The Judo Club of Cheniménil has scheduled its upcoming open house event for Saturday, September 5, running from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. local time at the dojo inside the Maison des Associations, located at 9 Rue de la Gare in Cheniménil, France. According to club announcements, the afternoon session gives prospective participants an opportunity to explore three distinct martial arts and combat disciplines ahead of the active training calendar.
Class Offerings and Schedule Structure for the 2026/27 Season
For the upcoming 2026/27 campaign, the organization has structured its curriculum around three primary disciplines: traditional judo, jujitsu, and taïso. Training schedules cater to various age brackets and experience levels, ensuring children, teenagers, and older adults find suitable pathways for physical development.
Judo instruction is divided into three distinct youth groups based on birth year, skill level, and individual progress. Children aged 4 to 6 years old train on Wednesdays from 4:30 p.m. to 5:15 p.m. Sessions for 7-to-9-year-olds run Wednesdays from 5:15 p.m. to 6:15 p.m., while athletes aged 10 and older practice from 6:15 p.m. to 7:15 p.m. on the same day.
For participants interested in self-defense and technical grappling, jujitsu classes open to anyone aged 12 and older are scheduled on Wednesdays from 7:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Additionally, the club offers open training blocks on Mondays from 7:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., allowing judoka and jujitsukas to focus on specific techniques, belt preparation, or competitive sparring.
Taïso Programs and Senior Fitness Classes
Beyond competitive and traditional martial arts, the club places significant emphasis on taïso, a conditioning discipline rooted in judo warm-up exercises. General taïso sessions take place on Tuesday evenings from 7:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. and Friday evenings from 8:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.
To accommodate older participants or individuals managing physical health concerns, the club runs a specialized Taïso Seniors class. This modified regimen offers a gentler pace and is scheduled on Fridays from 4:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m.
Trial Sessions and Registration Details
To encourage community participation during the open house and throughout the opening weeks of the season, the club provides two complimentary trial sessions for newcomers across every offered discipline. Visitors attending the September 5 event can tour the dojo facilities, meet instructors, and gather specific details regarding annual membership fees and registration procedures.
