I wanted to congratulate Myles Freeman on his successful promotion test for purple belt. He had a large number of techniques to demonstrate and he did an excellent job.
With this promotion comes increased expectations. Myles will have to accept more responsibilities. He is definitely up to the task!

Yesterday, FOX had a great interview with some of the people at Pacific Judo about judo in general and the upcoming Junior Olympics.
You can watch the interview here.

It is definitely worth checking it out.

Chris and Ben Mitchell competed this weekend in Portland. Both of them did very well. Chris took 1st in the Masters division. In addition, Allen Monroe worked refereeing the tournament. All of them definitely made the rest of us at Spokane Judo look extremely good.

The community center is holding a town hall meeting on Monday in the gym so there will be no judo that night.
See everyone on Wednesday.

Congratulations to all the Spokane Judo competitors who came out and supported the tournament today.

I was also quite pleased to see the support for Spokane Judo from Allen Monroe and Myles Freeman reffing! John Freeman also was invaluable for his work on the scoring table, and thanks to Cheyenne Neal for warming the kids up (saving the old Senseis).
Thank you all for your participation!

We had a good turn out last night even though it was miserable out!

I wanted to thank all the Spokane Judo members who came out and supported the club.
Sensei Allen, Rya, Myles Freeman, Chris Mitchell, normal sized Mike Smith, big Mike Smith (the man in the suit), Sensei Oleg, and Sensei Anna Marie.
Particular thanks to Sensei Rich and Sensei John, without their expertise the class wouldn’t have been possible.

The club is only as good as its members and last night the club looked great!

Tomorrow is our women’s self defense class so no regular practice. If all the senior members can come and help that would be great. The class starts at 5:30 and ends at 9:00. If you can’t come right at 5:30, come late, we need your help.
Oh, if you know any women to bring, please do!
Thanks and see everyone tomorrow.

Mike Marcella at Pacific Judo has been kind enough to invite anyone from our club to come and practice Tuesday this week.
Their kids practice is at 6:00 and the teens/adult class is at 7:00 at the police academy.
Make sure to bring your USJF/USJA membership card.
Remember that Monday Jan 16 is MLK day so no practice and Wednesday Jan. 18 is our self defense class so this is a great opportunity to get in some practice this week.
The police academy is at :
