Abstract

The process of teaching-learning judo has developed from a single competition-oriented focus towards the diversification of goals that aim to provide a broader sense of physical activity, ranging from educational to health-related aspects and including, of course, sporting competition. With this in mind we sought the opinion of active judo teachers with regard to the traditional teaching of the sport. We received almost a thousand responses from teachers, who felt that the order in which techniques are taught ought to be changed to take the following aspects into consideration: the safety of participants, ease of execution and motivation.


Key words: go-kyo, judo, novice, teaching-learning programme
