The Northern Sydney Judo Club (NSJC) is an exciting Judo club located in St Ives, NSW, serving boys, girls, and adults in the northern Sydney area who would like to learn Judo in a safe and fun environment. Judo is recognised as a major worldwide sport with international competitions held around the world and is the only martial arts currently held in the Olympics. We are associated with International Judo Federation, Judo Australia, and the Kodokan Judo Institute.
Students learn Judo throws and mat work techniques through games, drills, randori (free practice) sessions, and competitions. Judo techniques are based on using efficient use of mind and body, to easily throw someone who may be bigger than you.
New students start with a white belt and learn the basics of Judo by first learning how to fall. Then learn more basic throws and hold downs to advance to the next colour belt. Students will learn about competition in the “friendly” club environment and then progress to competitions held at PCYCs and other nearby clubs. As students get better with their Judo techniques and gain confidence, they can move up to state and national competitions. While it will take hard work and dedication, we hope our students attain the Black Belt and represent Australia in international competitions and the Olympics.
NSJC practices Judo at the Barra Brui Scout Hall in St Ives, which is located across the street from St Ives High School off Hunter Ave and past the 2nd St Ives Scout Hall.
NSJC is looking to add an adults class (15 y.o. and above) and a no-impact/low-impact Judo based fitness class. If you are interested, please Email us for more information.
