Welcome to the Hebi Ashi Dojo

News Page!

Congratulations to Donnie Plumly and Eric Leidner!!!!!

Both of these young men took 2nd place in their divisions in a Jiu-jitsu Tournament hosted by usgrappling Sat Aug 2nd 2008 held at the U Turn in Richmond VA. !!

I am very proud of both of these young men.

The competition was for points and 3 or 4 minute round, depending on your experience etc.

The Harrisonburg Dojo trains in Jiu-jitsu Mon-Weds and Sat mornings. These guys were competing with guys that train in Jiu-jitsu 4 to 6 days a week, and still placed in the top two!!

The tournament was very well organized and run well! They had 100-150 competitors maybe more!

This Summer Camp with the Chikubu-Kai, the Harrisonburg Dojo had two students to take two awards!

The Most Improved Male Junior was

Jacob Emmerman

Jacob is The son of Dan and Theresa Emmerman and brother to Sagan. Jacob is 7 years old and made quite an impression on Bill Price, Soke head of the Chikubu-Kai as this was his choice for this outstanding award!

The Most Improved Male Adult was

Donnie Plumly

I am very proud, as is all of the Hebi Ashi Dojo membership of these two members!

Michael Fletcher, Shihan

The Harrisonburg Hebi Ashi Dojo had special guest Shihan Shoji Kiyama from Japan to train with the membership of the Harrisonburg Dojo July 9th 2008! Kiyama, Shihan taught the JoDo to the Hebi Ashi membership. The Jo is a weapon that is 50" in length and 1" in diameter. The JoDo that Kiyama Shihan trains in has been handed down for the past 450 years so there is a lot of history!

Kiyama, Shihan is Michael Fletcher, Shihan JoDo Sensei, and has been training with Kiyama, Shihan since 1992.

Kiyama, Shihan is the 7 time ALL JAPAN Champion with the Jo!

Proud of you Donnie
