ABOUT
YOUTH
JUDO
Judo, meaning “the gentle way”, is a Japanese martial art founded by Jigoro Kano in the late 19th century. It developed out of traditional Jiu-Jitsu, the combat system of the samurai, but Kano refined and adapted it by removing dangerous elements and creating a practice centered on education, fitness, mutual respect, and character development. Today, Judo is practiced worldwide as both an Olympic competitive sport, a form of recreational practice, and a lifelong path of personal growth.
At its heart, Judo teaches values that shape both body and mind: respect for
partners, discipline, perseverance, and the principle of Jita-Kyoei (“mutual welfare
and benefit”). Students of all levels train together, helping one another progress while developing skill and confidence.
Our Youth Judo program is held earlier in the evening so kids get the best out of class and can get home early.
