  • Upcoming Kata Clinic

    There will be a clinic on Itsutsu no Kata on 9/17/2011 in Coos Bay OR. This is a really interesting kata and a good opportunity to learn a kata we do not practice.

    It is $30 and includes lunch details can be found on the flyer : http://dl.dropbox.com/u/529018/ItsutsukataFlyer.doc

    This is an extremely rarely taught kata; it is very difficult to get instruction in it.  It is also ‘very unusual’ covering the more spiritual/symbolic side of Judo versus say Nage no Kata.
