JUDO:

MORE THAN JUST A SPORT!

 

Judo is an international sport that originated in Japan and is an official Olympic event. It is unique among martial arts in that it focuses on throwing techniques from a standing position and submission techniques from the ground. At the Nakano Judo Academy, we offer programs for individuals who want to get in shape, become mentally strong, and live a stress-free life through martial arts training. Immerse yourself in martial arts at the Nakano Judo Academy.

 

Our academy offers a reputable staff with years of experience in elite-level competition and coaching in Judo. We have classes for kids, juniors, and adults available five days a week, as well as special programs for beginners who are new to Judo, so beginners are more than encouraged and welcome! Our programs include daily classes, summer camp, clinics throughout the year, and our annual Japan Judo Tour Camp.​

 

Additionally, we offer no-gi lessons once a month so that students can learn Judo mechanics and self-defense techniques without a traditional Judo uniform. 

Judo is an education for life, and we believe that it can help children become the best version of themselves. Our educational and fun training programs at Nakano Judo Academy provide a journey of a lifetime. Let us guide you and your children on this journey, and we're confident that you'll love Judo!

Shintaro Nakano brings to SJSU Judo the Japanese version of Judo, which is a little bit different in that they do a lot of execution on a move with speed. He moves fast and he throws all our big guys, so of course they are just amazed that he could do this. But he is showing us what true judo looks like.”
