From the reviews
School of mindful teaching. One of the few authentic dojos operating . Clear lineage to founders of Judo and Aikido. Great for children and adults. Place to learn meditation, self defense, self confidence and bring out the best version of yourself.
I have been coming to this dojo since 2005 twice every year. I live in Québec, Canada. This dojo is the closest thing to Japan Uchi Deshi experience with a real life Shihan. This is the real deal! Thank you Augé Sensei for offering us a place to call Hombu!
This school is great for kids and adults, the trainning is focused on practical defensive techniques and ethical life style. I strongly recommend this place!
Your first judo class at Yoseikan Aikido & Judo
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.
