Another new class on the schedule! This one is no gi judo for kids, every Wednesday 5-6 pm. We’ve had no gi judo on the schedule for adults for several years now, and it’s a very popular class. After many requests from both kids and parents, we will add kids no gi judo starting in October.
No gi judo is exactly what it sounds like – judo without a jacket. We will incorporate wrestling and Brazilian jiujitsu as well in this class, and learn techniques that are no longer allowed in mainstream sport judo such as double leg takedowns (morote gari in Japanese), fireman’s carry (kata guruma), the front headlock, and more.
Kids No Gi will be taught by Sensei Jonah Ewell, third degree black belt and 2021 USA Judo National Champion in the M3 age category at -100kg. Sensei Jonah has a purple belt in Brazilian jiujitsu.
This class will take place Wednesdays 5-6 pm and is open to anyone in our Youth program. Click here to view our full schedule.
