Our training is structured for all abilities in both Competitive and Traditional Judo in the Kodokan style. All are welcome: Seniors, Juniors, Male, Female, Beginners and Experienced alike. Judo is an ideal sport and martial art for all ages. It provides an ideal form of physical exercise, improving stamina, strength and overall fitness. In addition Judo teaches etiquette, respect, self-discipline and improves confidence. However, it is fair to say that that in 2006 Seishin won over 55 medals. Quite an achievement for a club that does not put competition as its top priority!!

Everyone is treated fairly and equally regardless of race, gender, background or ability. Seishins Child Protection Policy and Equity Policy are available to all members.
