  • KREM 2 news at East Central

    This Wednesday June 5, KREM news is coming to do a segment on the community center. As part of this, we would like to show them what judo is like and demonstrate why judo is the greatest sport.
    I would like to have as many people at practice as possible. Even if you have been skipping practice lately, please come. The community center and the judo club need all of you to show support.

    They are going to put this on the 5:00 news that night so we will have to start practice early. I would like to have people at the community center at 4:30 so we can put out mats and get ready.

    If you have any questions, please feel free to email me or just ask tonight.

    Hope to see everyone there.

  • Have a good Memorial day weekend

    Just wanted to remind everyone that there is no practice Saturday or Monday for the holiday weekend.
    See everyone on Wednesday.

  • Congratulations on their Promotions

    Everyone did a good job on the recent promotion testing. I noticed however that (as usual) right after the promotions, people tend to skip practice.

    • Sankyu:

      • Joshua Wardian

  • Self Defense Demonstration

    I just wanted to thank all of the members of our club who came out last night for the self defense demonstration. I hope everyone had fun.

    I would like to particularly thank Sensei Rich for teaching the class. As usual he did an excellent job.

  • Self Defense Class (2/21/2013)

    We will be holding a self defense class for the Washington State University Nutrition and Exercise Physiology
    Club on Thursday Feb. 21 from 6:00-7:30 at the Sheriff’s Training Center.
    I hope all of the seniors can attend as we will need your assistance.

    Directions are here.

  • Congratulations to John Yen

    He took 2nd in the 81kg division at the Continental Crown yesterday. This officially makes him a nationally ranked player. Nice job.

  • Practice Monday (and a birthday)

    Just a reminder that Monday, 12/10, practice will be at 5:30 at the Sheriff’s Training Center (see previous post for directions).

    There will be no practice this Saturday 12/8 as I didn’t have a lot of interest.

    Also, one of our members, Greg Kvasov, forgot to tell me today is his birthday, so Monday will be our chance to throw him.
    Hopefully everyone will come to partake.

  • Congratulations on their Promotions

    Everyone did a nice job on their promotion testing.
    Keep it up.
