Book excerpt: Judo, or the Way of Gentleness, an ideal form of physical exercise and a reliable system. of self-defense, was specially created from traditional Japanese martial arts. This book by the creator of Kodokan judo is uniquely comprehensive and the most authoritative guide to this martial art ever published. Over a hundred years ago Jigoro Kano mastered swordsmanship and hand-to-hand combat. Failing to discover any underlying principle, he set about designing a new martial art to reflect the concept of maximum efficiency in the use of physical and mental energy. Today, the concepts and techniques of judo taught at the Kodokan are the ones originally devised by their creator and collected together in this book. Covering everything from the fundamental techniques to prearranged formal exercises for both men and women, the book offers detailed explanations of how techniques are combined in two types of practice: randori (free practice) and kata (the practice of forms). In addition to a discussion of traditional methods of resuscitation, the book concludes with a useful appendix of information on the founder and the Kodokan International Judo Center, and a glossary of judo terminology. Fully illustrated throughout, Kodokan Judo will help students and instructors everywhere to discover the principles, techniques, and spirit of this popular martial art.

Book excerpt: This book is a collection of the life's work and essential teachings of Jigoro Kano, who founded Kodokan Judo in Tokyo in 1882. Kodokan Judo was for Kano the culmination of a lifelong devotion to the jujutsu of the past, which he reorganized along educational lines while taking great care to retain its classical traditions. In doing so, he opened the path from jutsu (skill) to do (way), and broadened the horizons of knowledge until he reached the point at which he began to advocate seiryoku zenyo (maximum efficiency) and jita kyoei (mutual prosperity), which represent the universality and ideal of human existence, and are the core values of judo.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The best guide to learning jiu-jitsu ever written in English, this is the most comprehensive study available. It describes the authentic form of judo developed in the late 19th century by Professor Jiguro Kano — not the many imitations often called by this name. Officially recognized by the Japanese government as the preeminent school of jiu-jitsu, the Kano system was the method in which Japanese armed forces and police were trained. The complete system of 160 holds and throws is clearly explained, with 487 photographs and four charts providing further clarification. Pressure points, balance, falling, and every other important aspect receives full and complete treatment. The first section presents 60 "tricks" of combat in strict sequence that prepare for part two, in which readers learn how to apply the advantages of the tricks they've learned. The third section deals with highly scientific tricks of combat, by which an opponent may be incapacitated — and the methods of kuatsu, or resuscitation, by which a fallen opponent may be revived. Martial arts students at every level of experience will find this classic guide a source of valuable information and instruction.

It is said that the original book played a big role in founding the International Judo Association and in helping Judo become an Olympic sport in 1964. Kyuzo Mifune (1883-1965) began Judo as a child, and in 1920 was awarded the highest possible rank of 10th dan - the only man ever to reach this height. Called the god of judo', he was so famous that '10th-Dan' replaced his name! Legend has it that in his sixty years of practice he never lost a match and was never thrown.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A martial arts biography of the legendary founder of judo, Jigoro Kano, and the colorful coterie of disciples who wanted to carry on his legacy Kodokan judo, one of the most well-known martial arts in the world today, was originated by Jigoro Kano (1860–1938), a martial artist and career educator who developed the art after studying several types of jujutsu, sumo, and Western wrestling. Openness and refinement were hallmarks of his personal and professional style, and he relentlessly searched for the best way to practice, teach, and perform techniques. This biography shows how Kano saw judo as a vehicle not just for self-defense, but for physical, spiritual, and moral development as well. His teachings clearly emphasize his ideal of judo as a way of self-cultivation that leads to physical health, ethical behavior, and ultimately a better society. Kano was a tireless activist who promoted the practical application of judo’s principles in all realms of life—in one’s personal behavior, for education, in work, for economic benefit, and in both the local and international political arenas. Kano’s students were a colorful, sometimes notorious bunch, and this book reveals how several went on to become famous—or infamous—in their own right. They include a prime minister of Japan, the leader of the Communist party in China, a famous novelist, a spy, high-level military leaders, and a media mogul, among many others.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever thought about the day-to-day life of Jigoro Kano? What was daily life like in the first years since the founding of the Kodokan? We are sure that you as a lover of Judo and martial arts at some point have had the curiosity to know intimately the events of those years that forged the legend that of the newly created Jujutsu school of Jigoro Kano and later renamed as Judo and the extraordinary expansion on all continents. Jigoro Kano Shihan was an extraordinary man, a visionary, an exceptional educator who knew how to reform Jujutsu to adapt it to the new times, preventing it from becoming extinct as happened with other Japanese arts. In this novel, the authors have the romantic intention of transporting the reader to those difficult times, full of uncertainty and social instability. We encourage you to put yourself in the shoes of Jigoro Kano and his disciples; we share with you his joys and achievements and also his fears and failures. Dojoyaburi referred to a type of challenge that ancient martial arts schools use to set up their difference and often had fatal consequences. Surviving those days, standing out as a new Jujutsu school and creating a network of instructors and students who spread the art all over the world was an extremely difficult and complex task that only a great human being like Jigoro Kano could make possible with the incomparable help of his trusted disciples. The events take place from 1881, before creating the Kodokan, until 1884 where the first challenge between the Totsuka Yoshin ryu School and the Kodokan takes place. To give it the form of a novel we have carried out an exhaustive work with documentation and research. We have united our perspective of the facts, dressing the events with a magical realism so the reader can feel them just as we feel them. Open the book and travel through time to experience those events that were recorded for eternity. Happy Reading.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Judo Formal Techniques is "The most detailed explanation of Judo that has ever been published" (The Japan Times). A comprehensive training manual to the basic "free practice" forms of Kodokan Judo (the Randori no Kata), the book provides essential instruction in the throwing and grappling kata (Nage no Kata and Katame no Kata) that every Judo practitioner needs to master. The authors are two of the world's top instructors--Donn F. Draeger and Tadao Otaki. Both were instructors at the Kodokan Judo Institute in Tokyo--the headquarters of international Judo, which was founded by the creator of the martial art, Jigoro Kano. Draeger, considered by many to be the first non-Japanese Budo master, was an authority on Asian martial culture who held high ranks and teaching licenses in several martial arts. He was a prolific writer and was the first non-Japanese Judo instructor at the Kodokan. Otaki was not only a successful Judo instructor but also a university professor who was widely praised for his research on the role of Judo in education. Draeger and Otaki based their text on Jigoro Kano's published and unpublished personal writings. Recapturing the original spirit and intent of the essential Judo kata, they are presented in the standard Kodokan versions as refined by generations of practitioners. Richly illustrated with over 1,000 photos and drawings, Judo Formal Techniques offers complete step-by-step instructions for the roles of both training partners. In addition to the core techniques of throwing and grappling, it explains the important transitional movements as well as grips, stances, and postures. First introduced as an Olympic sport at the 1964 Tokyo Olympics, Judo is returning to its home city on the world stage at the 2020 Olympics. Practiced by more than 20 million people worldwide, Judo is only expected to continue growing in popularity. A new foreword by Judo instructor Neil Ohlenkamp sheds light on the book's lasting importance as the classic "Kata bible" for Judo students and instructors alike and an indispensable resource for all martial arts practitioners.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout his life, Jigoro Kano worked continuously for the diffusion, promotion and improvement of the ́Kodokan Judo ́.Since its founding in 1882 as a modern and evolved system of Ju-Jitsu, Kano provided not only an extensive technical curriculum, but also a philosophical approach, which made Kodokan Judo somewhat different from the warrior arts of the past. There are many documents currently available to the judo enthusiast, and it is relatively easy to get a general idea of Master Kano's thinking. But there are old writings, phrases, tips, maxims and proverbs that are hardly known today, unknown to most, all of them written directly by Jigoro Kano, where we learn through his thoughts the traditional principles of Kodokan Judo, competition, techniques of self-defense, social and family relations, proper time use and ultimately how to be useful in society among many other aspects. We have had the opportunity to gather all this material and through this work we have put it to the full service for all lovers of martial arts. We also include photos of the founding master of Kodokan Judo, some of them unpublished. Desiring that this work is to your liking, we recommend you to carefully read each sentence, each line and each paragraph, then you will perceive the enormous capacity and richness of the thoughts of a man who was ahead of his time to leave us as a legacy this beautiful art: Kodokan Judo.
