If you were to study Judo in Japan, all the Judo people in the U.S. would be VERY impressed. When you came back it would be a prestigous feather in your cap. But you will get your butt kicked alot too. If you are in Tokyo find the Kodokan, home of Judo.Judo would fit right in with Jui-jitsu and Akido because judo practice is for real with all full contact, it gives a good foundation for other sports and makes you a formidable opponent.All martial arts will admit judo as a foundation.
