Judo
Judo is a Japanese martial art that was created in the late 19th century by Professor Jigoro Kano. Its main objective is to develop the body and mind, teach self-defense techniques, and promote social integration. Judo is practiced worldwide and has been an Olympic sport since the Tokyo Games in 1964.
In Japan, judo is an important part of the national culture and is taught in schools and universities. The philosophy of judo is based on the principles of "jita kyoei" (mutual benefit and prosperity) and "seiryoku zenyo" (maximum efficiency with minimum effort). Judo is an activity that teaches values such as respect, discipline, humility, self-control, and courage.
