Other information:

We encourage parents, family, team mates and friends to stay and watch the session. This is totally free of charge but we ask that when Sensei Jeon is talking that the spectators are silent as noise can be distracting for the participants and coaches (and Jeon). Please feel free to take as many photos as you like during the day (as long as not being intrusive to the class). Please share any good photos of the day with us for our historic records and website etc.

Sensei Jeon asks that no one videos the event. The superstars that we bring across do these seminars across the World and feel that snippets of the courses found on youtube and social media don’t always do them justice without the context of the session being shown. Ultimate Judo will be taking video of the day for our use after the event.

COACHES: Can all coaches looking to use the event for revalidation purposes please make sure that you sign in on the coaching sheet as well as normal check in. you will need to know your JS membership number.

As always if you have any questions regarding the event, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
