SOUTH BAY JUDO - 2026

Judo is an Olympic sport practiced worldwide.  In judo, you practice a combination of throwing and grappling techniques with emphasis on movement, leverage, balance and skill.  Judo is an excellent physical workout that increases your stamina, strength, and endurance.  Great cardio workout for kids, youth and adults. Judo also promotes mental toughness, discipline, respect, helps to instill confidence, and teaches self-defense and self-control.  You can practice judo to cross train for balance, agility, speed, quickness and power.
