Our focus is primarily on the character building and self-defence aspects of Judo as originally created in 1882 by Professor Jigaro Kano, an educationalist and formidable Jujitsu expert whose vision was to develop individuals who would be respectful to others and contribute to society in a peaceful and positive way. Also like Prof, Kano Eurokwai does not subscribe to the crash, bang, wallop of sporting tournaments and as Sakujiro Yokoyama (one of Kano’s students) said if you practise Judo as a Sport you are making a big mistakeâ€. We are not a commercial organisation having to rely on numbers to survive. We are a community operated non-profit making club dedicated to ensuring our students receive the benefit of our expertise in the most economical way possible. Lessons are ‘pay as you go’, no direct debit advanced payments, no contracts.
