Friends, It's world Judo day! World Judo day is when we celebrate the birthday of the founder of our school Dr. Jigoro Kano, and his contributions! After exiting the tribulations of 2020 like many of you I felt the need to stretch myself, and so the spirit of judo called to me again, to be of service in some small way. Judo is a martial art, philosophy, sport, and method for navigating life. In judo you practice techniques that instill control over ones body, mind and spirit yet learn of of how gentleness triumphs over strength, and how we all fail, fall and rise again. Like everything in Judo, no technique is happenstance. On the contrary, there is a persistent and gentle strategy, and so to there is also a gentle strategy to this year's world judo day theme: Solidarity! In preparation, I've spoken with local leaders, educators, and workers to get at the spirit of solidarity. What does it mean in our current context of human society and culture. How can we show it ? I've have been writing an article for the Arizona Sun on this very topic in celebration of today, I'll be doing a Livestream and video on the subject later today, so feel free to hang out and celebrate with me, and all the other 50 million judoka around the world
Peace and Prosperity for all!

Happy Birthday Kano O-sensei! Thanks for showing us a gentle a path forward for humanity! Let's rededicate ourselves to the study of Judo and to Dr. Kano's goal of solidarity, equality, peace and prosperity for all.
