Violence is a reaction to fear; a loss of power; a feeling of frustration. Violence comesfrom within yourself. Also, today's parents are concemed with self- defense.They ask, "Can she defend herselP" Of course not! A child can be taught specific techniques of self-defense, skills of refwal, and many avoidance techniques, but a child's safety is always the responsibility of the adult. In the dojo the instructor has the opportturity to teach right from wrong, and for the older children, how to analyze a situation for self- defense.The emphasisin the dojo is not to fight your way out of a situation, but rather to leam to seea difficult time coming and how to avoid or work around it. The challengesof teaching children are small compared to its rewards.

  • Rediscovering Kodokan Judo
    Rediscovering Kodokan Judo Rediscovering Kodokan Judo by Llyr C Jones PhD © 2005 Llyr C Jones, All Rights Reserved Introduction It is well known that the word judo comes from a combination of two Japanese words – ju meaning gentle and do meaning path or way. This makes judo literally the gentle way. At the level of first principles, the essence of Kodokan1 Judo [1] is the turning an opponent's strength and overcoming by means of skill rather than sheer strength. This theory is captured by the Japanese expression ju yoku go o seisu – usually translated in a number of ways e.g. softness overcomes hardness, flexibility overcomes stiffness, gentleness controls strength or win by yielding. Watching the seemingly effortless combination of grace, technique and power of a true judo expert in action it would be very easy (but very wrong) to underestimate the intense physical and mental demands that judo makes upon its exponents. Achieving excellence in judo demands considerable single-mindedness, and achieving mastery of all of the throwing, grappling and striking techniques that makes up the discipline demands serious and arduous training over an extended period of time under the guidance of an experienced and knowledgeable teacher. Judo is now practised in almost every country in the world. However, the aim of this paper is to question the direction that judo has taken and to challenge whether a significant re-orientation is required? The State of the Nation As a starting point it is worthwhile stating the definition of judo as provided by the Kodokan New Japanese-English Dictionary of Judo [2]: judo – ….a martial art formulated by Jigoro Kano based on his reformulation and adaptation of several classical jujutsu systems as well as his own philosophical ideals.
