“Although a small judo club, the dojo directed by Sensei Harvey and Mac teaches judo to its full potential with techniques that work in self defense and in competition. At first I didn't really like judo that much but after a couple months I felt like I belonged... And you should to because everybody is kind and will teach you at your own pace and speed. In the end, you will be the best judoka of you, all you need is passion and commitment. In conclusion, the Sacremento Judo Club is a great judo club that I recommend to all you judokas or people wanting to learn self defense.“
