Month: July 2016

  • Self Defense clinic

    On Saturday August 13, Budokan Dojo in Seattle will be hosting a self defense clinic. This is an opportunity to become a USJF certified self defense instructor. The clinic begins with registration at 7:00 and ends at 5:00 that evening.
    I don’t have any additional info at present, but I am planning on attending.

  • Introductory Judo Referee Seminar

    On Saturday August 27, Budokan dojo is hosting an introductory class for referees. This is a good opportunity for anyone who want to become a referee to learn about refereeing in general and practice being a referee with constructive feedback.
    The clinic starts with registration at 9:30 and finishes at 2:30.
    The cost is $35 including lunch.
    I encourage everyone to attend.
    The entry form is here.

  • Announcing their Promotions

    I am always pleased to announce new promotions. Each new rank demonstrates an increasing commitment to judo and self improvement, both of which are things that are important and beyond most people.

      • Brent Accursio
      • Christopher B. Mitchell
  • 4th of July
