Special Thanks

Mike Swain

Thank you for your generous support toward our dojo! 

Chiharu Saito

We would like to especially thank Ms. Chiharu Saito for the calligraphy of Sekai kanji on the Club's Judogi. 

She started to learn calligraphy at the age of 6 and by college had mastered a brush writing technique by learning from Chinese classic works.  Her calligraphy writings have been exhibited 11 times at the Sogen Shodo 1st Category Exhibition.  In addition, she was awarded the Shuitsu Excellence Award on two occasions.  In 2018, her calligraphy piece was chosen for display at the prestigious 70th Mainichi Shodo Exhibition. 

We are very honored to wear her calligraphy on our Judogi.
