The Australian team in Astana is small but their delegation is working hard to build and aims to grow the team in the near future.

We’re heading to Evolution this Saturday!

Our friends at Evolution are hosting an awesome training event and we’re excited to get the whole Senshi Academy crew involved.
We’ll be cancelling our normal classes so everyone can head down to 41 Garden Drive, Tullamarine.

We want to see every single member out there sharing the mats with Team Evolution and all the other visitors in attendance.
It’s a great chance to train hard, pick up new skills, and make some new mates in our judo community.

Kids up to 13 years: 10:00 am
Teens and Adults 14+: 11:30 am

Let’s get behind it and make the most of a great day on the mats.

Get pumped, team!

Monday night we were treated to a masterclass from the genius Sandro Piccirillo.

Students and coaches alike were shown techniques and concepts that reflected an incredible depth of Judo knowledge.

Senshi Academy is sincerely grateful that Sandro was able to attend, share his expertise and exemplify what it means to be a gentleman, a class act and professor in the art.

We look forward to following your journey around the world and hopefully seeing you again soon, Sensei 🙇‍♂️

🚨 MELBOURNE — BIG NEWS FOR THE JUDO COMMUNITY 🚨

To keep the quality high, numbers are strictly capped — everyone in the room will get real value.

Time flies in the best way!

Not long ago they were the little whipper snappers running around the mat, full of energy and learning the basics.
Now they’re the ones leading the way, refereeing and helping run our competitions.

We’re incredibly proud of these members who grew up in our club and choose to give back—supporting the next generation on their own journey in Judo.
