Adaptive class
Seated and standing practice, one step at a time, for students who move in different ways. Tell us what helps when you book and we plan the class with you.

The mat
One big mat, in one room
A floor of thick tatami-style mats, with a bench for parents by the window.
Judo and jiu-jitsu share the same room, the same bow and the same warm-up. Seated drills come first for anyone who wants them. Shoes stay at the door, and parents wait on the bench by the window.
