From the reviews
This judo club provides classes 7 days of the week and welcomes new and seasoned kids AND adults. Quite a rarity.
Super welcoming. Awesome authentic tatami mats. I contacted several Judo clubs as a newcomer of Hawaii, and were surprised most of them did not offer much for adults interested.
I brought my son here, and the experience was excellent. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming.
Your first judo class at Honolulu Judo Club
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.
