This class covers the full curriculum of modern competitive judo and classical martial art judo.

There is no maximum age, but beginners over 70 are advised to consult their doctor before starting.

Curriculum

The curriculum for each age group is based on the grade syllabus of the Judo Federation of Australia.

In each case, additional material is presented to make sure that all members are given a rounded education in the full range of judo knowledge, techniques, strategies and training methodology.

Thus, all Kata are taught, including those of the Kodokan Women's division.   Various wrist projections and locks, leglocks, striking techniques and short staff exercises are also covered in the senior class.

Below are links to our curriculum notes for the Gokyu (5th class - yellow belt) grading in each of the standard Judo Federation of Australia age groups.
As you will see they cover a great range of information and act as memory joggers to reinforce class instruction.
Students are also provided with a list of recommended judo books.
