FUN JUDO and KIDS JUDO (7-9 years old)

Contents:

Lots of fall techniques, gymnastics and lots of games

Ne-waza techniques (techniques on the knees)

Easier throwing techniques in order to give the kids the possibility of grading to higher belts.

Judo and several games interact in order to keep the kids interested.

Our goals:

To teach our kids to listen, look and do as the teachers tell them.

To teach the kids the importance of “fair play” according to the club’s moral and ethics.

To teach the kids how their body’s function

To teach the kids fall techniques, osaekomi, and throwing techniques, both with fun and games, and competition techniques, in order to be able to grade to higher belts.

To make kids interested in the values of sport, friendship and respect.

These are not that important:

Automatic learning

It’s not important how “well” or how “fast” the kids learn the techniques.

We do not contemplate strength and condition training as important at these ages, non the less, we make the kids “try” harder exercise

No tactical “kumi-kata” nor many “randori”, though sometimes they are able to use their techniques on the teachers.

Competitions:

Those kids which have the interest of competing, are allowed to do so in smaller arrangements in our club or in the vicinity of our club
