No, we group children by age and ability to ensure safe and appropriate training. Your child will practice with peers of similar size and experience for a positive and supportive environment.
At this age, judo builds confidence, resilience, and independence. It also teaches respect, teamwork, and discipline, while improving strength and coordination.
We recommend attending 2 classes per week for steady progress. Consistency helps your child build discipline, skills, stay engaged, and gain the full benefits of training.
Your child will need a judo gi (uniform) and a water bottle. If they’re trying judo for the first time, we’ll provide a trial gi for them to use.
