About Ringwood Judo

Proudly Teaching Judo in Ringwood Since 1975

Investing Back Into Our Club

Ringwood Judo Club is run for its members.

Every year, we work hard to reinvest club funds back into the dojo so our judoka have the best possible place to train.

In 2025, we invested £10,000 into a brand new mat area, giving our children, teens and adults a safer, cleaner and better training space.

This investment reflects what the club is about: supporting our members, improving our facilities and building a stronger future for judo in Ringwood.
