My name is Richard Roper (Phone
Number Below)I have been teaching Judo for some 20 years.
I have been doing Judo since I was 9 years old. I am a second
degree black belt (NiDan), Sports Trainer and Level 2 NCAS Coach.
I am Married with 4 grown boys who have all started judo with
me from the age of 5 Years old.
As I have been doing Judo for so long and have had extensive contest
experience in that time I am well equipped to prepare the students
(Judoka) for contest and I encourage but not require all my students
to compete.
I have had extensive experience in running youth groups Sunday
schools as well as young peoples and children's camps as a leader
since I was 16. This I think has given me a unique insight to
the issue that children and young people confront daily allowing
me to better tailor much of my lesson plan for them. My intention
behind this is to help prepare them for what ever may confront
them.
My life experience with a growing family, my work with street
people and drop-in centres as well as my travels have given me
a prospective on how people should look after themselves in real
life and varied situations. I take great care in passing this
information on.
Judo has always been a spiritual experience for me. I choose to
interpret this experience through my Christian faith. The spirit
of Judo is not about the contest it is about self development.
This is some thing that I encourage in all my students.
