A summer of discovery and training.
The NWT Judo Association has seen its ranks strengthen with the arrival of new judo teachers during the 2020/2021 season.
This summer, Alexandre Paysan, French judo teacher, was on the mats.

SA国际影视传媒淔AMILY JUDOSA国际影视传媒� courses were run through the SA国际影视传媒渃ity programSA国际影视传媒� at the Multiplex every Tuesday evening. The little ones were able to have fun practicing judo with their parents.
In the dojo (judo room) of the NWT Judo Association, courses for adults allowed some to set foot in the stirrup and learn the basics before starting the new season calmly.
The last two weeks of August saw some 40 children from Yellowknife practice judo, learning techniques, Japanese terms, rules of community life such as respect and friendship. Everything took place in a serious and relaxed atmosphere with the setting up of sports and educational themed games.
The new season will start in September.
Several JUDO projects will be set up for the 2021/22 season.
The SA国际影视传媒渃ity programSA国际影视传媒� resumes on Sept. 23 at the Multiplex.
Other recreational or competitive judo lessons will be offered to adults in the Kam Lake dojo.
Paysan, a 5th dan black belt and pedagogical specialist will offer judo lessons during school time and other after-school lessons in certain schools in Yellowknife.
The association has plans to host a pre-Christmas competition in Yellowknife.
But judo is not confined to the capital of the NWT!
In the Dehcho, judo will continue in schools. In Inuvik, the Kuzuri Judo Club has plans to organize a competition in 2022. Other activities and other projects have already been discussed since June and should be implemented very soon (depending on sanitary conditions, activities will be adapted to continue throughout the season. At the time of writing, some classes are on hold until further notice)
