New to judo?
Regardless of your age if you're starting out at judo we won't make you wait for a beginners course, just come along to the appropriate class and follow these simple rules
Your first judo lesson is free, after that it is just £5 per session and once you're happy you want to stay we can look judo kits, licences and loyalty card. There's no rush!
What to expect?
The origins of judo base it’s philosophy on mutual respect, discipline, confidence, integrity and fair play. Comberton judo club is a safe practice environment that is part of the national judo structure and works closely with local schools and universities.
Judo is a bit of a “rough and tumble” sport but it is fun and very diverse. Anybody, regardless of body shape, gender, age and physical ability can do judo. Judo is about being able to beat your opponent and everyone is good at something, you just have to find out what you’re good at and impose that upon your opponent.
In the children's class the focus is on fun and physical literacy- agility, balance, co-ordination and speed. So although the class is for 6-9 year olds there maybe older children who would benefit from more physical literacy than judo training. All of this is learnt through judo skill and games as well as some basic gymnastics.
The older children's class is for children aged 10-15 years old although there maybe some younger or older children in this group. This group focuses more on “judo for judos’ sake” classes focus upon judo as a competitive sport (although not all players in this group compete) and on judo skills, tactics and fitness.
You can do a little or as much as you wish. For more information on judo world wide and it’s origins click here.
- Wear something lose that you don't mind being pulled around a bit
- We'll lend you a jacket so don't go rushing out to buy a kit before you start
- Bring a waterbottle
- Remember if we're doing something you're not sure about, or don't want to do, that's fine, just tell the coach

Age is not the only deciding factor on which class suits children the best, ability, size, motivation, developmental age are all considered so please be aware we may wish to move children. If you think your child should be in a different class just speak to the coaches, you know them better than us.
