Why choose Judo for your children?
Judo can be an excellent activity for children of all ages. It encourages physical activity, builds character, and can teach children important life lessons. Judo is a highly effective martial art that develops self-defence skills from both the standing and ground positions.
Did you know….
It uses nearly every muscle in the human body and can help children develop strength and coordination that directly transfer to other sports practised later in life.
Judo helps with Listening. Dealing with winning and losing. Waiting their turn. Judo is not an individualized sport, kids learn how to play and train with others.
It can help them learn how to control their emotions better and increase social skills. Judo also teaches children discipline and respect.
What is the age range for children to start learning judo?
Most experts believe that the best age for children to start learning Judo is between four and eight years old. Children under eight years old aren’t allowed to compete in Judo. However, it’s worth noting that everyone develops differently, so there might be a few exceptions. If you’re considering enrolling your child in Judo, you can take them for a “trial run” at an age-appropriate class at Woopi Warriors Judo club to see if they’re ready for it.
4 to 6 year olds
These classes are aimed at improving motor skills with the use of judo gymnastics. Learning breakfalls with soft crash pads and developing an understanding of being competitive by learning ground fighting.

What People Say
My grandson loves going to Woopi Warriors each week. Cliff has exceptional people skills and relates well to each age group giving his time freely to ensure each child understands instruction, discipline and most of all has a great time learning judo. The Easter Camp was also a huge hit. Could not recommend more highly.
