Judo is one martial art where competitors take a lot of physical abuse. With grappling and throwing moves, as well as submission holds, it takes dedication to compete. While it is an amazing sport for the spectator, true Judo can only be experienced by learning the sport yourself.



As with most martial arts, Judo is practiced in a traditional gi. There are two different styles of gi ? the single weave and the double weave. However, for the true competitor, only the double weave will do. The double weave fabric is designed to take more of a beating, standing up through the grabs and throws that come with both practice and competition. While you can get by with a single weave for practice, a double weave gi is a must for tournament wear.
