As judo coaches, we all instinctively know that our great sport has at least as much to offer to participants away from the mat in everyday life as it has on it, but it can sometimes be difficult to articulate exactly what this looks like.
This 3-hour BJA coach revalidation course attempts to begin to offer one possible definition. You will be taken through a simple 8-point presentation on how judo principles can be used in a school classroom context delivering any curriculum subject effectively by engaging pupils and managing their behaviour.
These principles have been tried and tested over nearly a decade with school staff in multiple contexts including primary, secondary, 16-18 colleges & initial teacher training higher education establishments.
10 simple principles to help us to:
● Apply judo principles to work, relationships, and daily life ● Use judo for managing junior players' behaviour ● Life is a fight — judo helps us persevere ● Find your personal 'judo' outside the mat ● Emphasize mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects of judo ● Understand the core values of judo ● Respond to life's challenges by adapting and countering
