My 5 year old started Judo here around 6 months ago and it has been a really great experience for her. She’s doing exercises and rolls that she refused to do in gymnastics and has more confidence with everything. The other kids are upbeat and kind. It can be a pretty intense workout but she loves it.
I have been training here for a year together with my children. We have one of us in each level of classes (4-8 year old group, 8-12 and adult class). We all love training here and look forward to class. It has been great for me as well as for my kids. Sensei is tough and caring at the same time, which helps my kids learn but also know that he cares about them and wants them to grow. This has been great for them physically as well as mentally. I highly recommend for adults and children of all ages. We are proud to be part of the Samurai Judo family!
