ASB Georgia, in cooperation with the Judo Federation, provides free self-defence classes for Georgian and Ukrainian women and children living in Georgia. In this article, we aim to explain the advantages of enrolling your child in martial arts, specifically Judo.
Here are five significant reasons for it:
1. Develops Essential Self-Defense
Some people think of judo only as an intensive sport. However, judo can be a great way for kids to develop self-defense skills. Judo emphasizes using your opponent's momentum and weight against them, rather than relying on brute force. Judo training equips children with vital self-defense skills, such as balance and coordination. These skills can help kids in real-life situations.
2. Teaches Discipline, Focus and De-escalation
If you’re looking for a way to help your kids learn discipline and focus, judo may be the perfect activity. As a Japanese martial art, judo places a strong emphasis on leveraging an opponent's momentum to one's advantage. This not only requires practitioners to be strategic in their movements but also demands constant awareness of their surroundings. Furthermore, judo extends its teachings beyond physical techniques. It equips children with invaluable skills to remain centered and focused in various situations, including verbal encounters. Through judo, children learn to redirect behaviors, defuse challenging situations, and acquire de-escalation skills. These skills contribute to their overall personal development and enhance their ability to handle conflicts peacefully.
3. Develops Physical Strength and Coordination
Judo is a fun and exciting way for kids to get active and stay in shape. Not only does it provide a great workout, but it also helps to develop coordination and physical strength.
4. Builds Self-Confidence
Most kids struggle with self-confidence at some point in their lives. Judo can help kids build self-confidence by teaching them to set goals and work hard to achieve them.
5. Emphasizes Individual Achievements
One of the things that makes judo so special is the emphasis on individual achievement. In judo, kids are constantly striving to improve their own techniques and progress to the next level.
