                              Jigoro Kano was born on 28 October 1860 and he offered his services in this world till 4 May 1938. Kano was the founder of judo. Judo was the first Japanese martial art to gain widespread international recognition, and the first to become an official Olympic sport. Pedagogical innovations attributed to Kano include the use of black and white belts, and the introduction of Dan ranking to show the relative ranking between members of a martial art style. Well-known mottoes attributed to Kano include "Maximum Efficiency with Minimum Effort" and "Mutual Welfare and Benefit." In his professional life Kano was an educator. Important postings included serving as director of primary education for the Ministry of Education from 1898–1901, and as president of Tokyo Higher Normal School from 1901 until 1920. He played a key role in making judo and kendo part of the Japanese public school programs of the 1910s.

               Kano was also a pioneer of international sports. Accomplishments included being the first Asian member of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) he served from 1909 until 1938; officially representing Japan at most Olympic Games held between 1912 and 1936; and serving as a leading spokesman for Japan's bid for the 1940 Olympic Games. His official honors and decorations included the First Order of Merit and Grand Order of the Rising Sun and the Third Imperial Degree. Kano was inducted into the IJF Hall of Fame on 14 May 1999.

                   Jigoro Kano was born to a sake brewing family in the town of Mikage, Japan which is now within Higashinada-ku, Kobe. The family sake brands included Shiroshika, Hakutsuru, and Kiku-Masamune. However, Kano's father Kano Jirosaku Kireshiba was an adopted son who did not go into the family business. Instead he worked as a lay priest and as a senior clerk for a shipping line. Kano's father was a great believer in the power of education, and he provided Jigoro, his third son, with an excellent education. The boy's early teachers included the neo-Confucian scholars Yamamoto Chikuun and Akita Shusetsu. Kano's mother died when the boy was nine years old, and his father moved the family to Tokyo. The young Kano was enrolled in private schools, and had his own English language tutor. In 1874 he was sent to a private school run by Europeans to improve his English and German skills.

At the time Kano stood 5 feet 2 inches but weighed only 41 kg. He wished he were stronger. One day, Nakai Baisei who was a friend of the family who was a member of the shogun's guard, mentioned that jujutsu was an excellent form of physical training. He then showed Kano a few techniques by which a smaller man might overcome a larger and stronger opponent. Kano decided he wanted to learn the art despite Nakai's insistence that such training was out of date and somewhat dangerous. Kano's father also discouraged him from jujutsu, telling him to pursue a modern sport instead.

Ryoko Tani and Judo Tickets

Ryoko Tani was born on September 6, 1975. Tani is one of the world's most famous and successful judoka. She was born in Fukuoka, Fukuoka. She was an employee at Toyota Motor Corporation, but is now entering politics.

She is commonly known as Yawara chan or Tawara. Since she won the International Women's Judo Championships in 1990, Yawara chan has gone on to win the event every year. She has a record seven world titles and she brought home the 48 kg category gold medal from Sydney Olympics in 2000 and the Athens Olympics in 2004. Her 84 match winning streak was finally broken in 1996 by North Korea's Kye Sun Hui. She holds a fourth dan. In 2003, she married Yoshitomo Tani, an Olympian and professional baseball player then with the Orix Blue Wave now with the Yomiuri Giants.

In Beijing in 2008 Tani, who had not been beaten in a major international competition since the Atlanta Games in 1996, saw her hopes of a third-straight gold evaporate when judges awarded penalty points to Romania's Alina Dumitru after both competitors failed to show much aggression. Looking stunned, Tani fought desperately after the final controversial penalty call, but with only seconds left she had no time to mount an attack. Tani lost the 2007 All-Japan Weight Class Judo Championship, which doubles as the qualifier for Olympics and the World Championships on those years when the events take place, but was selected as Japan's representative anyway by the All Japan Judo Federation (AJJF). She then won the gold medal in the Rio de Janeiro World Championships. Tani lost the All Japan again in April 2008, to 21 year old Emi Yamagishi. Again, the AJJF selected Tani for Japan's team in place of Yamagishi.

After winning the gold medal, Ishii expressed his wishes to apply his talents in the sport of mixed martial arts (MMA) to the dismay of the Japanese Judo Federation. Ishii originally confirmed that he signed a contract with Japanese MMA promotion Fighting and Entertainment Group (FEG) and was rumored to debut in early 2009 in their fight series, DREAM. Japanese newspaper Sports Nippon then reported that Ishii would make his ring debut on December 31, 2009 at the annual K-1 Premium Dynamite event at the Saitama Super Arena. However, Ishii announced that he rejected FEG's offer, and was planning to pursue his MMA career in the US' Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). He headed to Florida where he trained with two of MMA's top camps American Top Team and Extreme Couture.

On June 1, 2009, Ishii announced he would join Japanese MMA organization World Victory Road. He officially signed with the organization at a public signing event on June 4, 2009. On September 14, 2009, it was announced that Ishii would make his MMA debut against fellow Olympic judo gold medalist Hidehiko Yoshida. Although the fight was originally to take place at World Victory Road's New Year show on December 31, when that event was cancelled, the fight was moved to DREAM's Dynamite 2009 card on New Year's Eve as a co-promoted show. Ishii lost the match by unanimous decision.

Philosophy of Judo and Judo Tickets

The philosophy of Judo reflects on the gentle and the dynamic. Judo itself is defined as the "gentle way." What that means that you do not put up a resistance to force. Instead of resisting the force, you move with the force. In short, do not meet force with force as it will only cause friction. In a sense, you submit to the force of your attacker. Again, do not meet force head on or you are merely wasting your energy.

It has been borrowed from Judo's processor, Jiu-Jitsu. Instead of using force to resist, do not resist. Give way to the force instead of taking it head on. This is for using defense against your attacker's offense. This is pretty much the grappling aspect for Judo. If someone pulls you, you push. If someone pushes you, you pull. Your attacker may be using force, but s/he is not in complete control of it. This is why you give way instead of meeting resistance. Use your attacker's force to your advantage.

While you are giving way, you are being gentle about it. When you pull when being pushed, you are being gentle. When you push when being pulled, you are being gentle. In short, the gentleness could be using indirect means of applying force. In a sense you are applying force. But, you are not directly applying your own force. You are applying your opponent's force.

Use your opponent's strength and momentum against him/herself. This is the definition of the "way of softness." In a sense, this is similar to Jiu-Jitsu. However, there is a difference.

Judo is favorite art and sport of everyone. You can watch it live in arena at Olympic 2012, London. Buy JudoTickets to watch it live in Olympics. You can buy Judo Tickets from Global Ticket Market. Global Ticket Market offers you all types of Olympic Tickets very securely and at cheap rates.

Keiko Fukuda and judo

           
     Keiko Fuku was born on April 12, 1913. She is the highest ranked female judo practitioner in history, holding the rank of 9th dan from the Kodokan and the United States Judo Federation (USJF), and 10th dan from USA Judo, and is the last surviving student of Jigoro Kano, founder of judo. She is a renowned pioneer of women's judo, being the first woman promoted to 6th dan (c. 1972), and later 9th dan (2006), by the Kodokan. She is also the first and, so far, only woman promoted to 10th dan in the art. After completing her formal education in Japan, Fukuda visited the United States of America to teach in the 1950s and 1960s, and eventually settled there. She continues to teach her art in the San Francisco Bay Area.

               
                    Fukuda was born on April 12, 1913, in Tokyo, Japan. Her father died when she was very young. As a youth, she learned the arts of calligraphy, flower arrangement, and the tea ceremony; typical pursuits for a woman in Japan at that time.  Despite her conventional upbringing, Fukuda felt close to judo through memories of her grandfather, and one day went with her mother to watch a judo training session. A few months later, she decided to begin training for herself. Her mother and brother supported this decision, but her uncle was opposed to the idea. Her mother and brother had thought that Fukuda would eventually marry one of the judo practitioners, but she never married, instead becoming a judo expert herself.

       

                 Fukuda's grandfather, Fukuda Hachinosuke, had been a samurai and master of Tenjin Shinyo ryu jujutsu, and he had taught that art to Jigoro Kano, founder of judo and head of the Kodokan. Kano had studied under three jujutsu masters before founding judo, and Fukuda's grandfather had been the first of these men. Kano had taught female students as early as 1893, and had formally opened the joshi bu of the Kodokan in 1926. He personally invited the young Fukuda to study judo an unusual gesture for that time as a mark of respect for her grandfather. She began training in judo in 1935, as one of only 24 women training at the Kodokan. Apart from instruction by judo's founder, Fukuda also learned from Kyuzo Mifune.

             Fukuda still teaches judo three times each week, hosts the annual Fukuda Invitational Kata Championships, and teaches at the annual Joshi Judo Camp. She has established the Keiko Fukuda Judo Scholarship to encourage and enable women to continue their formal training in the art. Apart from teaching in the USA, she has also taught in Australia, Canada, France, Norway, and the Philippines. Fukuda's personal motto is: "Be gentle, kind, and beautiful, yet firm and strong, both mentally and physically.

Tamio Kurihara and Judo Tickets

Tamio Kurihara, a man of honour at 10th Dan and a Champion of Ten-Ran Shiai 1929.

Kurihara was born in 1896 in Himeji City, Japan. After he was beaten by Yamagata in high school by newaza, he vowed to train and practice day and night. Quickly he became a mat-technique expert. Because his father was a physician Kurihara initially wanted to follow Japanese tradition and also become a physician. However his Judo sensei appreciated his talent and persuaded his father to allow him to pursue Judo as a career. "There are many physicians in Japan; we should not waste his talents as a judoka. Your son will be a Judo champion of Japan in the future." Kurihara's Judo teacher told this to his father. In 1915 he entered Busen (Professional Martial Art Academy) in Kyoto. One of his senseis, Isogai 10th dan, told him early on, "You are not very talented; therefore you need to practice harder than others." Kurihara took his sensei's advice seriously and jogged daily at Yoshita hill and tachiki uchi-komied (practiced against a tree) twice as much as his rivals. His hard work definitely paid off. When he graduated at the age of 23, he was Yon Dan, the youngest judoka of that rank in his school.

One of Kurihara's biggest wins was at the Ten-Ran Shiai (special tournament held in the presence of Japanese emperor) in 1929. He was 34 years old, 6th dan and at 5'4'', 160cm; and 165 lbs, 75kg, one of the smallest of the 32 competitors. In the preliminary rounds he defeated his opponents with Juji-gatame, seoi-nage and tsuri-komi goshi. After defeating his quarterfinal opponent with yokoshiho gatame the field was down to an elite few. His semifinal match was with Abe (5'9'', 175cm; and 210 lbs, 95 kg). Abe was unable use his harai-goshi and Kurihara countered with tai-otoshi, kouchi gari, and tomoenage to no avail. Eventually Kurihara tried a choke for 2 minutes, but Abe would not quit. The fight ended at 29minutes and 30 seconds when Kurihara won by decision, based on his aggressiveness. His final match was against Wushi-jima (5'6'', 170cm, 78.8kg, 26 years old) who was all Japan champion in 1931 and 1932. Wushi-jima won his preliminary matches in 1'55'' with kamishiho gatame and in 4'23'' with yoko shiho gatame and 1'05'' with yoko shiho gatame. He proved his ability to fight in both long and short matches when he won his quarter final match in 33 minutes with Uchi-mata. The final match between Kurihara and Wushi-jima was scoreless for 25 minutes. Kurihara was the obvious aggressor and was declared the champion. By prevailing against stronger and younger opponents Tamio Kurihara displayed the true value of judo.
