Another good night on the mat 🥋

With the juniors, we focused on the setup and technical details of O Uchi Gari, building balance, timing and control through the throw.

The seniors worked on drop throws, focusing on improving shoulder connection, commitment and drive into the technique. Some really good effort and sharp judo on show 👏

See everyone back on Thursday before our half-term break 💪

It’s good to be back on the mat after 1/2 term.

With the juniors, we started working on OUchi Gari as well as some hip throws building speed.

With the seniors we’ve been working on lots of throwing with a focus on transition into arm locks.

Well done to Mya earning the trophy this week with some excellent throws in Randori.

A good first week back on the mat 🥋

With the juniors, we focused on chest control and keeping strong contact with the mat, helping build balance, awareness, and control. There was great effort across the group, with plenty of focus and positive attitudes on show.

⭐ Well done to Tate, who earned Judoka of the Week for excellent listening, focus, and effort throughout the session. Keep it up 👏

🥋 Sisters on the Tatami! 💙

A huge well done to Mya and Claudia who both stepped up to compete recently!

For 5-year-old Claudia, it was her first ever competition—and she showed incredible bravery, focus and spirit (and loved every minute). Big sister Mya led by example, supporting her all the way and showing what true leadership and encouragement look like.

At Leigh Judo Club, we believe in more than just medals. It’s about confidence, courage, and growing together—on and off the mat.

These sisters are a brilliant example of the values we stand for. 🥋💫
