Judo is many things to different people.  It is a fun, sport, an art, a discipline, a recreational or social activity, a fitness program, a means of self-defence or combat, and a way of life. It is all of these and more.

Judo comes to us from the fighting system of feudal Japan. Founded in 1882 by Dr Jigoro Kano, Judo is a refinement of the ancient martial art of Jujutsu.  Dr. Kano, President of the University of Education, Tokyo, studied these ancient forms and integrated what he considered to be the best of their techniques into what is now the modern sport of Judo.

Join Kapiti Judo Club and participate in an Olympic Sport

Judo was introduced into the Olympic Games in 1964 and is practised by millions of people throughout the world today.   People practice Judo to excel in competition, to stay in shape, to develop self-confidence, and for many other reasons. But most of all, people do Judo for self-development, mentally and physically.
