Our training is led by multiple black belt instructors with more than 40 years of Judo experience. This background includes state, national, and international-level competition, as well as prior training at the Kodokan Judo Institute in Japan. Beyond Judo, our instructors and many of our senior members have formal ranking and extensive backgrounds in Brazilian jiu-jitsu and other martial arts or combative sports.
As a member club in the US Judo Federation with active youth programs, our senior instructors are required to: 1) Pass routine criminal background checks, 2) To maintain training and certification from the Centers for Disease Control on head injury prevention and response, 3) To be trained and certified by the US Olympic Committee on maintaining safe/respectful sporting environments and mandatory reporting of abuse or misconduct among or directed at young athletes.
