Bronx Judo and Martial Arts 4.17

BRONX JUDO is a partnership of dedicated life long judoka, many holding very high judo ranks, with the purpose and goal of helping students grow both as judoka and as productive members of our community. Our black belts are certified by USA Judo, the United States Judo Association and the United States Judo Federation. There is always at least one Black Belt instructor (sensei) on the mat at all times, and very often there are several black belt instructors. Judo students at Bronx Judo have an excellent student to teacher ratio.

George is a 7th Dan (red and white belt) and an ex-marine. He has been a prominent judoka and teacher for over 50 years. He started the YMCA International Judo Camp with students and teachers from all over world and the USA. He is not only a teacher and sponsor of various judo events and tournaments, he was an avid competitor winning many significant titles, including the Metropolitan Masters Grand Champion.
