I hope everyone is staying healthy (and missing judo).
Not surprisingly, some upcoming tournaments have been cancelled.
The list is:
March 20-21, Obukan’s 64th Annual Tournament, postponed
April 18, Budokan Tournament, postponed
April 25, Battle by the Lake, cancelled
May 2, Seattle Dojo, cancelled
Here is an updated schedule of upcoming events.

The sad news is that there is no judo for 6 weeks. The good news is that this is the perfect opportunity to do 100 pushups.
And coincidentally this is a 6 week program.
Go to: hundred pushups
Let’s all get there by the time we are on the mat again. Start with week 1.
As most of you know, we are moving from Rings-&-Things to a new location at Lilac City Fit Body Boot Camp.
Saturday March 14 (Pi day) is the big move. We need all your help to get our mats moved.
We are planning to meet at Rings-&-Things at 8:00 to move the mats.
Please join us to help with the move.
Come one come all for the last night of practice at Rings-&-Things! We need everyone on Saturday to help us move, but come to practice tonight to enjoy our old space one last time. Hope to see everyone there!

Due to the ongoing virus situation, this tournament has been postponed. If/when this changes, I will post updated info.
Alaina recently competed in a tournament in Germany (taking bronze!).
Here is a blog post about it: Alaina’s trip to Germany
All her hard work definitely was worth it.
I look forward to writing many more posts like this one!

On Feb. 8, Alaina will be at the German Open competing. After the tournament there is a 2 day training camp.
I am sure she will do an excellent job representing Spokane Judo.
If you are interested in more information about the event, it is here.
Attending these types of events is expensive. If you can help her out, she has a GoFundMe pagehere.
Best of luck to Alaina.
