Seiwakan Judojo and Shudokan Judo Dojo are presenting this competition. The competition is on Saturday, Dec. 17 in Portland. The competition is in the afternoon and a kata workshop is held in the morning. Novices are encouraged to attend.
The entry form is here.
Just a reminder, we do have practice tonight. I hope everyone will be there.
Judo is there to help you meet the challenge of Thanksgiving dinner with a caloric deficit!
Just a few unrelated things.
First, we have another new member, Adam. Glad to have him on the mat
Second, last weekend was the Continental Crown tournament in Seattle. Allen went as a referee and passed his test to be a national ref! He can now work as a referee at national tournaments. This is a huge benefit to our club as we now have a current and accurate source of information on the latest rule changes. So any questions we have, Allen is the go to guy!
Finally, at the Continental Crown, Myles Freeman took 2nd in two separate divisions. More importantly, he won his first match with an arm bar! There is always something satisfying about making someone tap out.
The community Center is using the gym for a Halloween event on Monday, so there will be no practice that day. Everyone have a good weekend and Halloween and we will see everyone on Wednesday Nov. 1 at the usual time.
Also, I am really glad to see our new members sticking with judo, it is hard and most people don’t have the discipline to keep coming!
We have had a lot going on lately, but I have not forgotten!
I am pleased to announce the following promotions. Everyone here exhibited their ability to work hard. Mastery of the techniques is definitely progressing.
Judo just takes a long time to get good.
I just wanted to welcome our two new members this week, Peter and James. We are glad to have both of you on the mat.
We have had a lot of new members lately and I am sure I missed welcoming some of you. If so, I apologize, it doesn’t mean anything other than I am at fault.
Hope to see everyone next Monday at practice.
The Community Center is closed for Columbus day so we have to cancel practice for Monday 10/10. Have a nice weekend and we will see everyone on Wednesday.
(and great to have all the new members).

I just wanted to thank all of our members for their help in making the introduction to judo class a huge success. I couldn’t believe all the people we had on the mat. Let’s hope they all come back and sign up.
I was truly impressed with how all our members stepped up and helped the new people.
In addition, I wanted to thank Sensei Aaron Hillaire from Sakuma for his help.
