Mathieu Remazeilles, PhD

Judo

I am a black belt in judo and a former champion. See French newspaper article on the right, with English translation hereafter: Mathieu Remazeilles has also just been promoted to 1st Dan black belt at the age of 16, having accumulated 100 points, after an outstanding season. Also a first-year cadet, he was 1st in the Landes Championship, 1st in the Aquitaine Championship, 1st in the Inter-Regional Championship, and 5th in the French National Championship in Paris.

In high school, I was enrolled in the Sports-Studies programme at the Pole France Judo in Bordeaux, where I trained daily and competed at national and international levels.

Here is a YouTube video featuring some of the best actions in judo fights.



Card tricks

I enjoy magic tricks with a deck of 52 cards, and my favourite authors in this field are Bob Hummer, Stewart James, Simon Aronson, and John Bannon.
