Any good Judo player, known as a Judoka, will perform Judo techniques with ease. They will appear to be done with little effort and supreme control.

What do you need to start Judo.?
Remember - it's not ballet...!
Training in Judo requires very little equipment, in fact the initial outlay is quite cheap for a Judo beginner. The main item is the Judo suit, known as a GI.getting yourself a gi will make your Judo training a lot easier and comfortable.
Judo gi's come in many sizes and colours, as well as grades of material.
Typically, for full on competition, a superior gi is required for both toughness and to get an edge over the other Judoka you are fighting.
When competing it's normally preferred that each Judoka wear a different coloured gi (one blue - one white) to make the referee's job easier.
*THE GOLDEN RULE FOR JUDOGI's*
Don't wash your Gi too often
Only wash in cool water
NEVER, NEVER tumble dry - always drip dry only
ps: all new JudoGi come with a white belt.
