Testimonials

Grace Family

"Woy Woy Judo Club has been wonderful for my boys—boosting their coordination, fitness, and sense of responsibility and respect. It’s more than just a sporting club; it’s a family where everyone supports each other, no matter their level. I feel proud and privileged to be part of such a passionate and caring community."

Orr Family

"My three boys have been doing judo for about three years, and I couldn’t recommend it more. It’s improved their fitness, boosted their confidence in the dojo and other sports, and taught them respect and discipline—especially how to be physical without anger."

Tutic Family

"Growing up in Serbia, I trained in various martial arts, so I was very selective when choosing a place for my five kids to train. Finding Woy Woy Judo Club was the best outcome—it's the ideal environment for building discipline, respect, confidence, and fitness."
