Judo

A self-defense martial art and sport based on leverage, control, and ground-fighting techniques.

Judo is a system of unarmed combat created in 1882 by Jigoro Kano who’s objective is to throw an opponent, immobilize them with a pin, or force an opponent to submit with a joint lock or a choke. Judo’s philosophy revolves around two primary principles: “Seiryoku-Zenyo” (精力善用 lit. maximum efficient use of energy) and “Jita-Kyoei” (自他共栄, lit. mutual welfare and benefit.)   Sparring, and live drilling play a major role in training and the practitioner’s development. In this program one will learn the foundations and execution of off-balancing or lifting an opponent, and throwing them to the ground with proper control and technique, advancing to a control position or pinning combination and how to administer proper controlled submission techniques. Conversely one will learn proper defense against attacks from an aggressive opponent with maximum efficient use of energy. Pricing:
