I am happy to announce that kata is back and that there will be weekly sessions held on Tuesdays starting on October 4th at the Tokugawa Judo Club (see attached schedule). People can pick and choose activities that might be of interest. Kata is not just for grading! It is another aspect of judo that will give you insight into the principles and heritage of judo. The more participants getting involved with kata, the better, especially the teens. So please let others know and we will see you on the mat.
