Judo

Judo SNAPSHOT

Judo is a dynamic Olympic combat sport built on the principles of balance, leverage, and timing. Founded in Japan in 1882, it centres on throwing, pinning, and submitting an opponent through precise technique rather than brute force — embodying its founding philosophy of "maximum efficiency, minimum effort." Judo has been an Olympic sport since 1964 and currently offers 15 medal events across individual and mixed team competitions, recognising athletes across seven weight categories for both men and women.

Our coaches don’t just drill techniques—they create real-time, immersive experiences that sharpen our instincts and elevate our game. Every session pushes me harder, and I’m fired up to get stronger, faster, and better every single day." SHAHIN DARJADA Judo Gold Medalist, Asian Junior Judo Championships, Jakarta (2025) Judo “Training under our coaches has truly elevated my judo game. Learning the Georgian style from Coach Lasha is both challenging and rewarding — his detailed, step-by-step approach pushes me to improve every day.
