The Lot-et-Garonnais Judo Committee will meet this Saturday, January 18, at the Agen Stadium to celebrate the new year. The Japanese martial art brings together, in the department, some 2,500 licensees spread across 37 clubs.
A practice which will be honored during this traditional ceremony called, in the language of Kurosawa, the “Kagami Biraki”, inherited from the time of the samurai. If the practitioners have since put away the katanas, it will still be a question since the twins Hector and Julian Vincent, originally from Bias, will be presented with a saber offered by the Committee 47 and its president Thierry de Redon, after having finished third in the championships of world Hopes of judo kata, in Las Vegas, the first world medal for Lot-et-Garonnais judo.
Demonstrations
If they will not be demonstrated this Saturday, it is to better leave room, from 6 p.m., for the duo Loïc Auffret and Jérémy Louws who will show off their know-how. The juniors and cadets will take over with standing and ground combat techniques. All under the watchful eye of several senior French officers who will travel for the ceremony, including the godfather and 9e then, Serge Feist.
