    Children develop greater self-confidence, as they realise that they can excel
    Judo/Jujitsu is a perfect choice for children.Though it is a martial art, Judo and Jujitsu emphasizes these two principles:Maximum efficiency with minimum effortMutual Welfare and benefit for all

Therefore, though the child learns techniques that can be utilised for self defence, the main focus is cooperation and reason, not fighting. Judo and Jujitsu teaches children to become comfortable in their growing bodies and to respect the places they live, work, and train. Judo and Jujitsu also benefits a student's flexibility, physical endurance, self-confidence, concentration, and discipline.

Judo is a "soft-form" martial art.
It was developed by Dr Jigaro Kano in 1882. Dr Kano wanted to develop a safer martial art that could be taught to school children, and used for athletic competition. He selected the safest Ju-Jitsu techniques, and modified them into the sport, which is known as Judo
