Recreational Judo

This class is designed for recreational and beginners participants without any prior Judo experience. Judoka will be introduced to the fundamentals of Judo. These classes offer adults the opportunity to work at their own pace as they are introduced to the basics of falling techniques, footwork and basics of posture. The emphasis is not competition, but the chance to get fit, meet new people, move up the grade system with the aim of achieving their black belt, and have fun. The ultimate goal is 'perfection' of techniques.
