Based in the culturally rich city of Kanazawa, this journey invites participants to discover the spirit, values, and everyday presence of judo in a local Japanese setting—far from the formal halls of Tokyo.
While many associate judo with the Kodokan in Tokyo, we offer an alternative perspective:
judo as it lives in the daily lives of communities, taught in small dojos, nurtured by families, and grounded in mutual respect.
Through this, participants connect not only with the techniques of judo, but also with the heart of Japanese culture itself.

I’m a judo coach based in Japan, currently working with Kubota Judo Club and Hokuriku University. I’ve also coached in Croatia with both the national team and a local club.
I studied sports science at the University of Tsukuba, and I focus on building strong fundamentals in technique and discipline. I tailor my coaching to each athlete’s level and goals.
Thanks for visiting, and I hope we get the chance to connect through judo.
