Information
At Shizentai Judo Club we have teamed up with the University of Hertfordshire to offer a class specifically designed to teach people how to fall in the safest way possible. This can reduce the severity of injuries sustained in a fall, as well as reducing the risk of falling by developing confidence and improving balance. Over ten weeks, we will build on basic principles, starting on the floor and gradually working up to a standing position. The course is specially tailored to cater for the over 60's, although it is open to everyone.
Next course
Our next course is scheduled for January 2025. Please click the sign up link or email info@shizentaijudo.co.uk to find out more / sign up.
