  • Congratulations to John Yen

    I am pleased to announce that John Yen finished 5th in the COLLEGIATE National Championship yesterday. He had the largest division in the tournament and did very well with such a large pool.
    In competition, one of the hardest things to do is come back on the mat after a loss and fight to win and John was able to do that quite nicely.

  • Christmas Party (the day after)

    I just wanted to thank everyone for attending the Christmas party last night. In particular Sensei Marci and Sensei Anna Marie really made the party a success.
    Happy holidays to everyone. We will see you on the mat Wednesday (12/14).

  • Introduction to judo class cancelled

    The introduction to judo class scheduled for this Saturday, Oct. 22, has been cancelled.
    Apparently there weren’t enough people registered to attend. This event will probably be rescheduled for sometime in the future.
    Thanks to everyone who agreed to come and help out. I will probably hit you all up again sometime soon.

  • Introduction to judo class

    On October 22, we will be teaching an introduction to judo class for several groups of visually impaired kids and adults. I would like to get several volunteers to come and help teach the class. The class will be next Saturday, October 22, from 10:00am-2:00PM at the Warehouse Athletic Facility (click here for directions).
    More information about the event is in this document: Spokane Paralympic Experience.
    If you can only stay part of the time, I would still appreciate your help.

    Please let me know at practice if you will be able to assist.

  • Lost Obi

    One of the visitors to our club this summer lost his orange/green belt size 0.
    If someone has it, please let me know.

  • Youth Camp

    There will be a youth camp (ages 14-18) on 9/16, 9/17 and 9/18. I encourage anyone eligible to attend as this will be a great opportunity to start getting ready for the USJF Junior Nationals here in Spokane next summer.
    More info here.

  • Lost Judo Gi

    Allen has lost his Mizuno gi. In early August, someone picked up Allen’s gi by mistake and left their size 6 HSU gi. He would like it back. So if you have it, send me a message through the contact form and I will let him know.
    His gi is a white Mizuno size 5.5.
