Ojukan Moving April 1 2019

Leave a reply

    Ojukan Judo Club Members and Families – This letter is to keep club members and families informed about some exciting changes coming to the Ojukan Judo Club.

    The first change is we are moving to a new facility at the end of March, as the Hillsboro Armory is being sold to the Washington County Fair Grounds. The new location is Angel’s Bootcamp located at 5749 NW Cornelius Pass Road Hillsboro, Oregon 97124. Angel’s Bootcamp is a wonderful facility which includes a sprung floor!

    The second change is our schedule; we will be running classes on Monday and Wednesday evenings from 7:00pm to 8:30pm with the option to stay until 8:45pm for some free practice or individual instruction. We will start practicing at the new location on Monday April 1st.

    The third change is we will be raising our dues to 55 dollars per month or 150 dollars for three months. This is due to a higher overhead cost of the new facility. The family discount will remain with the adjusted fee schedule. Please contact any of the Ojukan Instructors with further questions and we look forward to seeing everyone at the new facility.

Hillsboro School District Closure Notifications

It is the policy of Ojukan Judo that during inclement weather, if the Hillsboro school district closes so does Ojukan. Check the link above for status. You do not need to call/text anyone or send email. However, we will publish info via email and our web site (ojukanjudo.org).

Happy New Year Ojukan!

Leave a reply

Happy New Year!

The staff at Ojukan hope you have had a great 2017 and are happy and healthy and looking forward to all of the great possibilities that lie ahead for 2018.

And what better way to get the year off to a fresh start than by dropping in to the dojo for Judo practice!

1st practice of 2018
Ojukan returns to our normal practice schedule tomorrow, Tuesday night, January 2nd. Wash your gi. Come on in. Work off some of those holiday desserts! And get a start on your 2018 Judo goals and practice.

New Pricing for 2018
Our expenses are going going up. We need to adjust our rates to accommodate. Fortunately, our dues are only going up $5/month and are still the best martial arts bargain in town. Moving forward the monthly rate will be $45, and if you pay for 3 months, the price = $120 (a $15 discount).

Recent Promotions
Last month we held testing, and two of our students were promoted:

~Riccardo Morescalchi was promoted to yonkyu (blue belt)
~Phong Ly was promoted to sankyu (3rd-degree brown belt)

Congratulations, Riccardo and Phong, much deserved promotions. Keep it up. We all want to see black belts around your waist in the future. You’ve made great progress.

Help Promote Ojukan
Online marketing on the Internet is an interesting process. Right now Ojukan judo comes up on Google searches, but its not always near the top of the search results, so the public doesn’t necessarily see our club when they go looking for places to practice on the west side. So one thing each of you can do to help out, and it wont cost you a single penny, is to submit a review of Ojukan in Yelp! Yep, Yelp reviews bump businesses up higher in Google’s search results.

Follow the link below and give us a good word:

https://www.yelp.com/biz/ojukan-judo-hillsboro?osq=Judo

Training Goals for 2018
Do you have your training goals written down for 2018? Do you have goals? If not, you’re in luck because its a new year, time for thinking ahead, thinking about the kind of life and lifestyle you want for yourself. January is a great time to review where you’ve been and where you plan to go. Please feel free to talk it over with the Ojukan staff. That’s why we’re here! Some of you want to start competing, some of you want to earn a gold medal, some of you want to earn a promotion in rank, others want to get in better condition, lose weight, improve flexibility, some of you want to work on shaping and perfecting their favorite (or not so favorite!) techniques!

And the staff wants to improve how we teach. Always.

It’s all good.

Ojukan Winter Weather Policy/Ojukan Holiday Practice Schedule

Leave a reply

Ojukan Winter Weather Policy/Ojukan Holiday Practice Schedule

Folks:

Couple of quick things. Regarding inclement weather, hazardous driving conditions, etc., related to winter, it is Ojukan’s policy to close on the same days that the Hillsboro school district closes classes. That way you don’t have rely on email, phone calls, FaceBook, etc., for notifications. If Hillsboro schools close, Ojukan will close.

Holiday practice schedule. We will not hold Judo classes the week of December 25th. We will practice the week before and the week after. Tuesday December 26th and Thursday December 28th there will be no Judo practice.

Enjoy!

Testing/Grading @ Ojukan, Thursday November 30th

Leave a reply
Folks:
Just a reminder, we test/grade students every quarter at Ojukan. It’s a great way to re-enforce basics with our students and to give the teaching staff a chance to review class progress and determine what kinds of techniques or theories need more focus.
So, this email is being sent to remind folks that we will be testing on Thursday, November 30th.
Whether you are eligible (time in grade) for promotion or not, the entire class undergoes the assessment.  Just another day in Judo!
Between now and then; show up, train hard, pay attention and ask questions.  Find out what you are expected to know, see if you can step up to the next level and figure out what that will take.
Thanks!

2018 IJF Rule Changes – What’s Old Is New Again

Leave a reply

https://www.ijf.org/news/show/detailed-explanation-of-the-ijf-judo-refereeing-rules

1. Waza-Ari-Awasatte-Ippon is being reinstated. That means two waza-ari equals ippon. Yuko has not been reinstated. That means what was formerly yuko is considered waza-ari.

2. Under previous rules when uke rolls over his back, a waza-ari would be given. Under the new rules it seems there is such a thing as a rolling ippon provided “there is no break during the landing”.

3. Landing on the elbow or hands is counted as waza-ari.

4. Bridging (on the back) by uke has long resulted in ippon. But in the past year, referees having been giving hansoku-make for uke landing on the front of his head. I guess you could call this a front bridge. Now it’s official: front-bridging is hansoku-make However, just because uke’s head hits the mat doesn’t mean it’s automatically hansoku-make for uke. For throws like drop seoi-nage, drop sode and drop koshi-guruma, sometimes uke’s head just hits the mat whether he likes it or not. In such cases, it’s not hansoku-make

5. There is a type of osaekomi ocassionally seen whereby tori has both legs underneath uke. This used to be recognized as a legitimate hold-down. Not anymore. This is not osaekomi anymore.

6. Golden score can only be won by a technical score (waza-ari or ippon) or hansoku-make

This one is a bit vague but it seems that shido cannot win during Golden Score anymore. Only waza-ari, ippon and hansoku-make can decide a contest. If this interpretation is correct it means that during Golden Score, assuming both players have no scores and no shido, the match doesn’t end even if someone gets one or two shidos. Only scores and hansoku-make count.

7. Not taking a classic grip will be penalised by shido if there is not an immediate attack

When the rules were revised after the 2016 Rio Olympics, it was initially decided that the refs would give more time for unconventional grips (e.g. cross grip) compared to before that where there needed to an immediate attack. Now, it seems to have reverted back to immediate attack for any grip that is deemed unconventional. The following trips all require “immediate” attack other shido will be given.

8. Leg grabs will be given shido each time.

When leg grabs were first banned, it resulted in immediate hansoku-make. After the 2016 Rio Olympics, the first leg grab is given shido and the second hansoku-make. Now, a leg grab is considered a normal shido infringement so you could theoretically infringe the no-leg-grab rule twice and still survive. The third time of course results in hansoku-make.

9. Strangles are often done with tori holding onto one of uke’s legs. If that leg is stretched straight, a matte will be called. A situation where tori could previously injure the legs and muscles of uke.

10. Just because uke is on both knees doesn’t mean it’s newaza. If tori has grip control and attacks immediately, he can score. However, if there is a break in action, matte will be called.
