All of them - students of psycho-neurological boarding №11, places that fall after the children's homes, young people come of age.



Eight years ago Judo Federation has decided to help the children's home for mentally retarded children.

Organizers of the project are faced with the need to develop new training methods. This helped them to specialists of the department of rehabilitation and sports medicine SMU, which amounted to a program of studies with people with disabilities.



Thus was born the project "Dr. judo", created by Dmitry Kuznetsov, honored coach of Russia, master of sports (5th dan) and vice president of Judo Federation in Moscow.
