Oh man! If I only knew that you could train for a day there being a complete beginner I would have done it. 😢 I only took a couple of judo classes but I know my falls since I hold a black belt in aikido. Next time I’m in Japan I will do it for sure
I don’t know where you’re at in LA but there are a couple good dojos. You can check out Sawtelle (west LA), Tenri (east LA), Norwalk (south east LA), Valley Judo Institute (SFV). There is also San Fernando Valley Judo, Gokor’s and a couple Armenian gyms in Glendale. I haven’t been to any gyms in Orange County. Also a lot of bjj gyms around and some allow standup during rolls which is good to supplement mat time. But I recommend progressing in judo a little further before going to a bjj gym for extra rounds, it’s a different culture and most people respect judo players but some don’t and may try to go in hot 😂.
@ I rarely train Judo anymore because of my schedule but still regularly train BJJ. Valley Judo Institute is my dojo, but I’m living a good distance away from there right now. It’s a welcoming place especially if you have history with Gardena Dojo. I can train BJJ mornings before work and it works out well. I’ve been doing Judo since 2008, and started BJJ in 2022. Also you don’t have to wait to train BJJ at all, it’s not a requirement to learn judo first. Depending on your schedule it may be better to go to bjj, there are far more options for training schedules and a lot of judo players cross train. Most BJJ gyms train 5-6 days a week while the average judo gym is 2-4 times a week. Good luck, maybe I run into you on the mats one day.
As a judoka, I want to visit Koroma some day too, the art I love so much
Respect for putting yourself out there🙌
Thank you! Maybe next, Thai Boxing in Thailand! 😅
I think i trained with you when i visited Gardena judo. If you're close by come train with us at Hollywood judo!
