Hanabi Judo

Our goal is to become a healthy and fun part of your life. We have produced over a hundred state, national, and international champions, but most of our members don’t actually compete but simply enjoy working out and learning in our friendly atmosphere. We have classes of various levels for children and adults and we especially welcome women (who, not relying on strength, learn technique very quickly.) Our head instructor, 6th degree black belt Dan Augustine, won the U.S. Senior National Championship in 1984 and was the alternate to the 1988 Olympics. He won the U.S. Master’s Championship in 1993 and 1994. He holds a master’s degree in education and has taught in New York, Tokyo, and Berkeley. He speaks both Japanese and Spanish. You can join us at any time. Regular promotional exams will have you going from white belt to yellow and, hopefully, all the way to black. Friends and family are always welcome to watch.
