Judo is known for its spectacular throwing techniques, but it also includes numerous techniques for controlling an opponent while on the ground, including ground holds, arm locks, chokes and strangles.

Judo is practised for many different reasons such as exercise, self-defence or as a social activity. It promotes flexibility, develops speed and co-ordination, strengthens the cardiovascular system and promotes balanced muscular development.
