Congratulations to all of the kids and adults from the Kirkwood Judo Club that got on the mat at this weekends Tournament. Everyone did great and your instructors could not be prouder of you. -Sensei Russ

Some members of the Kirkwood Judo Club had a great time visiting the Konjo Dojo in Imperial MO on Saturday, for their tournament prep class. Their tournament is coming up in less than two weeks on Saturday March 26th. Are you ready?

I'm certain that this won't come as a surprise to anyone but Judo at the KJC is canceled for tonight. Stay safe.

Today’s Google Doodle features the founder of Judo, Dr Jigoro Kano.

Kanō Jigorō's 161st Birthday Kanō Jigorō's 161st Birthday!

Thanks to everyone who came out to support the Kirkwood Judo Clubs Demo at the Missouri Botanical Gardens Annual Japanese Festival.

Around 150 spectators got a chance to see great examples of the sport and Martial Art that we all love, and some even better examples of the people who practice it.

So on this day last year we had one of the best First Friday Night Fights ever. Let's do it again tonight. Tonight's workout will feature Tom Kuhne, and KJC alumni "Captain" Jack Heuroff.

We will also be celebrating the birthdays of Kevin Frate, John Rhodes, and Adnan Gutic.

This is an event not to be missed.

See you at 7:30 at the Kirkwood Judo Club.
