Everyone had a good number of matches. I was pleased to see people winning with technique.

Congratulations to all who competed. It is truly hard to get out on the mat and fight.

Since the Sheriff’s training center is closing we no longer have a venue for Saturday practice (I really appreciate Rich Gere arranging this for us while it lasted).
Pacific judo is having practice this Sunday if you need a judo workout over the weekend.
See everyone Monday.

The center is closed for Presidents day. Have a good day off and see everyone on Wednesday.

Just a note to let everyone know that we should be having practice on Saturday as usual.
I checked and we should be good for the next couple of weeks.

Saturday, March 7th 2015.
McCall Donnelly High School

McCall, ID 83638

Everyone should go.
The entry form is here.

The center is closed on Monday for the Martin Luther King holiday so practice is canceled.

It looks like there is a BJJ practice at Newborn Jiu Jitsu.
I don’t know what the cost is for the class but it would probably be fun.

This looks like a great opportunity for any brown/black belt to obtain promotion points (or instantly get promoted via Batsugun).
Basically, you get to fight matches against people of similar rank and you receive 1 point for each ippon and .5 point for each win by wazari.

Just a reminder about the judo holiday schedule.
We are closed on Christmas Eve (12/24/2014) and on New Year’s eve (12/31/2014).
Other than those days we should have practice, so Saturday 12/27/2014 is our next practice.
Hopefully people can make it.
Merry Christmas.

The long awaited and much anticipated Spokane Judo party is finally here!
When: Saturday, 12/20/2014 3:00-6:00

Where: Brett & Anna Marie’s house (2515 E 39th AVE)

What: Judo related discussion, videos, food, and general bulking up for the new year.

We would like to see everyone, if you haven’t been to practice in a while, this is the perfect opportunity to come back. If you are just a visitor from Pacific, come and join in. We want everyone and their friends.
If you want to bring something to share, feel free but it isn’t required.
