Great tournament in Plano, Texas. Eastside Dojo Summer Slam! Conner, Ludmilla, Corbin, Thomas, Keira, Marina, and Violet gained some medals and some amazing experience. Not every match needs to be a win to learn how to be a better judoka and we as coaches are proud of all our young athletes for pushing through hard matches. Thanks to all the parents for supporting their children and Kokoro Judo.

Parents, no Judo today in Georgetown. Boys and Girls Club is closing early today and on Monday due to weather and holiday. I know your kids will miss kissing the earth with their face, but we’ll be back on the mats on Friday next week! See you then.!

Parents, please take a look at this pdf for a rough idea of major judo events that we can expect to attend. I'm going to request an updated PDF for the 2024 season, but we can expect to attend these tournaments in 2024. Regional tournaments in OK, NM, LA will also be a focus for 2024.
