Youth Judo

Judo was found by Kano Jigoro Shihan (professor) in 1882. Judo was derived from Jujutsu that was a Japanese traditional martial art. Kano Shihan studied two styles of Jujutsu, Tenjin Shinyo-Ryu, and Kito-Ryu among many Jujutsu schools. Not only learning Jujutsu techniques, but he also began to think that he was able to develop fine people by indicating the way of living through Jujutsu training. Finally, he sublimated Jujutsu that was a fighting method into Judo that aims at character-building. His dojo was named Kodokan which means "a school for studying the way", "the way" being the concept of life itself
