Here at the Nest we would like to welcome Shinmura Judo as the newest part of the Nest family.

Judo was founded in 1882 by D. Jigoro Kano and means the ” gentle way”. It teaches people of all ages the importance of flexibility when applying technique. When performing a throw or other skill, emphasis is placed on flexibility  and efficiently using your leverage and balance for every moment.

To be successful in judo, it’s much more important to learn technique, timing, and skill, instead of simply using brute strength to win.

The benefits of Judo:

• Building physical fitness
• In children – improves focus, develops positive attitudes about sports in general, increases self-esteem, self-discipline, self-respect and courtesy towards others.
• Emotional Health
• Limiting Aggression – teaches you to respect those around you, pay attention to detail, and learn how to present yourself.
• Concentration
