Overview

Judo stardust from the pixie's wand magically spun by Hedda Sander and Bjorn Deling. Video films were the basis for the eventual adaptation of the sketches of the bear and the pixie. Both of these characters accompany you as you move along the road up to the brown belt. This super mime and copy book form has been well conceived by the two training teachers. It should help and motivate children to achieve the next belt grade... Rolf Pohler, Vice-President of the DJB (Deutscher Judo-Bund/German Judo Association)
