Judo is a modern martial art and Olympic sport created by Jigoro Kano in Japan in 1882. It evolved from the ancient art of Jujutsu, focusing on throws, joint locks, and pins rather than strikes.

The essence of Judo lies in the principle of “maximum efficiency with minimum effort,” utilizing an opponent’s force to execute techniques effectively.
Practitioners, known as judokas, train in both standing techniques (tachi-waza) and ground techniques (ne-waza), aiming to unbalance and control their opponents.
Judo also emphasizes moral and physical development, promoting values such as respect, humility, and perseverance.

Our training sessions are designed for everyone, from experienced practitioners to complete beginners. Held every Monday from 20:30 to 22:00 and Wednesday from 20:45 to 22:15, our traingings focus on making you a complete judoka through a balanced mix of technical practice, tactical theory, and randori (sparring).

The technical sessions will help you nail down the basic moves and forms, building a solid foundation. As you progress, you will improve these skills through tactical practice, learning to apply them strategically. During randori, you can test your techniques in dynamic, real-time situations. These sessions are all about putting your skills into practice and boosting your agility, strategic thinking, and confidence.

Newcomers are welcome to join a couple of lessons. We’ll make sure you learn to fall safely and lend you a judo gi (jacket). After training, we often hang out at the bar for some refreshments and socializing, so come join us!
