Midway Judo club is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting traditional Kodokan Judo. The club is registered with USA Judo, the national governing body for Judo. Members of all ages and skill levels who are interested in learning Judo are welcome in the club. We have many families who work out together!
Some of our members are interested solely in learning Judo to improve their physical and mental fitness; others are interested in competition. Judo as a sport was founded by Professor Jigoro Kano in 1882. It is a sport that people of all ages may participate in. It is excellent aerobic and conditioning exercise for the body, and mental discipline for the mind.

I started at Midway Judo Club in January 2011 without any previous martial arts experience. Although the learning curve can be steep, Midway does a fantastic job of easing beginners into the sport. During the first couple of courses you become comfortable taking falls, and learning basic throws. The sensei's ensure that you're ready to mix in with the rest of the group before you begin sparring.
Judo is a tough sport, and the workouts at Midway are extremely demanding (even the warm-ups can be difficult for beginners). But, the entire club treats each other like family - they push each other,

I found Midway Judo Club a few months ago, when I decided to start regularly doing judo again after about a seven-year hiatus. Everyone's been very welcoming, and there was none of the posturing you sometimes encounter when joining a club as a black belt. It's a good community and I enjoy everyone's company just as much as I do practicing judo at the club.
It's a great club for both experienced players and newbies alike. The format of the lessons is fairly traditional, i.e., warm ups, uchi komi, nage komi, technique of the day, and randori. But there's a separate section for newbies to learn the
