Judo is a modern martial art that originated in Japan. It was established by Jigoro Kano in 1882 as a physical, mental, and moral pedagogy. The philosophy and pedagogy of Judo gained momentum in the years following its founding and evolved into a significant combat sport. The first Judo Olympics for men were held at the 1964 Games in Tokyo, and Judo became an official medal event for women in 1992.
What defines Judo most is its competitive element. During a Judo competition, opponents can be taken down by being thrown, pinned, or forced to the ground, or by being otherwise subdued or immobilized. As Judo competitions mainly consist of grappling maneuvers and throws, the suits – consisting of trousers, a jacket, and a belt – need to be loose-fitting and made of hard-wearing materials.
In a Judo competition, weapons, strikes, and thrusts are not allowed – these are only allowed in “kata”, a carefully choreographed movement practice.
