Purpose:
The purpose of the Sunday Joshi/Wahine Competition Class is to provide a compassionate, goal-oriented, uplifting, safe, and supportive space for us -- motivated and committed girls and women -- to reach our goals through competitive judo.
A person without a plan is a person who plans to fail.
Plan your work; work your plan.
Without a goal, the path forward is unclear.
Without a destination, you will never arrive.
Before you step onto the mat:
have a S.M.A.R.T. goal
Specific
Measurable
Achievable
Relevant
Time-bound
have long hair tied up completely off your eri (collar)
if you need assistance, we can help
In order for our precious time together to be intentional, efficient, and fruitful, all participants must have a goal or reason for being on the mat. This goal or reason must be personal (“I statements”) and well-defined/measurable (e.g. I want to medal at States; I want to be strong enough to be able to do 25 push-ups, etc.). Not sure how to make a SMART goal? Let us know by contacting us. We can help.
