From the reviews
WOW! For Judo this is THE PLACE to go! They also have classes in Evanston. The coaches are all internationally ranked and two were olympians. The "warm up" is more intense then many work outs I've tried. The teaching is excellent and the class is diverse as heck, some as young as 13 others as old as me er . . .
My son has excelled drastically because of the training and skills he learned at Cohen Brothers Judo. Not only has he grown in the sport, but he has also grown as a person. I highly recommend Cohen Brothers Judo for anyone looking to excel in Judo or wrestling.
The best! very welcoming, and knowledgeable . The brothers have tons of experience and love to share their passion. Great place to start as an adult or child. Excellent training in judo and jiu jitsu.
Best judo club in the country, well respected coaches, very good with kids. They build champions and the kids love it.
Your first judo class at Cohen Brothers Judo Wrestling
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.
