    Can anyone recommend clubs that have classes for kids (age 7) Dublin2/4/6 -> Blackrock'ish area?

    Also some advise, junior is doing gymnastics and started Judo this year and he just seems to like these kind of sports. apart from time trying to fit everything in, is there any downdside for a kid learning a martial art on top of Judo?

    thanks

    A belief in gender identity involves a level of faith as there is nothing tangible to prove its existence which, as something divorced from the physical body, is similar to the idea of a soul. - Colette Colfer

    My advice is to let the child discover new styles as you both go along, he'll find something which clicks with him and stay with it.

    Once the kid is having fun and making new friends don't mind the art.

    Right thats that out of the way, if you want to combine something with the Judo my recommendation would be Brazilian Jiu Jitsu - then you've got both sides of the same coin covered.
