Borders Summer School is joining in the Golden Jubilee celebrations...

7-10th August

Borders Summer School is joining in the Golden Jubilee celebrations by inviting two eminent Japanese Sensei to their event, which runs between August 7 and 10th in Innerleithen, Scottish Borders. Mr. Hosaka, Kodokan 8th Dan and Technical Advisor to the BJC will be running an FPJ I course on the Sat and Sunday, after taking a general class on the Friday. Mr. Yamamoto, also a Kodokan 8th Dan, will also be in attendance from the Friday onwards. The course will also feature the teachings of Mr. G R Mealing, 7th Dan, Moira Newton 5th Dan and George Temperton, 5th Dan. The Borders event is the most northern event run by the BJC and gives an excellent chance to visit Scotland and get involved in a top class judo event.
