JUDO is back

We are pleased to announce the Judo club at EMA is back after a temporary closure over the summer. The new class time is Saturdays 4–5pm and what's better still is that Mat 1 is available, so there's lots more room for randori practice.

If you haven't already booked a free taster class, now is your chance. Beginners are always made to feel welcome. Just call 01392 663000 or book on our website. See you on the mat!
