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.

Introductory Judo Referee Seminar
Postponing Summer Swimming
Just a note that we are postponing the swimming party originally scheduled for this Saturday as the weather doesn’t look good (this is mostly intended to remind Sensei Oleg who seems unclear on the cancellation).
We may try for July 1 if that works for people.
Have a good weekend and see everyone at practice Monday.Honored to Announce
I am truly honored to announce the promotions of Allen Monroe and Aleksi Lee. Their sustained hard work and dedication has earned them the rank of shodan. I wish I could say things are easier from now on but quite the opposite, we now expect more from them with regard to running the club and contributing to judo.
Their promotions were definitely deserved as they both exemplify what a shodan should be.
Officer Yen!
This is not judo related but I thought it is worth recognizing the accomplishments of people in judo.
Good job Aleksi!
Aleksi won the 66KG brown belt division at the USA Senior Nationals. His hard work really paid off!
Nage No Kata Clinic was Great!
I just wanted to thank everyone who came to the clinic yesterday. Attendance was outstanding.
In particular, I wanted to thank the Senseis Mike and Delynn Purcell for making the clinic possible at all. Also, the members of Columbia Dojo were outstanding!Kata Clinic this coming weekend
Just a reminder that we need everyone to be at the kata clinic this Saturday. Not only do all of us need to learn the kata, but the club needs your help. Please make sure you can attend.

New Practice Time
Just a reminder that starting next week on Monday March 7, practice will be from 6:30-8:30 on both Monday and Wednesday.
Hopefully some of you that have been missing practice lately can make the new practice time.
See everyone tonight.
