Experience
Traditional Kodokan-style judo in a community-club setting. Kids learn ukemi (falling) first, then standing throws (ippon seoi nage, osoto gari, uchi mata) and ground transitions, with optional shiai (competition) participation as they earn higher belts. Colorado Judo League circuit access gives kids who want to compete a clear path with regular events.
