What
Is Judo
Judo is a Martial Art. It is a system of unarmed combat and close quater defence
that uses the attackers strentgh and weakness to defeat them. All of the techniques were extracted from Jujitsu by Professor
Jigaro Kano around 1870 to form a comprehensive sport which he called Judo, (Gentle Way").
The techiniques
used are throws, arm locks, chokes, strangles and hold downs.
Today Judo is a well known Olympic sport and there
are various levels of competitions held from club level through to national level.
Judo is suitable for men, boys,
girls and women.
HOW DO I LEARN
You will be taughy by team of qualified
,freindly and understanding instructors. The hall where you will be taught will have mats laid on the floor to absorb the
impact of throws and avoid injury.
Safety is paramount in Judo, so the first thing a person learns is how to fall
safely, (breakfalls). Once this is learned the student moves onto to learning throws.
