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 $15 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. 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.
