Judo柔道

Judo is a Japanese martial art that was created in the late 19th century. It is a form of grappling that emphasizes throws, holds, and submissions, and it has become one of the most popular and widely-practiced martial arts in the world.

Judo is much more than just a sport or a form of physical exercise, and it has a strong emphasis on personal development and self-improvement.

The practice of judo typically involves sparring with a partner, with the goal of taking the opponent down and pinning them, or submitting them with a hold or choke. It is a physically demanding and dynamic sport, and requires a combination of strength, speed, and technique.

Judo has a rich history and tradition, and has been an Olympic sport since 1964. It is widely recognized as one of the most effective forms of self-defense, and is practiced by people of all ages and backgrounds around the world.
