Nakano Judo Academy

Nakano Judo Academy The Nakano Judo Academy was established with the goal of bringing up world class Judo players in America. Regular Classes and Private are offered.

The primary challenge in combat sport competition is to be able to recognize when to initiate a particular technique and then be able to execute very complex movements in only a matter of seconds. For the Judo student the acquisition of new techniques is a slow and deliberate effort requiring great attention to detail. Once the student has acquired a mental understanding of a technique they then d

rill to program the movements into muscle memory. The existing literature and general knowledge does a good job of describing standard judo techniques. However students who rely completely on such resources in absence of corrective feedback from a competent instructor are at a great disadvantage. In the worst case the student learns a technique incorrectly and then has difficulty training out of these “bad habits” when they discover what they are doing is not effective. Throughout the entire lifespan of a Judo student it is critically important to receive direct and pointed feedback from experienced instructors. For the elite Judo student that wants to compete against international competition this is a requirement. Community Judo clubs offer excellent environments for practicing and learning new techniques. However, due to the size of the classes and the availability of instructors these clubs may not always adequately respond to the unique needs of individual athletes. At the elite level most athletes receive one-on-one instruction to tailor technique and strategies to the evolving competition. Frankly, at any level the committed Judo student can benefit from one-on-one instruction to either catch up to their peers during their formative years or to get an edge on the competition for more experienced athletes. The Nakano Judo Academy staff offers years of elite level competition experience. As a one-on-one program the specific needs of individual athletes can be assessed and an optimized training program can be designed based on those needs.

We had a special guest in our judo zoom session tonight. He said that not everyone can achieve their dreams, but in the process of what you are doing your best makes you become better for your next stage of your life. Don't give up your judo, and stay positive whatever happens.

I really appreciate his time.
