3 Types of Adult Classes
At Fighting Fitness Judo Woking, we are really proud of our adult judo section! We have beginners to black belts on the mat training, getting fit, learning new skills and having fun together… and it’s more than just judo. We offer regular social evening where we come together as a team!
We run 3 different types adult judo classes across the week which are suitable for all levels. Each class offers a slightly different focus but maintains the core values of this sport.
This class is a more traditional class in the sense we learn both standing and ground techniques at our Woking Dojo but is tailored for the level (technical and fitness) of the group. Similar to the children's classes you will work through a grading syllabus and work through your different coloured belts.
Mondays & Wednesdays*
7:30PM - 8:30PM
This class is a unique programme to Fighting Fitness Judo in Woking and not something you will find at another Judo club. Similar to our regular judo class, we practice standing and ground techniques but with a twist. People will wear shorts (or leggings), a T-shirt and a judo belt, the techniques and rules are adapted from our traditional judo rules to have a fun and challenging class.
Tuesdays
7:30PM - 8:30PM
Worried about being thrown? Our Thursday class could be the class for you!
The focus is on the ground element of judo learning how to move and defend yourself from the ground. This is not like a BJJ Class in Woking. By removing the throwing element of judo will enable you to build confidence in your ability, build strength and enjoy judo from the safety of the ground. It is also a great place to learn how to fall (without being thrown) and progress onto one of our other classes in your own time (if you wish).
Thursdays
7:30PM - 8:30PM

FINDING THE TIME AND ENERGY TO EXERCISE CAN BE DIFFICULT
Even when you do find time to hit the gym, regardless of having a schedule that’s full of work, family time, and other obligations, you might be bored by your same old workout. There’s nothing exciting about another go-round on the treadmill or elliptical – and you might need some encouragement to stick to a schedule and achieve your fitness goals.
Martial arts classes for adults focus on building core strength and cardiovascular fitness in a fun, social setting. Why not break out of your dull routine?
BETTER YOURSELF WITH EVERY CLASS!
Our Woking martial arts classes for adults can help you build core strength, increase your flexibility, learn how to defend yourself and the people you love, or lose weight. They’re also a great place to make new friends. Whatever your fitness goals are, you can achieve them in our classes.
LEARN HOW TO STAND UP FOR YOURSELF
Many people feel vulnerable and wish that they had a way to defend themselves if they end up in a dangerous situation.
Martial arts classes build strength, confidence, and agility while teaching basic but effective self-defence moves.
Studying martial arts can help you shake feelings of vulnerability and believe in your ability to ward off an attack.
FEEL GREAT ABOUT YOURSELF
It’s common for adults to struggle with self-esteem as they deal with competitive work environments and overloaded to-do lists.
Adults who study martial arts learn to search within themselves for their best qualities. They learn to self-motivate and not to worry what others think of them.
Martial arts instruction encourages students to feel good about themselves as they master new techniques.
CHALLENGING, CALORIE-BURNING WORKOUTS
One of the keys to losing weight is finding a workout that you genuinely like doing.
Martial arts workouts are fun and challenging. They burn calories while also building muscles and ramping up your metabolism.
Regular martial arts workouts can help you lose weight steadily, especially when combined with a healthy diet.
REGULAR EXERCISE HELPS ALLEVIATE ANXIETY
All people need an outlet for their worry and anxiety – and martial arts classes provide it.
In the absence of such an outlet, you might carry anxiety inside of you and inadvertently take it out on other people.
Martial arts classes burn calories, release tension and anxiety, and help keep you on an even keel mentally and emotionally.

FAQS
Are you looking for a new challenge? Did you try judo when you were a child? Want to learn some self-defence skills?
There are so many good reasons why people want to start judo (too many to mention), but there are also many reasons why people think judo is not for them- we've heard every excuse in the book:
No. We believe people of all ages can enjoy judo. Don't just take our word for it. Have you heard Becky's story? Starting judo at 50 years old and achieving her black belt by the age of 60, her story is truly inspiring.
Yes. Judo is a great workout- both physically and mentally! Classes are structured to allow people to develop at their own pace. Judo teaches you how to use all of your body, improving coordination, strength and fitness.
As well as getting the physical benefits of training a martial art, judo offers a unique mental workout, having to solve problems in real-time. It engages your mind in a way that you forget the stress of the day or other worries and are focused entirely on being 'in the moment'.
Our classes are based on developing new skills, techniques and physical attributes. All members are eased into randori (sparring) and the practice is taken at your own pace, with our main focus on ensuring everyone is able to get up for work in the morning or take the kids to school!
Judo is a great self-defence, but the focus is not fighting. Judo actually translates to the gentle way and it's based on teaching principles of movement, balance and body control. The idea is to be able to use your opponents' strength and energy against them.
