  I've been at Judo Factory for a few months now, and my initial nervousness faded quickly. Coach Adam and the students are incredibly friendly, creating a welcoming environment. Despite having no martial art background, I felt like part of a respectful and supportive family from the start. If you want to learn to “smesh” then this is the place to be! My judo has drastically improved and I’m a lot more confident outside of the Dojo as a person.

  One year later I wanted to add few words to my previous post. It is amazing to see how much my son has developed his skills e.g. coordination, learning, sportsmanship. He is now 5yo and it is visible how his confidence grew significantly, he's been very participative and willing to learn in each class. He recently graduated and could not be happier; not to mention the day he fell from his scooter and instinctively roll over with a break fall. No injures despite the fast speed he was going. Being able to apply his judo skills in other areas of his life in such young age is impressive. I highly recommend Judo Factory. Thanks Coaches Adam and Akraman (and team). Here's my post from Jul-22: "After the trial class my 4yo son was eager to come back. He’s been attending for a couple of weeks now and having lots of fun. Coach Adam can really entertain the young kids with fun games and judo drills. They learn judo while playing."
