Borderland Judo Club

Borderland Judo Club The Borderland Judo Club Judo is a popular martial arts style and Olympic sport with a rich, though relatively recent history.

Breaking the term judo down, ju means “gentle” and do “means the way or path.” Thus, judo translates to "the gentle way." A judoka is someone who practices judo. Beyond being a popular martial art, judo is also a combat sport.

A great alternative for those that love judo but don't like the fighting part is doing katas. Competition is available at every level. Competitors are evaluated on their precision and form. https://www.facebook.com/watch?v=1958216372197253

This chart was put together using information from the Judo Canada National KYU Grading Syllabus as we figured we needed something a bit simpler and easier for the parents to follow. It is to be used as a guide for the minimum age at which our young judokas become eligible for possible grading at each belt level, Exemptions can be made and fast tracking is available to those that meet the fast tracking criteria as outlined in the National KYU Grading Syllabus, but judokas must be a minimum of 12 years old to be eligible. There are several factors involved besides just age and time when it comes to advancing a belt level. Attitude, effort, success at tournaments, knowledge of terminology and being able to demonstrate the appropriate techniques are also involved when it comes to advancing in rank. Note that the birth years listed pertain to the 2026 2027 judo season.

Help! I'm trying to put together the history of the Borderland (Fort Frances) Judo Club. Over the years since its inception in 1964/65 there has to have been a thousand or so people that have been members of our club. If any of you have pictures from your time at the club and/or can share what years you attended, who your sensei was and where the classes were held it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

To try and save time tonight and to avoid confusion, if you've registered with Judo Ontario just show us a copy of your Judo Ontario card on messenger, or even just a copy of the receipt if you can't access the card. Thanks.

Everyone planning on going on the mats must bring proof of registering with Judo Ontario with them their first night out. A screenshot or a printout will work. Judo Ontario is in the middle of installing a new program called Dokume and they've only got it partly implemented so I can't access our club information to see who has registered. You also need to make sure to set up a Dokume account to tie into your Judo Ontario account. [https://judocanada.dokume.app/ #/login](https://judocanada.dokume.app/...) See less
