The Judo Way of Life started off as a way of sharing David’s training program and competition results at the time.In 2015, David relocated to Sydney Australia, where he still regularly trains and occasionally competes, however, his focus has shifted towards coaching and mentoring of the next generation of Judoka. With this, The Judo Way of Life has also evolved into an educational platform, aimed at helping to make Judo more accessible to others.David is currently a 4th Dan Black Belt in Judo and a Purple Belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. He has been training in Judo for over 25 years and has 20 years of coaching experience. For David’s competition results visit: Judo Inside.
