Judo is a very versatile martial art, an Olympic sport, and a discipline. Judo was founded in 1882 by Dr. Jigoro Kano. The art represents a combination of Jujitsu and wrestling. It incorporates throwing skills, grappling, and ground fighting skills, controlling techniques, and choking techniques.
The goals of Judo are maximum efficiency of the mind and body, as well as, mutual welfare and benefit of others. Students and competitors learn how to make the most effective use of their mental and physical energy. They work together and help each other develop skills. With this concept, Judo provides a method to improve oneself physically, mentally, and socially. Judo training can improve an individual's confidence, speed, power, strength, agility, and flexibility. It is a great activity for men and women, boys and girls of all ages.
Jujitsu training incorporates all the benefits of the Judo program, but is oriented for self-defense applications and includes many skills not used in Judo.
Students are required to be courteous to others, demostrate integrity and self-control, respect instructors and other students, and strive for excellence.
