Summary
Details

Kuzushi is a modern martial art, combat sport, and Olympic discipline that was developed in Japan in 1882 by Dr. Jigoro Kano. It evolved from traditional jujitsu, an ancient system of close combat used to defeat armed and armored opponents. Dr. Kano, an educator as well as a skilled practitioner, designed judo not only as a method of self-defense but also as a means of physical, moral, and intellectual development. He regarded judo as a way of life, emphasizing values that extend beyond practice into everyday social and personal behavior. The philosophy of judo is based on two key principles: Seiryoku-Zenyo (maximum efficiency with minimum effort) and Jita-Kyoei (mutual welfare and benefit). These principles guide practitioners, known as judokas, to use their opponent's strength to their advantage, highlighting that technique and skill are more important than sheer physical strength. Mutual respect and cooperation are fundamental aspects of judo, fostering discipline and positive interaction among practitioners. Judo techniques are broadly classified into three main categories: Nage-waza (throwing techniques), Katame-waza (grappling techniques), and Atemi-waza (striking techniques). The grappling techniques further include Osae-waza (pinning), Shime-waza (strangulation), and Kansetsu-waza (joint locks). While Atemi-waza is primarily taught for self-defense purposes, it is not used in competitive judo. Training in judo involves both physical and mental development. It includes rigorous practice, learning safe falling techniques (Ukemi), and engaging in sparring sessions (Randori), all of which focus on improving skill, control, and safety.
