Winchester Judo and Martial Arts Club

We are lucky enough to have one of the few permanent dojos with dedicated facilities. Brand new mats provide a safe, clean environment to train in. The area is large enough to enable a normal sized class to practice with enough room to enable safe throws to be performed. A permanent area of mats ensures that there is a safe area to train in, without having to put mats down before each session. The 2nd part of the dojo consists of seats that enable the class to be comfortably observed without disruption. This is very useful for parents who might wish to watch their child training or potential beginners to view a typical class.
