I liked that they engaged and interacted with the kids, even though it was a big group.
About
This is a special FREE online class presented by KidPass Live Stage (https://kidp.as/live). KidPass Live Stage is a free livestream series that is open for the community and showcases many of the incredible classes and instructors on KidPass.
At Hanabi, as we jump and spin we develop balance, coordination and confidence. And we have fun! We start out learning our names in Japanese then do movement exercises and some simple judo techniques that teach us to fall safely. We place a strong emphasis on culture so everyone speaks, and sings, in the language of Japan. We learn to “nete” (lie down) and to “tonde” (leap) like a “raion” (lion).
Judo allows a smaller person to control an opponent bigger and stronger than themselves. We practice throws where our opponent can be flipped upside down – on our jackets.
Hanabi means "Fireworks" in Japanese and its energy, color and excitement express the spirit of our judo.

About
Kids will love the Jiu Jitsu programs at Hanabi Judo in Albany, California. For half a century, this gym has provided Albany and Berkeley families with high-quality Jiu Jitsu programs for all ages and abilities. The gym's goal is to become a healthy and fun part of children's lives with its encouraging, friendly and welcoming environment. From beginning classes and family judo to women’s judo and kata, they offer classes for children and adults alike! Register your child in a pre-judo and beginning judo class where kids will start learning basic Jiu Jitsu moves through movement exercises, tumbling and some simple judo techniques (that are entirely safe!). Once kids advance, they'll learn more advanced skills and movements, and test their technique in a comfortable environment.
