What the school's say:
Arlecdon Primary
"Having had Judo as an extra-curricular sports option has greatly benefitted the children. Everyone who has participated has learnt ag great deal form the Judo sessions including: self-control and discipline."
Bransty Community School
"We have realised the full potential of children participating in the sport: they have benefitted from being part of a well supported team and their skills have increased greatly. The children have grasped a good sense of self defence with controlled and well managed support. They work well as a team and their self confidence and self esteem has flourished."
Bookwell Primary
"The children thoroughly enjoyed trying a new sport. Before the course some of the children were a little nervous but once they started they looked forward to the variety of each Judo lesson."
Gosforth CoE Primary
"I invited Janice into school following a questionnaire that the children were given which told me that they didn't know what Judo was. Janice came to school and provided each class with an hour-long introduction to Judo. The children thoroughly enjoyed the sessions. Janice was enthusiastic and encouraging and more importantly made sure all the children, regardless of ability, were fully included."
Jericho Primary
"Janice is an excellent coach and inspires her pupils in a fun and "gentle way". Our children thoroughly enjoy the sessions and many have gone on to attain grades. Janice is always punctual, reliable and shows great enthusiasm ."
Kirkland Academy (formerly Lamplugh CoE)
"Having Judo in our school has provided us with a new dimension and the opportunity to try a sport that is not always easily accessible. All children who take part do so with enthusiasm and enjoyment: the social aspect being just as important as the skills training. Janice caters for a wide range of ages and has taught groups of children aged between 7 and 11. She is a committed an enthusiastic Judo teacher who enjoys a very positive relationship with the pupils."
Moor Row Community School
"Janice has been coming into our school for a few years now and the children love the judo session. Janice is professional, knowledgeable and has a great manner with the children. We've all had lots of fun whilst keeping fit and learning new skills!"
West Lakes Academy
"Janice provided our GCSE students with a fantastic ten week course, after which the students were able to raise their attainment scores. They also had a lot of fun. Janice is an extremely professional, knowledgeable instructor and I would recommend booking a Judo course wholeheartedly and without reservation."
Whitehaven Academy (formerly Whitehaven School)
Janice has run a number of effective and enjoyable taster sessions that have formed part of a positive transition process for students attending Whitehaven. Students have been fully involved and participated with enthusiasm throughout the sessions."
