Balance. Technique. Control.
Judo is more than a martial art, t’s a mindset. At its core, Judo teaches you to use your opponent’s force to your advantage. If pushed, you pull. If pulled, you push. It’s not about overpowering - it’s about outsmarting, using balance, leverage, and timing to gain control. These principles don’t just apply on the mat but they shape how you move through life.
At Chung’s, Judo empowers students of all ages and sizes. You’ll learn that true technique beats strength, which becomes a lesson that builds both confidence and humility. Whether you're standing or on the ground, you'll be equipped to defend yourself effectively and with control.
Master ground defense and positional control
Learn joint locks and chokes safely and responsibly (age-appropriate)
Build real self-defense skills in a positive, respectful environment
Mastering techniques like chokes and joint locks represents a key stage of growth, confidence, and the importance of precision over power.
Judo is a style where size does not mean instant victory, as true technique overcomes all.
Develop confidence on the ground by learning how to stay in control, gain dominant positions, and protect yourself effectively. As your skills progress and you're ready, you'll be introduced to advanced techniques like joint locks and chokes and always taught with safety, control, and respect in mind.
One of the first—and most important—skills you’ll learn is how to fall safely. Because let’s face it: everyone falls. Judo teaches you how to fall and get back up—both physically and mentally.
You’ll train hard, challenge yourself, and grow in every class. And while you’re building strength and skill, you’ll also be building friendships that last a lifetime.
