Happy World Judo Day! Team Budokan is all about Jita-Kyoei, mutual welfare and benefit, and our families, judoka, and senseis are at the heart of it all ❤️ …

Judoka from around the PNW gained so much from his exercises, drills, and technical instruction. Thank you to everyone for attending and supporting the clinic. It was a bittersweet day! …

☀️SEATTLE DOJO SUMMER JUDO CAMP 2025 ☀️

Another year, another unforgettable Summer Judo Camp in the books! It was wonderful to see the students learning, meeting new friends, reconnecting with old ones, and coming together on the tatami to share, play, practice, and enjoy randori, movie time, and games. We couldn’t have done this without the support of parents, volunteers, senseis, and the awesome kids from other dojos who joined us.

THANK YOU for making this camp such a blast!
Sensei Karol and Sensei Pepper are so grateful for each of you and already looking forward next year summer camp! 😎🥋☀️🤝
