Extractions: Judo is a martial art that was born in Japan, and it is now known around the world as an Olympic sport. Judo was established in 1882 by combining jujitsu, a form of wrestling, with mental discipline. The roots of jujitsu lie in sumo , which has a long, long history; sumo is mentioned in the Nihon shoki (Chronicle of Japan), a document from 720 that describes the history of Japan from the mythical age of the gods until the time of Empress Jito, who reigned from 686 to 697. From the twelfth to the nineteenth century Japan was ruled by the samurai, a class of professional soldiers. This provided fertile ground for various martial arts to develop. In addition to fighting with swords and bows and arrows, the samurai developed jujitsu to fight enemies at close quarters on the battlefield. Several different styles of jujitsu evolved, and hand-to-hand combat spread as an important form of military training. The era of samurai rule came to an end with the Meiji Restoration of 1868, and Western culture began filtering in into Japanese society.

Extractions: 13 Books Judo Books: "E-F-G " Every Boy's Judo . A.P. Harrington. Signet, 1959. A surprisingly good introduction to Judo from warm-ups, to basic movement, to some relatively advanced techniques including some surprising variations on arm locks not found anywhere else. Every Girl's Judo A.P. Harrington. Emerson Books, Inc., 1960. 127 pp. Hardcover. A good Judo book covering a broad range of skills, and a nice section on "necklocks" (chokes) and self defense from a woman's perspective. All of the line drawings have been changed to show a girl or woman performing the technique, but Harrington does not suggest that woman should not be doing the full range of technical Judo Skills, to the contrary, he covers the full range of standard, basic Judo. The Father of Judo. Amazon Books. Fighting Judo . Katsuhiko Kashiwazaki. Pelham Books, 1985. This is an inspiring book because, firstly, the photography in this book is matchless. No martial art book conveys the spirit of its art through photography better than this one. Secondly, its author is one of the premier grappling and sutemi waza specialists, and this book reflects his specialty. Thirdly, he is a bit of a philosopher, and it shows through in short sidebars throughout the book. His own story, in a brief chapter at the end, is inspiring, and shows that suffering, which is inherent in the sport aspect of Judo, produces a wisdom and a spirit and a character missing from those martial arts which dabble in the theory of movement without the suffering of defeat.

Extractions: Judo's Founder J udo literally translates as "gentle way" or "way of flexibility." Judo was founded by Dr. Jigoro Kano in 1882. Born in 1860, Kano had a weak constitution. Around the age of 20, Kano learned Jujitsu, (also spelled Jujutsu), convinced of the need to train hisbody and mind. Around the age of 25, Kano became a master and a strong man. At that time, Jujitsu did not enjoy a good reputation in view of the fact that all sorts of undesirable people practiced it at the expense of others. That is why Kano adopted the name Judo. In 1882, with nine pupils, he opened the first judo school (the Kodokan). Today, Judo is an Olympic sport that allows students to measure the effectiveness of their training in friendly competition. Although not taught as an art of self-defense, Judo techniques can be used for personal protection.

Recorded history of the Games dates back to 776 B.C., when the five days of sporting events were primarily religious ceremonies. For the first known 13 Games, the competition consisted of single foot race of 200 yards, which was the approximate length of the Olympic stadium. The Games expanded to include additional contests and reached their height by fifth century BC. Men competed, in the nude, in running, wrestling, pentathlon, horse riding and chariot races. Why in the nude well, to keep the ladies out of the action. Women were barred from watching or competing, and were even put to death if they were caught at the early Games. Today, not only are women allowed to watch and compete, they are encouraged to do so. Check out a few of our historical Olympic pages here at usolympicteam.com.

Extractions: "The history of judo is the history of the shift from a martial art to a modern sport. It tells first how a man, Jigoro Kano, devoted himself to the education of the youth of his country, blending traditions and modernity, using individual prowess for collective benefits. In 1870, soon after the death of his mother, his father decided to move to Tokyo. It was then a time of great cultural and social ferment in Japan, from which Kano obviously benefited. In Tokyo, already brought up on Confucian classics, he was put into another Confucian school. At the same time he was sent for English lessons to Mitsukuri Shuhei, a renowned scholar who was to belong to a group of influential thinkers, dedicated to educational reforms. In his early teens, Kano developed a strong taste for math and showed a particular affinity for languages. Throughout his life his language abilities were exceptional. During his study of jujutsu his notes were written in English, probably to secure the confidentiality of his research at a time of intense rivalry among jujutsu schools. In his old age, he kept also his diaries in English. In 1877, Kano was eager to learn more about this ancient practice. After months of patient research, he finally managed to find a former Kobusho jujutsu master, Fukuda Hachinosuke. The latter became his first teacher, which was reluctantly accepted by his father who saw no future in this old tradition. Two years later, when General Ulysses Grant came to Japan, Kano knew enough to take part in a jujutsu demonstration.

Extractions: Texas Judo is a non-profit corporation under 501-c-3 incorporated in the state of Texas in 1980 and serves as the state governing body for the sport of Judo in Texas. The corporation is a member of USA Judo, the national governing body for Judo which serves as a member of the United States Olympic Committee, the Pan American Judo Organization, and the International Judo Federation. It's beginning was much earlier. Roy H. "Pop" Moore, Sr. came to Texas in 1957 as chief official of the 2nd Air Force Judo Championships held in Austin. Pop's foster son was Emelio Bruno, who was in charge of combative measures, Judo, and physical fitness for the Strategic Air Command of the U.S. Air Force. Pop liked the city and Texans so much he decided to stay. In the late 1950's there were only a few clubs in Texas: Denton Jr. Optimist with Curley Freeman, Mose Woodson, and Tom Coyle; Geis/Landers in Houston with Karl Geis and Rick Landers, Ft Worth Judo Club with Sam Numajiri, and Austin Judo Club started by Pop Moore. From there the state Judo membership has grown to one of the largest in the U.S. The initial organization was called the Southwestern U.S. Judo Association and encompassed the states of Texas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and New Mexico. The organization was taken from parts of the Rocky Mountain and Shufu Yudanshakais but did not have official sanction. In 1961 the Judo Black Belt Federation, the technical body for Judo in the U.S. under an agreement with the Amateur Athletic Union, approved the territory reduced to the state of Texas as the Texas Judo Black Belt Association. In the 1960's the organization grew to about 40 clubs with a total of over 1,000 members and conducted tournaments with so many competitors it took two days to complete them.
