Why Judo
More than throws
A grappling art from Japan
Judo was founded by Jigoro Kano in the late 1800s as a modern form of jujutsu. It is built on throws, holds and submissions.
Fitness and coordination
Lots of movement and quick reflexes build flexibility, strength and endurance, along with balance and body control.
Focus and discipline
Judo takes concentration and strategy, and the sense of progress as you learn new techniques builds real self-confidence.
