MINI JUDO CLASSES | 5 YEARS

MINI JUDO

Judo Games, Mini and Mini Judo classes run on a termly basis, three times a year starting in January, April and September. Classes are designed to follow the academic year and to complement school times.

Membership is £160 per term based on your child attending once a week to his/her chosen class.

In order to avoid disappointment we strongly advise that you book early in order to secure a place.
Bookings are made on a first come first serve basis and cannot be made without payment. Application forms must be completed and available from Budokwai reception or can be posted or emailed out on request.

Once payment has been made we are unfortunately unable to give refunds and classes cannot be carried over to the next term.

The younger children will be taught the essentials of Newaza (ground holds) & the art of Ukemi (break falling). The classes also include co-ordination skills with fun and games, and all done in a safe and effective environment.

The older children are then introduced to Tachiwaza (throwing moves) and also continue with the Newaza (ground holds), Ukemi (Break falling) and co-ordination skills with fun and games.

Each course runs on a termly basis, three times per year in spring, summer and autumn. 

See Up and Coming Events for the latest term and half term holiday dates.

Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays - 4.00-4.40pm,  4.40-5.15pm.
