It’s Mental Health Awareness Week and this year’s theme is movement, from small simple things like dancing around your kitchen or going out for a walk to doing martial arts and doing a tandem ride. 

Today, our Paulina chats with one young man about his love of judo and how he fell in love with the sport.

Image shows Daniel and senior coach Christopher Martin posing together in front of a Hamilton Judo Club Inclusion banner. They're dressed in their white judogi, the traditional uniform comprising of three parts: a very heavy jacket, lighter canvas pants, and a cotton belt. Daniel's belt is bright orange and Christopher's is black. They're both holding up a thumbs up and Daniel is showing off his medal in his other hand.
