THE SPORT

In all regions of the world . there is some form of unarmed combat which has sprouted from the primitive roots of yesterday.

Through the years geographical and

cultural influences hove shaped these various forms of combat into the contact sports we know today. Boxing and w resfling are present day, Western world devel· opments of unarmed com bot.

However, in Japan, a form of unarmed combat has emerged which is more than a contact sport. It teaches not only contest proficiency, but develops the mind and the body - follows a strict moral code. It is a sport, a physico! culture, a phi.

losophv . It is known as Judo ..

lithe gentle art."

Judo was developed by Professor Jigaro Kano. At the age of eighteen, the professor began a long, intensive study of jujitsu - an ancient method of unarmed combat practiced by Japanese warriors. This is how Professor Kano described the developing of Judo from that study,

4

"While studying jujitsu, not only did I find it interesting, but I also realized it was most effective for the training of both the body and the mind. So by taking together all the good points I had learned of the various schools and adding my own inventions and discoveries, I devised a new system for physical culture and moral training .. as well as winning contests." This was the birth of Judo.

Professor Kano, along with nine students, established the Kodokan in Tokyo in 1882 to develop the science of Judo. Today, Kodokan Judo is practiced all over the world. The Kodokan directs the

techniques, safety, and instruction of Judo wherever it is practiced.

Judo, though evolved from jujitsu, is not intended to be a crippling form of combat. It is a sport - to be studied and played according to the rules and ceremonies of the Kodokan.

Kodokan translated means: "A school of studying the 'way'." The "way" is the practice of using maximum efficiency and minimum effort to overcome an opponent. This book is an introduction to the "vcav."

As a Judoka, or Judo player, you must know how to wear the judo uniform. This uniform, or Judogi, is composed of three - trousers, jacket, and belt.

5

The trousers, made of heavy cotton, are reinforced at the knees and have a loop at the waist. They are loose fitting and should extend at least half way between your knees and ankles.

After you have put on the trousers, pull the draw-string out sideways to tighten the waistband.

Pass one end of the draw-string through the loop of the trousers

. then pass the other end through the loop. Tie both ends of the draw-string into a bow knot.

Now, put on the [c cket and bring the right side loosely across the body. Cross the left side of the jccket over the right side so that the lower edge is parallel with the waist. The sleeves of the Judogi are loose fitting, and should extend half way between the elbow and wrist.

6

The Judogi belt should be long enough to encircle your body two and a half times. First, grasp the belt in the middle and pass

Cross one side of the belt, either right or left, over the other at the waist. Tuck the end of the belt, which is in. front of the crossover, under both loops.

it around your waist from fro.nt to rear, so that it crosses in the middle of your back. Next, bring both ends around to the front.

Now tie both ends into a loose square knot. Tighten the knot by pulling both ends of the belt. This completes your dress.

This is a sequence demonstrating side-toside body rolling. Lying on your back raise your head, shoulders and legs off the mat. Bring your right arm up and away from the body, palm outward.

Roll over on your right side bringing

both legs and your right arm down together, striking the mat as a single unit. The outer edge of the right foot, the inner edge of the left foot, and the striking arm all break the fall simultaneously. At the conclusion of the roll both feet should be parallel and about waist width apart.

Without hesitation bring both feet up in a high arc and repeat the roll to the other side: one continuous action from side-to-

26

side, without stopping. NOTE, Head and upper neck are off the mat at all times.

When your Judo instructor feels you are ready, the falling practice may be started from a sitting position. With legs extended, raise your arms to the front bringing them simultaneously over your head. Then

topple over backwards swinging your legs up in a generous arc as shown, Bring the arms downward in the slapping motion learned, timing the action to beat the mat just at the moment your upper bock makes contact.

At the end of the sequence note the head and shoulders never touch the mat. Chin should be kept on the chest and your eyes should be trained on-the knot on your belt.

The action is continuous - at the completion of the backfoll, you return without pause to a sitting position and then the backfoll is repeated.

After your instructor decides you have mastered Ukemi from a sitting position you

may advance to practicing I the fall from a

squat.

27

This is the sequence of action. With arms extended, fingers slightly overlapping, buttocks resting on your raised heels ...

. roll over backwards, raising your arms overhead.

Again, as your bock makes contact, your arms should be brought down with a slicing motion to strike the mat just as your back makes contact .

. then bring your arms up with a snap . and return to a squat position in one continuous motion. In falling, remember to

keep the buttocks close to the heels and your head and neck .!!E. off the ~

28

This is the sequence of the backfall from a standing position. With arms parallel to the floor.

... start dropping your body by bending your knees and raising your toes. As you are lowering raise your arms high.

Tuck your heels in close to your buttocks as in the fall from a squat.

moment your balance is lost, your arms should be brought down sharply to strike the mat at the same time as the back makes contact. legs should be brought up and over in the follow·through. Chin tucked in. Head and neck off the mat. Keep your eyes focused on the knot on yaur belt. Allow your arms to snap up and off the mat at the finish of the arm beat . Rise and repeat.

Bring your left foot back parallel to your right foot, knees bent.

70

At this precise moment you suddenly str qiqhten your knees, come up on your toes, bend the upper body forward, bring. ing your hands and arms down in a pantomime of an actual throw. The whole movement should be free-flowing and continuous. You repeat this practice, changing to the left natural posture. Similiar self-practice exercises can be used to perfect all of the Judo techniques.

This concludes the demonstration of throwing techniques. These beginning throws were selected from each of the many .hrowinq methods existing. They are the introductory throws recommended by the Kodokan in Tokyo.

We confined ourselves solely to illustrating the various throws from the right natural posture, because after you have mastered the throws from the right side you will experience no great difficulty in applying the same methods to a left _ hand start. Work hard to refine your throwing techniques - they will serve you well in your Judo days to come.

s

In order to be a complete Judo player you must also learn how to handle yourself well on the mat. Judo experts say, "40% of a player's training time should be devoted to the refinement of mat techniques." This is a study of these techniques - holds

and escapes. The first technique we're going to demonstrate is Kesa-Gatame (Scarf Hold or lock). You approach your opponent by dropping to one knee close to his chest as you see here.

Then you h"

drowin ~rasp IS right arm at the elbow

. g hIS arm deeply under your left armpit as you see in these two illustrations.

This gives you strong control of your opponent's right arm. Then
