🔥 New Friday Class Format at Nakano Judo Academy!

We’re excited to introduce a new Friday training format led by our assistant coach Jason.

Two focused one-hour classes every Friday:

🥋 7:00–8:00 PM — Top Takedowns for Judo & Jiu-Jitsu
Train the high-percentage throws responsible for most wins. Over a 6-month rotation, we break down mechanics, timing, counters, and live situational rounds. Every class includes the ground transition so your throw finishes with control.

🤝 8:00–9:00 PM — Championship Gripping
Master the grip fight that decides who throws and who gets thrown. Learn foundations, 50/50 scenarios, offensive control, defensive neutralizing, grip-integrated throwing, and live positional sparring.

✅ Ages 13+
✅ All levels welcome
✅ Take one class or both

Perfect for judoka, jiu-jitsu practitioners, and anyone looking to strengthen their standing game.

Congratulations to Vincent on receiving his first-dan black belt!

From white belt to black belt, every throw, every fall, every lesson has led to this moment. But in Judo, the black belt is not the end. It’s the beginning of a true judo journey.

We're all proud of you, Vincent, and keep learning and challenging yourself. Keep giving your best!
