“As a father coach, I’ve perused through dozens of Judo books to find the one that made the most sense to a young Judoka under 10 years old. Wow, this book is it! Very simple to read and understand. My son and I read it together and he gets it very easily.”
“This is, without doubt, the best kid’s book series on Judo anywhere in the world. The bright colors and animated characters are perfect to be naturally appealing to kids. But make no mistake, the technical knowledge contained in the books is anything but childish. If you are looking for a book that you can use in teaching Judo to kids, you simply can’t find better than this series by Olympic medalist Nik Fairbrother. (Trust me, I’ve looked.)”
“I bought Judo Terminology, together with 20 Judo Combinations, 10 Judo Hold Downs, Judo Breakfalls, Judo Throws and Judo Groundwork for my 8 year old who wanted to start judo. From the very start he was able to easily understand all of the books. They are excellently written, are very engaging and are illustrated superbly. The explanations and descriptions of the moves have helped my son to understand so much faster and put into practice what his instructor is teaching him. They are now his favourite books. Nik Fairbrother has given the judo enthusiasts a product which is second to none.”
“Love these books. Great for kids all ages! Plus on-line supplemental resources to help with the learning. Highly recommended.”
“I discovered Nik Fairbrother’s Koka Kids several years ago. All of the books and materials are designed in such a way that it’s immediately accessible to children. I have been using the materials and the books with my adult Judo students as well. They are without a doubt best series I’ve even seen – fun and professionally produced.”
