University of Bath Student's club - This is a closed club for uni students only. It has had unprecedented success over the last couple of years! For example, students starting judo in October have taken medals at competitions 5 weeks later in November! This has continued throughout the year into BUCS in which Bath is fast becoming the dominate university! Bath Uni students, please come along and join this amazing club!! Its friendly, welcoming, and great fun - due to your success! Contact me or your committee for details -
Adult/Open Sessions - Tuesdays, 7 - 9 pm, at the University of Bath's dojo, all welcome above 14 years is the only restriction. We now have a wide range of players, both in ability and age. Don't be shy, as with the above, its always friendly, fun, informative - this should equal success and improvement! As this is still in our promotional period, no fee will be charged until further notice. Please contact me with any questions. Love to see you there.
Special training - a development idea I got from my father. Back when he was in the Kodokan in the 50s, the kids used to have 'lessons' and then have to run through the adults who were training to get to the changing rooms. The adults never let them by without playing with the kids. This was seen by my old man as a great teaching opportunity as all the adults were national champions 4th 5th & 6th dans with years of experience and great skills. I have tried to reproduce this opportunity in the Special training events held on Sunday mornings at the STV dojo (see above). See below for when the next one is coming up - they are invitation only events, not open to anyone!! Usually members of school clubs. Get in touch with any questions.
School Handbooks, are now in their third edition. I have altered the layout, in order to facilitate a very flexible progression into judo. Skills can be taken from any point in the learning/development course and used to attain grades. I'd like to think how I teach judo exemplifies this approach. Please purchase them from me at the school session, price £5.
Thank you for your continued support and interest! FG. 1.7.24.
