Judo Westchester                                        Judo Westchester: White Plains, New Rochelle, Yonkers

Judo was one modernization of Jujitsu by Kano Sensei early in the 20th century. A typical class may include warm ups followed by practicing a few
specific applications against certain standard grabs used in competition.  Competitive practice often follows where one wins either by throwing
someone forcefully to the ground or going down to the ground with them and causing them to submit by choking or locking an arm.  While katas do
exist in Judo, the practice is not as extensive, and weapons forms are not involved.  Actual self defense techniques are only applied against grappling
attacks, but transitioning Judo techniques to be effective against strikes is straight forward.  Judo emphasizes the use of destructive technique first
followed by learning to control an attacker.  Exercise is aerobic.

In Westchester County, Judo is available Scarsdale & New Rochelle, but perhaps less so in White Plains & Yonkers
