To contact the instructors, send e-mail to info@princetonjudo.org.
Fees
Judo classes are offered through the YWCA Programs Office. You must be a YWCA member in order to attend class. After becoming a member, you may either register for the class each semester or pay a $13 walk-on mat fee per class if you do not plan on attending regularly.
Equipment
The only equipment required is a gi (uniform). The club owns a limited number of gis that may be borrowed until you can obtain your own. Gis may be purchased at any well-stocked martial arts supply store, or online. We recommend Hatashita. Note that judo gis are generally sturdier than those used for karate, taekwondo, or other martial arts that do not involve grappling. Jiu-jitsu gis are appropriate and may be used for judo as well.
Directions
Driving directions are available from the YWCA website, or from Google Maps.
