On Friday, October 4th, DC Judo was honored to welcome Counsellor Sagisaka and Ms. Nonaka from the Public Affairs Section of the Embassy of Japan to observe our practice. DC Judo members were eager to share their love of judo and to hear Counselor Sagisaka's insights regarding the value of sharing in the culture of other nations to build mutual understanding. We sincerely appreciated the opportunity to host Counsellor Sagisaka and Ms. Nonaka and look forward to taking advantage of some of the cultural opportunities offered by the Embassy of Japan, such as those offered by the Japan Information and Culture Center.

Judo Saikou!
