Deep in the heart of the historical state of Massachusetts, known for its old red-brick buildings, autumn leaves, and clam chowder, a group of extraordinary kids are busy mastering the art of Judo. This is no ordinary land, and these are no ordinary children. Massachusetts, or as the locals lovingly call it, "Mass," is as magical as Hogwarts, as adventurous as Neverland, and as enchanting as Wonderland. Meet Tobey Tailwind, a squirrel who wears a judo gi and a black belt. You will find him in every Judo class, excitedly chittering instructions and demonstrating moves with a spectacular flying squirrel somersault. His fur, fluffed up like a martial arts master's hair, has earned him the nickname "Sensei Squirrel." The children, Tobey's students, are a diverse and lively crew. There's Billy the Bostonian, who can flip pancakes as well as he can flip opponents. Then there's Salem the Swift, so fast that she could dodge a raindrop. Don't forget Martha from Martha's Vineyard, a vine-swinging genius who uses her island skills in the dojo. Last but not the least, there's Cape Cod's own Cody, known for his "Codfish Sweep" move that can sweep anyone off their feet. They flip, they throw, they roll, they laugh! There is never a dull moment in their Judo class. It's like watching a bunch of noodles flipping around in a pot, only these noodles wear colorful belts and giggle a lot. These kids, under the watchful eye of Tobey Tailwind, learn not just Judo, but also the values of discipline, respect, and friendship. So, welcome to Massachusetts, where history meets hilarity, and Judo isn't just a sport, but a fun-filled adventure that awaits every child.

At Shodokan, we make sure each of our arts have dedicated instructors so our members can 'cross train' and focus on one art while learning from all of them. We don't require members to specialize in any one art and instead encourage them to explore and learn from our variety of offerings. Our Dojo is a relaxed, welcoming place to learn, but we also hold our members to high standards of respect and discipline as we strive to help them reach their full potential.
