About Us
About us at NAEF
Neil Adams Effective Fighting Ltd is a company dedicated to the quality development of the Olympic sport of Judo at all levels. Our mission is to promote the technical development of judo & martial arts and create environments that aid in the forums of good sportsmanship, realizing goals, and overall health and fitness for individuals and families.
Although our business namesake, Neil Adams MBE, is known mostly for his Olympic & World Championship results in Judo, we have been asked on several occasions to address the needs of the developing judoka and the coaching system that supports them.
Judo 9th Dan and Olympic coach, Neil Adams MBE is known for his glittering medal tally of 5 European Titles, 2 Olympic Silver medals and his World Championship Gold. He is world-renowned for his technical excellence as is demonstrated by his involvement with the European Expert Commission (EJU), and as The Voice of Judo for his international commentary on the Judo World Circuit.
Neil is committed to giving back to the sport and to deliver a solid foundation to an ever-evolving technical sport. His knack of quick, reflective assessment of techniques and learning abilities is key to the programs we provide. His analysis and ability to read the situations as they currently unfold, not only make him the top commentator for the sport but a cutting-edge analyst and coach educator.
Our programs are about obtaining quality teaching concepts to better the lesson planning and sessions of judo coaches who pass this on to their clubs. We are determined to create coaches with technical excellence, which in turn creates a solid foundation for teaching & instruction.
