Did you know that judo was the first martial arts to use coloured belts to denote a student’s rank? This practice was later adopted by other Japanese styles and is now a common feature of many martial arts systems.

Judo is an unarmed combat sport where the objective is to cleanly throw, to pin, or to master the opponent by applying pressure to arm joints or to the neck to cause the opponent to yield.

The judoka (students of judo) wears a judogi which is loose jacket and trousers.

Are you ready to test your combat skills?
