Benefits of judo
Judo is about much more than learning throws and holds. Through regular training, you develop strength, fitness, movement and technical ability while learning how to adapt, solve problems and perform under pressure. The more you train, the more you begin to understand your own judo and how to apply it effectively.
Build strength, endurance, mobility and coordination through practical training.
Develop effective self-defence, judo techniques through structured coaching and regular practice.
Judo develops whole-body strength, balance, timing and control.
Learn to deal with physical and mental challenges and become more comfortable under pressure.
For those who want to compete, we provide opportunities to test your judo at club, regional and national level.
Train with people of different ages and abilities and become part of a judo family where people support each other.
More than A Sport
Judo gives you a chance to keep learning, challenge yourself and see what you are capable of. Every session brings something different, whether that’s learning a new technique, working through a tough round or helping someone else improve.
You don’t have to be fit, experienced or competitive to start. Some members train for fitness, some want to compete and others simply enjoy the challenge and the people they train with. There is room for all of them on the mat.
Our expert coaching team
Led by Head Coach Luke Brown (5th Dan, former Great Britain international and UKCC Level 4 qualified), our coaching team brings extensive competitive and coaching experience to every session. Luke was awarded the Postgraduate Diploma Prize in Advanced Sports Coaching, alongside regional coaching awards, and continues to develop his own coaching alongside the club.
Our approach is centred on helping each judoka develop their own game. Members arrive with different levels of experience and different goals, from learning the fundamentals and improving fitness to developing competition judo. We adapt our coaching to the individual, providing clear technical guidance, useful feedback and the right level of challenge to help each person progress.

Agnieszka Conradie2020-02-12My son & I, we train at the Judo Club for 1 year now. Friendly & safe environment. Luke is a knowledgeable & an outstanding coach. My son is learning respect & discipline, while he is having a lot of fun at the same time. The perseverance, love & joy of learning is reflected in the children taking part in training. All judo team (Luke, Tom, Vicki & Rob) are professional coaches & they have a great ability to bring out the best in children of all levels & abilities. They interact well with children of all ages. I appreciated the focus on skill, but even more so on character - kindness & sportsmanship. Every training is a very positive experience for me & my son. I would encourage anyone, regardless of age or physical ability to give it a try, & I can think of no better group of people to pursue this Judo Club in Lowton. Thank you Aga & Brad.
Paul Jervis2019-08-30My daughter has been here nearly 5 years now and still absolutely loves it. She has made life-long friends and it has also made made her quietly confident, given her manners and respect. Luke takes no messing around be it from the kids or the adults and as such you can see the kids develop into young adults with great values. This is not only a judo club. It is an extended family where everybody knows everybody and welcomes new people with open arms There is also activities outside of judo for the kids and adults. Camping. Cinema bowling trampolining and lots more. come along. You won't be disappointed.
