Saison Judo

「技はいろいろ、カードはひとつ。」 “Many techniques, one card.”

Judo (柔道, jÅ«dō), meaning “gentle way”, is a modern Japanese martial art (gendai budō) and combat sport, that originated in Japan in the late nineteenth century. Its most prominent feature is its competitive element, where the object is to either throw one’s opponent to the ground, immobilize or otherwise subdue one’s opponent with a grappling maneuver, or force an opponent to submit by joint locking the elbow or by applying a choke.

There are a variety of techniques recognized by Kodokan (講道館) judo (柔道) and other budo (武道).
