The San Jose Buddhist Judo Club is one of the oldest and most reputable Judo clubs in the Bay Area. It was established in 1947 and has produced many champions and outstanding students. The students have learned to use the disciplines of Judo to perfect themselves, to cultivate trust and respect from others, and to become a value to society.

The San Jose Buddhist Judo Club is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Thanks to our dedicated instructors, who donate all of their time and effort as volunteers, we are able to provide quality instruction in the art and sport of Judo at a minimum monthly fee to students of all ages. At 264 members in 2009/2010, we are the largest Judo club in the United States and we pride ourselves in serving the community with a means for families and individuals to enjoy Judo as an organized sport or recreational activity.
