New Starters
New Starter Information
Judo training sessions typically consist of a gymnastics, fall breaking and a games based warm-up, followed by technical instruction and skill drills to practice throwing and grappling techniques, then sparring and a cool down - The video at the bottom of this page should give you an idea of what to expect at your first judo lesson.
For junior new starters we run a introductory one-month trial. During this trial period we will loan your child a judo jacket and belt, all they need to wear is a t-shirt and tracksuit bottoms (no zips or poppers) or leggings (no shorts) - they will also need to bring clean flip-flops/slides and a full water bottle.
The first taster session is FREE - if your child enjoys this taster session and wants to complete the months trial, there is then just a one off £20 payment (payable on the second week).
If your child decides to continue with judo after the one-month trial period they will then be required to take out an annual British Judo membership, purchase a judogi and move over to one of the club's monthly club membership payment options (£30 a month for once a week training or just £40 a month for twice a week).
Our intakes for junior new starters restart every 2 months:
Adult Beginners Judo Courses are £50 for the first month (price includes a judogi), If you decide to continue with judo after the first month you will then be required to move over to one of the club's monthly membership payment options and take out a British Judo membership.
