Judo is an Olympic martial art focused on throwing and grappling. In judo, practitioners (called Judoka), compete in individual matches to throw, pin, or submit their opponents. Judo is founded on the principles of maximum efficiency and minimal effort, which means that judo favours practitioners of all sizes and abilities! Judo has been an Olympic Martial Art and sport since the Tokyo games in 1964. As a result, judo is practiced internationally and has a significant following worldwide. Judoka often travel to learn and compete with international friends and rivals! Why Judo? Judo provides a great form of activity for both children and adults of all abilities. Classes involve full body workouts and activities that develop both athletic and self-defence skills, while also building confidence, discipline, respect, and strong moral values. Kizuna Judo Club offers both recreational and competitive options, with defined skill pathways to lead your growth. Judo, while a contact sport, is also very safe for children and adults because of the emphasis it places on taking care of one's partners, safe technical execution, and breakfalls.

Sensei Ashley and Sensei Bruce (Delta) ran a Dojo Assistant and Dojo Instructor course this past weekend. It’s not the easiest weekend, with over 24 hours of instructional time over 3 days, but it’s always a blast and full of memories.

Very proud to say that in the past 6 months Kizuna has gained 4 new NCCP trained coaches!
