World class coaches that do a great job of making everyone feel comfortable no matter what your skill level. If you're looking to train hard for competitions or looking for a fun way to exercise and stay in shape like me you will find it here. Everyone is supportive and you can tell right away from the positive team atmosphere. I am very happy I found Sensei Kathy, Chris, Aaron and the entire Lake Country Judo team!

Lake Country Judo club is where it's at folks! The number of Senseis that have dedicated their time to come out and teach the younger athletes is amazing! As a parent, I appreciate the combination of fun, accountability, training and competition opportunity my son receives. There is strong, multi generational mentorship happening at LCJC which… is such an important component to raising well rounded, confident young people. You only have to come once to see that this is a tight knit family who care for, support and encourage one another to reach their full potential!

Got to spend time with amazing group of people and compete in my first judo competitions last month.
I have always had ton of respect for athletes that have trained judo, I would watch videos or live match’s of their beautiful throws.
Extremely thankful for coaches and teammates that were there to provide words of encouragement. An help me feel prepared and confident on the mats.
Absolutely love the environment of the gym and positive energy coaches bring to mats each class.

Sensei Kathy has reinvigorated my passion for Judo! All the people at Lake country judo club are great! after taking more than 15 years away from judo I was welcomed in with open arms and only a small amount of time training together was able to secure a silver medal in my first tournament! High level techniques and high level coaches, mixed with a high level of passion are the ingredients for success! Lake country judo has all of the above!!!
