Before and after practicing Judo or engaging in a match, opponents bow to each other. Bowing is an expression of gratitude and respect. In effect, you are thanking your opponent for giving you the opportunity to improve your technique.
       Prof. Jigoro Kano (1860 - 1938)

This is a very exciting season for the club as we are celebrating our 50^th Anniversary!

Judo is practiced by more than 100 million people in more than 200 countries worldwide.
