Judo at Blackhorse Judo Club
The sport of Judo was introduced in Japan over 100 years ago by Jigaro Kano, the founder of Judo. At Blackhorse Judo Club we believe that the traditions, history and ideals established by Kano are as important today as they were when Judo was first conceived.

Apart from the obvious fitness benefits that can be obtained from practising judo, you can also improve other individual skill, for example self-confidence, mental maturity and strength, discipline, dedication and a sense of community.

You will never know if you like judo until you try it out - all the instructors at Blackhorse Judo Club will be only too delighted to talk to you about all that we offer - so do come and take a look.
