A normal class will have 15-30 people attending training, with at least two experienced black belt coaches on the mat providing instruction.
New club members are always welcome no matter whether you are a beginner; a seasoned competitor; or just visiting Cape Town.
Our experienced coaching team provide the full range of training, from beginner level through to competition class for our club members who compete on a national level. At our Groote Schuur dojo we have a dedicated space with the best possible facilities which include two full size judo olympic mats, numerous crash mats, and a sprung floor.
A 90 minute judo training session normally consists of a thorough warm-up, technique instruction to refine and learn new techniques, and finally randori (sparring). We focus both on standing and groundwork techniques.
