We Train To Much!

Over the last couple of months we've added more training nights in a number of places so we thought we would save you the trouble of visiting our training page.

Our new session in Marlborough is now up and running and we would love to see new or existing members come along and join in.

As you can see we will be training every night shortly so please come along. You can find more details of the individual clubs, costs etc on the Training Page or you can contact us

We have a New senior session starting in Chippenham on a Thursday at Kings Lodge School. If you wish to add your name to the waiting list then please contact us to do so and we will confirm details of the session when it starts as soon as we have confirmation.

The Shodan Way

Shodan Judo adopts a modern approach to the ancient art of Judo that removes the harsh, strict discipline of traditional Judo Clubs yet still maintains and instills the necessity for respect, good behaviour and manners.

Shodan uses games and music to create an exciting and enthusiastic atmosphere that motivates students and creates a real enthusiasm for Judo. Our use of games teaches good basic Judo skills and attracts members as young as four years old.

Approach & Philosophy

Our experienced instructors have the tools and understanding of Judo and coaching to develop the knowledge and ability of members from a four year old novice, to those who train with elite Judo athletes.

Shodan Judo clubs are friendly and we always welcome new members of all ages and fitness levels including those with extensive or absolutely no previous experience of Judo or martial arts. Whether you wish to train for fitness, fun or competition - Train at Shodan Judo Clubs.

Benefits Of Judo

Judo is a global and Olympic sport. Benefits are an improved self-confidence, co-ordination, self-defence, respect for others and fitness.

Judo can also play a major part in combating the TV and Playstation culture and rising obesity, as a founding principle of Judo is exercise and physical development.

Quotes

"Shodan judo sessions go by so quickly because they are so much fun!"

Student Calne

"Nothing under the sun is greater than education. By educating one person and sending him into the society of his generation, we make a contribution extending a hundred generations to come"

Jigoro Kano
