Happy Give Day 2025!
Western's judo club has been around since the 80s, and we're still going strong with regular practices typically consisting of 10-20 people. We are an inclusive club open for all to join, regardless of skill level or background. A great place to begin learning this awesome martial art!
Last summer, an enthusiastic group of WWU Judo students traveled to Japan to study judo where it began- at the Kodokan! Thanks to donations and support from you!
It was incredible, for six weeks we stayed in the Kodokan dorms and did judo everyday it was offered, sometimes even twice a day. When classes weren't in session we explored Tokyo, experiencing the bustling city, gorgeous parks, and incredible food. We made friends with many others from both Tokyo and around the world, sharing the goal of learning judo. An unforgettable experience. We came back with insightful knowledge of Kodokan judo thanks to the wisdom and kindness of senseis we trained with. We also gained a deeper understanding of Japanese culture and customs.
Your gift is greatly appreciated in helping us reach our goals. Your generosity will directly help support keeping the judo club strong.
Thank you so very much for donating to our club, or sharing our page.
