What is Judo?
What is Judo?
Judo is a grappling martial art similar to jiu-jitsu, but does NOT include punching or kicking. Judo places emphasis on throws, pins, submission holds (+16 yrs. only) and arm-locks (+16 years only).
Is Judo Safe?
Judo is among the safest of all contact sports. As a martial art and Olympic sport, Judo is governed by the International Judo Federation (IJF), which has set strict safety guidelines for competition. To ensure safety at Western Judo Academy, all classes are held on world renown and IJF approved Zebra Mats and instructed by certified coaches. Most importantly however, our instructors are knowledgeable and always put safety first.
How will my child benefit from Judo?
"Judo, Tai Chi, and other martial arts can improve a child’s mind and body when parents match their kids with the right program- and the right teacher”- Nancy Christie (Better Homes and Gardens April 2005)
The benefits of participating in our unique program include improvements in: school grades, self-discipline, self-esteem, behavior at home, overcoming shyness, self-control, fitness, coordination, flexibility, listening skills, manners, and skills in other sports. Judo is an activity all kids can participate equally.
In addition to receiving instruction in judo, each class will contain lessons on topics such as: dealing with bullies, manners/etiquette, setting and achieving goals, self-control, showing respect for parents and teachers, the value and importance of telling the truth and good sportsmanship.
