SUCCESS IS AN ON-GOING PROCESS
Founded in 1969 by Steve Scott, the Welcome Mat Judo and Jujitsu Club is the oldest active judo club in the Kansas City area. While we make no boastful claims, Welcome Mat does have a proud tradition of success. We have developed many champions (over 250 individual athletes from Welcome Mat have won U.S. national championships in judo, sambo, sport jujitsu and submission grappling) and the technical expertise here is respected and recognized nationally. We take pride that our program offers instruction for all levels of interest. Whether you want to become a competitive athlete, seek practical self-defense instruction or are looking for an interesting martial art to study, Welcome Mat has a lot to offer. Whatever your goals may be, you will find excellent training at Welcome Mat. Through the years, we have been successful in coaching people in judo, jujitsu, sambo and submission grappling and have used these activities to instill positive values that make a difference in many lives. We offer a positive, open atmosphere, yet retain the traditional discipline that the martial arts emphasize. We have programs for adults and kids and welcome everyone to participate. Welcome Mat is a community based program that has purposely housed itself in community centers and other public places since its inception. It is our intention to offer top quality coaching and instruction for a fair and inexpensive financial cost. We attempt to keep our prices low by offering excellent instruction through participating community centers and other facilities. Welcome Mat offers training in a variety of facilities listed on the Dojos and Links page. Steve Scott personally teaches classes at the Sylvester Powell Community Center and the Kansas City North Community Center. If you are interested in training with us, call Steve Scott at (816) 210-4484 or send an e-mail to Steve at stevescottjudo@yahoo.com for more information.
