We just launched the Mrs. Judo Community Engagement Series at the Asian Art Museum in San Francisco last Thursday (photos above). The event featured a live demonstration of Fukuda Sensei's signature "Ju-No-Kata" by Wilina Monar and Pam Mery, with narration by Fran Christie of Soko Joshi Dojo. And was followed by the film screening and an engaging panel discussion that illuminated the depth of judo teachings and inspiration received from Keiko Fukuda's life. Panelists included 2012 Olympic bronze medalist Marti Malloy, film director Yuriko Gamo Romer, lead instructor at Soko Joshi Judo Wilina Monar and scholar/mixed media artist Amy Fujiwara Shen.  Please share your feedback on the event by taking our survey here. Our next event in the series will be held on Saturday, November 16th at the Japanese American National Museum in Los Angeles.
