About Cranford JKC

Established in 1962 by Yoshisada Yonezuka, the Cranford Judo Karate Center has been home to many aspiring students, world-class athletes, and Olympic medalists. After training several Olympic and World team athletes including his son Nick, Yoshisada was asked to be the Head Coach of the US Judo Team for the 1988 and 1992 Olympic Games. The Dojo walls display the club’s history in photographs, newpaper and magazine articles from Olympic Games, World Championships, Junior National, Junior World Championships, Karate World Championships, and Sumo Championships. These artifacts are a tribute to the many years of dedication and training of these stellar athletes of all ages.

Children's Judo
The foundation of our children’s curriculum is the education and development of life skills, such as discipline, respect, confidence, socialization, learning to compete, self-control, mental, and physical perseverance. The class focuses on developing the most fundamental skills that young students require to effectively learn Judo. Examples of these skills are learning to fall safely, throwing techniques, and basic hold-downs. This provides basic coordination, balance, speed, and agility. By challenging their mind, bodies, and by learning something new every day, your child will see his/her improvement in themselves and therefore build true self-confidence, which carries over to all challenges in life.
