Vietnamese Kung Fu: Kaikido should receive more attention. Morocco was one of the contestants in the World Club Championships and landed in the first three spots . it is also the only sport representing Morocco in Vietnam which hosted the World Festival of Martial Arts. We will certainly be in the World Cup in Berlin. Thanks

I do judo and I am proud of it, but there are some boys who do judo just to touch the girls inappropriately, for example crazy moves and especially ground moves.

You have forgotten Moroccan junior and senior champion in '73. He is always present and he is still training abroad. Despite all that, he wasn’t fortunate enough to join the Moroccan team.

We have an excellent judo coach, Hassan El Baz. He is great.

A former judo-practitioner, at age 17 I left for France to study, leaving behind me a small list of wins in the regional and national championships. I would love to take it back up again. Long live the FUS forever and ever!

EMAN Posted 2009-05-10

I have practised Judo for a short period and enjoyed it so much. I hope to join a professional club to get a professional training in Judo. I agree with Imane that some guys have other intentions than sport as an art. Do you have any suggestion about clubs in Morocco?

I am a judo student from Marrakesh. I live and breathe judo. Without judo, there's no life for me. My master, Mohamed Taleb, is a sixth dan. I am very proud of him. I have just a small response for Miss Najwa: The girls are the ones forcing the guys to do these moves! :D –See you soon
