じゅぅどぅぅ Judo means "soft way" in Japanese. Is the "gentle way". Judo originated in part from the hand-to-hand combat technique of ancient Japanese samurai: jujitsu. Judo wins the game by throwing its opponent to the ground. This is the only event in the Olympics that allows opponents to be subdued by choking or twisting their joints. Judo is a highly antagonistic competitive sport, which emphasizes the technical proficiency of players, rather than the comparison of strength. 195 1 year, Japan, Britain and France initiated the establishment of the international judo Federation, and the first world judo championship was held in Tokyo on 1956. 1973 Judo was officially included in the competition in China. Judo is a kind of fighting technique mainly based on wrestling and ground skills. The following is specially arranged for you:

Beginning: the initial road

Speaking of the origin of judo itself, we have to mention the centuries-long tradition of fighting by force, which was formed and developed in different JIU jitsu schools in medieval Japan.

Although the facts seem clear, there is still debate about whether the tradition of self-defense originated in Japan or was introduced to Japan from abroad. This topic is very delicate, because it will involve Japanese patriotism.

There are actually three different versions about the history of Jiu Jitsu. The first version claimed that Jiu Jitsu's hometown was China, and the introduction of cherry blossoms into this island country was related to a monk named Chen Yuanyun from Du Dong. Being assassinated in the Ming Dynasty, he left China and found his refuge in a temple in Edo. He lives in poverty and stays away from the noise. He taught China's calligraphy and philosophy knowledge to countless powerful children and translated China's classical literature. Occasionally, he would travel and draw many scrolls of landscape paintings, but most importantly, he taught many Japanese warriors to master fighting skills, thus making Jiu Jitsu widely popular in Japan.

The second version is related to the name of Musashi Jiusen. According to legend, this man dreamed of a monk who lived in seclusion. One day, after the monk went down the mountain, he taught him the secrets of sprint and pain sports skills. This version proves that Jiu Jitsu originated in Japan. ?

Finally, the story of Dr. Akiyama Shiro is widely known. In winter, he often walks in the garden and enjoys cherry branches. There is also a saying that the cherry tree sleeps peacefully in anticipation of the next spring, wearing a white hat on its head. On one occasion, Akiyama found that the thick branches could not bear the heavy snow and almost all of them were broken. Although the tender and soft branches hung and fell to the ground, they did not break. After the snow fell off the branches, the branches were intact and recovered as before. Akiyama was lost in thought after seeing it, and then he suddenly shouted: "The first impression is to win in the future!" "His words belong to fighting sports. Based on this, he worked hard and finally founded Wushu. In order to broaden his knowledge, he went to China after learning Japanese hand-to-hand combat techniques, such as Foot, which were widely used at that time, and learned some local fighting events in China, such as Lock Boxing and Taiji Tui. After a systematic summary of these techniques, he presented thousands of moves to the Imperial Council with his disciples and like-minded people, which formed the foundation of Jiu Jitsu.

Karl Gagman, a famous German JIU jitsu researcher and cultural scholar, pointed out in the 1920s. The knowledge base of Japanese jujitsu fighting, like other fighting techniques, originated in China. This further confirms Japanese Jiu Jitsu. We also remember that karate came from China, which overthrew what the Japanese called "pure domestic creation" and its purpose was only to improve their own level with "independent intellectual property rights".

Jiu Jitsu, as a term to systematically summarize the experience of bare-chested fighting, appeared at the end of 14. Japanese Wushu flourished for more than 300 years under the Tokugawa era, with nearly 700 JIU jitsu schools. ?

At the end of 19, amazing changes began in Japan. 1868, with the support of radical reform supporters, Meiji became the emperor, and the revolutionary Meiji Restoration began in all fields of society. The country's long-term closed-door period has ended, and the west wind has begun to penetrate into the daily life of ordinary Japanese people. On the stage of history, a generation interested in new things and real things has emerged, and European drama and football have become the symbols of this generation. Bushido tradition has died out, and the ancient martial arts are threatened by it, and the representatives of Bushido clan used to be the carrier of martial arts.

The rapid popularization of western cultural elements in Japanese society also played a certain role in the emergence of judo. This is a multi-directional physical training system, which combines the Bushido spirit and tradition with the Olympic spirit. Its founder is Jana Jgoroh. He was born on 1860, 101October 28th in Yu Ying Town, a small city not far from Kyoto, Hyogo Prefecture. The father of the Kingdom of Ghana can be traced back to the origin of Japanese history. Among his ancestors, there were both Shinto monks, Buddhist schools and Confucius. His mother Zhenzi belongs to the most famous sake producing family. There are two brothers and two sisters in the family, and Jgoroh is the youngest. From his early years, Jgoroh had a strong interest in the study of humanities. Like most Japanese children, he showed diligence and patience. When he reached the age of 1 1, his family moved to Tokyo, and the future judo founder continued his studies in two schools at the same time. He studied very obscure Japanese calligraphy in one school and English in another. He began to receive contemporary education at the age of thirteen, when his father realized his son's talent and transferred him to a private school run by the British. In this school, the young kingdom of Ghana soon became the first in the class. But the PE teacher didn't like him, and the students looked at him disdainfully. From top to bottom, because the kingdom of Ghana is naturally weak, even by Japanese standards, he is short.

In Japan at that time, Jiu Jitsu was neither fashionable nor studied by admirers. For young people with good families, this sport is not considered a very decent sport. Neither father nor friends approve of finding a Jiu Jitsu teacher. Jgoroh's character is very firm, and he can defend his beliefs both when he was young and in his later college years. According to the present scale, Jgoroh started to contact one-on-one hit very late, because he has reached the age of 17. But this can only prove that fighting, like falling in love, is regardless of age, and people of any age can fall in love.

In the search, the young man was pulled into the school of God and Truth founded by Master Uemon in 1795. Yasushi Yagi taught the technical principles to the Kingdom of Ghana. He is a visionary educator with a keen eye and brilliant talent. He discovered the students' talents, gave him the advice he needed, and asked the headmaster, Yasushi Fukuda, to accept him as an apprentice. Yasuo Fukuda has made great achievements in oriental medicine. Besides being an expert in his own work, he also kept the top secret of ancient fighting self-defense devoutly. According to the memory of the Kingdom of Ghana, Yasuo Fukuda was a very kind person, especially fond of young disciples. Training coach Yasuo Fukuda believes that free fighting, that is, freestyle boxing, is the main training method. The idea of Jiu Jitsu technique training is to let students master it in training confrontation after demonstrating one action or another. The Kingdom of Ghana has made great achievements in tenacious training. However, the contact time with this old school is not long. 1879, Mr. Yasuo Fukuda passed away, but he gave all the manuscripts related to this school to Jana Jgoroh.
