Judo comes from Japan and means “the gentle way” and is both a martial art and an Olympic sport. It’s a comprehensive physical education, enhancing, through knowledge of the sport, all psychomotor possibilities (spatial location, perspective, ambidexterity, laterality, throwing, pushing, crawling, jumping, rolling, falling, independent joint coordination of both hands and feet, etc.) and relationship with others, using play and fight and introducing technical and tactical sport concepts; in addition to seeking a general, ideal fitness.

The classes will focus on the personal growth of the participants and will be adjusted to their needs, whether they come just for fun or to compete at the highest levels. The classes will be run in both French and English and will be run by black belts that are nationally qualified.
