In the radiant realm of North Carolina, nestled amid the breathtaking blue ridges and the sparkling Atlantic coastline, exists a super special sect of sprightly youngsters who are utterly bewitched by the sport of Judo. This isn't your ordinary group of kids; no siree! These are the "Judo Jamboree Juggernauts" (JJJs for short) and they are as quirky as they come! First, there's Bouncy Benny, a freckled, red-haired whirlwind with a fondness for peanut butter and pickle sandwiches. Benny's never met a Judo move that he didn't like, and his special creation, "the Pickled Peanut Butter Flip," leaves his opponents dazed, amazed, and slightly hungry. Then we have Giggling Gracie, the unofficial queen of laughter. Her giggle is as contagious as the common cold and often leaves her opponents in stitches (not the medical kind, though!). Her signature move, the “Giggle Grip", has the uncanny ability to turn the dourest of matches into a tickle fest! In the mystical land of NC, these Judo-enthused whippersnappers don't just practice their martial art; they sprinkle their unique blend of fun, laughter, and a dash of silliness into every bout. Whether they're flipping, gripping, tossing or tripping, the Judo Jamboree Juggernauts are North Carolina’s finest examples of how to enjoy life while learning Judo. So, if you find yourself in the Tar Heel State, look out for the bouncing Benny, the giggling Gracie, and the rest of the Judo Jamboree Juggernauts - they're easy to spot; they're the ones having the most fun!

It is an amalgamation of various classical arts, some of which have been practiced for over a thousand years.

Chung Do Kwan/Oh Do Kwan features elements of multiple martial arts, such as Tae Kwon Do, Shotokan Karate, Shorin Ryu Karate, Shaolin Kung Fu and Tai Chi Chuan.
