JUDOKAN 9
Go there and contact
By pushing the door of this small neighborhood club, we first discover the good humour and enthusiasm of Cécile Mas, the founder of the site in 2009 and the only teacher at the moment (black belt 3rd Dan and 7 th at the last Championships of France). In fact, so far reserved for Children, Judokan 9 will soon open to adults, which will require the arrival of other teachers. The courses last one hour and take place in the gymnasium of the Auvergne Tower in the 9 th arrondissement, just steps from Notre-Dame-de-Lorette church. They bring together small groups of 10 to 15 children: 5-6 years, 7-11 years and 11-15 years. Judokan 9 is affiliated with the French Judo Federation, so teaching is rather classical and focused on the fundamentals of judo, which does not prevent the club from presenting its chicks and minimal at the championships of Ile-de-France. After heating in the form of games, the technical bases are discussed and then worked alone or to two in combinations. Small battles traditionally complete the meetings. A charming small neighborhood club is expected to double or triple its staff with the arrival of the big ones.
