Head Coach

Idris
Boussetoua

BJA Level 3 Coach · 6th Dan Black Belt (Rokudan)

Idris has been doing judo his whole life. As a six-time Algerian National Champion and long-standing member of the Algerian National Team, he competed at the highest levels of the sport throughout the late 1980s. That experience — the pressure, the discipline, the technical detail — is what he now brings to every session in Tower Hamlets.

He's not about shortcuts. He teaches judo the right way: proper technique, consistent work, and the mindset that goes with it. Whether you're a total beginner or an experienced judoka, you'll be coached properly.
