Judo

At Valor Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, we’re proud to introduce you to the world of Judo, a martial art with deep roots tracing back to Japan in 1882, crafted by Jigoro Kano. Judo isn’t just about physical prowess; it’s a discipline that emphasizes using an adversary’s momentum against them. This principle isn’t limited to physical confrontations but extends to navigating emotional and psychological challenges as well. With its global appeal, Judo has found enthusiasts in every corner, participating in clubs and tournaments, celebrating this art.

Many assume Judo is solely about taking an opponent down. However, it’s a comprehensive martial art encompassing a vast array of techniques for self-defense, competitive sport, and overall fitness. Its inclusivity is one of its strongest suits, welcoming individuals of all ages and sizes.

At Valor, our Judo classes are tailored to cater to everyone, from the curious beginner to the seasoned practitioner. We initiate newcomers with the art of safe falling, or Ukemi, progressing to foundational throws. As one advances, the curriculum delves deeper, unraveling the nuances of diverse throws and the art of seamlessly linking them. Join us, and immerse yourself in a martial art that’s as mentally enriching as it is physically empowering.
