We gathered a quite heterogeneous group, from the most varied areas (economy, medicine, journalism, Internet, judo technicians and physical education) with something in common: the strong, serious and current judo.
Since we believe that nothing better than those who participated, endured and studied a high level judo to talk about it.
For us, veterans, it is very pleasant to see that "what was planted by our teachers and irrigated by ourselves, now produces first quality fruits".
As always, we ask you all to criticize, send your suggestions, materials, and participate actively so that our pages get the more complete as possible.
