Daitó Ryu

Daitó Ryu is a martial arts club based in Pardubice, Czech Republic, specializing in judo and ju jitsu. Founded by Martin Šaroch in 1992, the school has built a large community of members and says it has the largest membership base in the Pardubice Region. Its two centrally located dojos offer training for children from age three, young athletes, teenagers, adults, and hobby participants. Qualified coaches, who are also active judo or ju jitsu competitors and hold pedagogical education and certification, provide instruction and support for young competitors.

The club’s programs include introductory and recreational judo, advanced training for young people and juniors, and ju jitsu and MMA sessions for participants aged 15 and older. Children can develop coordination and motor skills through games and activities, while older students work on speed, tactics, and combat techniques. Daitó Ryu also runs judo clubs at selected schools in Pardubice, organizes competitions and training camps, and offers weekly parkour sessions. The school provides opportunities to try a training session free of charge.
