I started judo a few months ago and I love it!!! Would absolutely recommended to anyone looking to learn or get better at judo!!!
I just got back into Judo (just finished week 2) and I am having a great time! Sensei Travis and the other Judokas are super patient with me. Honestly, Judo is for everyone. First class is free, so come as you are ☺️ You will be greeted with open arms.
Your first judo class at Bulldog Judo Academy (Gilbert)
Nervous about walking into a judo dojo for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good sensei expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, learning to fall safely (ukemi), then drilling a throw or two and some groundwork with a partner — not hard randori. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: athletic wear you can move in (or a judogi if you have one); you'll train barefoot on the mats. What to bring: water and a mouthguard if you have one — many dojos lend a loaner judogi for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own judogi. Live randori eases in gradually, once your fundamentals are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the sensei. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
