Above is a three week section of a twelve week judo program for primaries. That is, children up to 10 years of age.

This schedule is intended to be run over two nights a week. The timings are shown in minutes or a percenatge of the available time. Points to note are:

It is not intended that a child will start week one and by week twelve be capable of performing all the techniques and obtaining the grade associated with that level of technique. This is a reference and not a rigid timetable.

Implementation will depend upon the number of children in the class, the number of instructors, the ability of the children and their attendance frequency.

The order of delivery does not have to be the same as the table. For example, some of the terms could be introduced at the start of the class. In fact, matte should be the first thing that a new member learns and understands. Terminology is best taught to children with a context to help understanding.

It may also be appropriate to repeat sessions or move some students along quicker than others.

The introduction of armlocks and strangles is intended for the primaries who are older than 8 years. It is NOT appropriate for, NOR intended that, very young children should be shown these techniques. Even the older children must be capable of understanding the danger associated with these techniques before being shown them.

Caution and discretion required.

At this age the techniques are not allowed in competition and should be shown to enhance the child's knowledge and not their technique. They are required for grading to primary blue tabs.
