JUDO

Judo is a modern Japanese martial art and Olympic sport that focuses on throws, pins, and submissions rather than strikes. It was created by Jigoro Kano in 1882 with the idea of turning traditional jujutsu techniques into a safe, structured practice that builds both the body and mind. The name judo means “the gentle way” — it’s about using technique, balance, and timing rather than strength alone. Judo improves fitness, builds confidence, and teaches discipline, making it a fun and safe sport for all ages and levels. 

Judo offers something for everyone. It’s a fantastic way to get fit, build strength, and improve flexibility, while also learning practical self-defence skills. Beyond the physical benefits, judo teaches respect, discipline, and resilience — values that carry over into everyday life. Whether your goal is to compete, stay active, or simply try something new, judo provides a fun and supportive environment to grow.
