We're exploring bringing our Kids Judo program back to Shuhari Judo! Before adding classes to our schedule, we'd like to gauge community interest. If you'd like your child to participate, join our no-obligation interest list. If enough families are interested, we'll launch a pilot program.

We welcome students starting in their 40s and 50s. Our rigid early prioritization of safe landing mechanics protects your joints and longevity.
