Oyako offers children from the age of two an active judo learning experience. Working together with their parent our young Oyako students start with a bow to show respect and quickly move on to learning to fall safely, sing enthusiastically, speak Japanese and follow instructions like a real judo player. Through our engaging activities children develop not just coordination but confidence and, maybe best of all, new friends. There may be times when our little ones don’t participate perfectly but patience, understanding and our experienced support will help students to learn and grow.
