Judo
(Gentle Way)

See our new web site.

Learn JUDO "The Gentle Way" in a continuous year round program. Join any time. Easy and fun! A healthy family activity.

Judo is an Olympic sport which is the 2nd most popular sport in the world after Soccer.

There is NO Kicking or Hitting. Judo emphasizes care and respect for your opponent. In fact the two fundamental principles of judo are:

 "Maximum Efficiency, Minimum Effort" and "Mutual Welfare and Benefit"

Techniques of KODOKAN JUDO are taught in a safe and fun way with special attention for beginners. Learning is stressed rather than winning or losing.  For boys and girls 5 through 18 years old. Visually or hearing impaired are encouraged to join. Visitors are welcome at each class.

Children (5 through 18 yrs.) are encouraged to participate in our tri-monthly invitational tournaments for fun and to show parents what they have learned. Adults may help at tournaments with timing and scorekeeping.

On February 6, 2010, 108 judoka from several local judo clubs participated in our tri-monthly invitational tournament. The next tournament is scheduled for May 15 (followed by  September 11 and November 6.) Registration is 9:00 am to 9:45 am. Please mark your calendar - come and watch FREE. Special thanks to the family volunteers for making these tournaments possible.

A very special thanks to all the clubs who regularly participate:

Cahill Judo Academy;  The French School, SF;  Hapkido Institute;  Pacifica Judo Club; San Francisco Judo Institute;  Santa Clara PAL;  South San Francisco Boys & Girls Club Judo;   Stanford Junior Judo
