Judo Martial arts school

02 June 2020

With the recent easing of Covid-19 related restrictions in the state of Western Australia, we are actively planning to resume our Judo program as soon as possible.

We are currently working closely together with Judo Western Australia and the Fremantle PCYC to restart our classes in a responsible manner.

We will inform our current members as soon as possible and as always welcome new members to register for a Free Trial class as soon as we are in a position to do do so.

We’re currently targeting to resume (some) classes as early as June 10th, 2020.

We're working on it....

About us

Judo Ryu WA was founded in early 2004 to provide Judo training to children aged 5.5 and over from the Fremantle PCYC in Hilton. Classes were initially only for children, but this was soon followed by additional classes catering for all age groups, and all levels.

Our club is a continuation of our coach Robert’s training and coaching effort in The Netherlands for many years under the umbrella of Judo Promotion Twente, a near 1,000 member, multi-location, yet regional club delivering grass-roots as well as high-performance Judo classes.

Judo Ryu WA is a proud member of Judo Western Australia and thereby affiliated with Judo Australia, the Australian Olympic body.

Continued training at Judo Ryu WA requires you to be a member of Judo Western Australia. Join here!

Check our current training location and times for more information and be sure to register for a FREE trial class.

Training

We teach Judo in an active, fun and safe manner. Judokas (players) are taught a variety of techniques, while at the same time learning to respect and ‘care’ for each other. This is based on our principle that ‘Judo is Duo’, meaning that it takes two to practise Judo. In other words, you should look after each other, as you can not play Judo on your own.

Doing Judo without a partner is like doing a clap with one hand…

meet our coaches

Our coaches bring you a wealth of Judo knowledge gained over decades of dedicated Judo practise around the world.

Head coach Robert trained and coached in The Netherlands before establishing our current club Judo Ryu WA here in Australia back in 2004. Robert is an International Referee with the International Judo Federation (IJF) and an IJF certified Judo Instructor currently working at Murdoch University as a Lecturer/Tutor in the Murdoch Business School.

Coaches Patrick and Owen have represented WA and Australia at numerous national and inter-national championships, all the way up to the Cadet & Junior World Championships.

Patrick is currently studying Sports Science while focusing on and training for the 2022 Commonwealth Games.

Owen is dedicated to obtaining his Personal Training certificates which will no doubt benefit him in his personal training efforts and aspirations to compete at the next Olympics.

And Coach Michael no longer looks THAT young….
