Mountain
Martial Arts / Jundokan Goju Ryu of New
Jersey - Kodokan Judo  |
Judo is many
things to different people.
It is a fun sport, an art, a
discipline, a recreational
or social activity, a
fitness program, a means of
self-defense or combat, and
a way of life. It is all of
these and more.
Kodokan Judo comes to us
from the fighting system of
feudal Japan. Founded in
1882 by Dr. Jigoro Kano,
Judo is a refinement of the
ancient martial art of
Jujutsu. Dr. Kano, President
of the University of
Education, Tokyo, studied
these ancient forms and
integrated what he
considered to be the best of
their techniques into what
is now the modern sport of
Judo.
Judo was introduced into the
Olympic Games in 1964 and is
practiced by millions of
people throughout the world
today. People practice Judo
to excel in competition, to
stay in shape, to develop
self-confidence, and for
many other reasons. But most
of all, people do Judo just
for the fun of it. |
