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.
