If you are considering martial arts as a way of self-defence, getting and staying fit, then nothing is more successful at helping you achieve those goals than Judo… and there is no better coach than an Olympian and Commonwealth Games gold medalist.
While many successful athletes coach in the larger cities, Jean-Claude has settled with his family in Penrith and believes it’s a great place to live, work and raise a family. Locals benefit from having a well respected coach and Olympic athlete so close to home to impart his skills, knowledge and experience to help others realise their own goals and dreams.
