The Clovis Judo Club Information

As a student of the Fowler Judo Club in 1957, Sensei Takeda studied under the late Professor Toshitaka Yamauchi, 8th Dan, and Sensei Frank Kawano, 6th Dan. Professor Yamauchi was a student of the late Professor Jigoro Kano, founder of Kodokan Judo. The Club strives to develop Judo techniques, self-control and respect for others. It is known for its spirited competitors in Shiai and recognized for having developed local, regional, state and national champions. The students of the West Clovis Judo Club have always had the reputation for showing good conduct, spirit, self-control, and good sportsmanship. As a non-profit organization, the Club is highly dependent upon private, tax-deductible contributions and volunteer support for its continuing existence. The Club is fortunate to have strong parent and family cooperation and support. Many businesses and individuals help and support the club activities by donating money, time, or materials. The instructors and club officers are volunteers and are not paid for their time, materials, or services. Location and Times
