AS OF TONIGHT, OUR JUDO CLASSES WILL BE ON HOLD.
KEEP CHECKING HERE PRIOR TO APRIL TO SEE WHEN WE WILL START UP CLASSES AGAIN. THE CONCERNS OVER THE VIRUS AND POSSIBILITIES OF PASSING ON THE VIRUS TO OTHERS IN CLASS THEN ON TO PEOPLE OUTSIDE OF JUDO HAS LED TO THIS DECISION.
As of this afternoon, the ILH Judo Tournament scheduled for this weekend has been cancelled due to CoronaVirus concerns.
