ðĨ Fun Facts About Judo
Judo comes from Japan, and its name roughly means gentle way. Instead of punching or kicking, judo students learn throws and holds. One of the very first things they practice is how to fall safely, so nobody gets hurt. Partners bow to each other before and after every exercise, because respect and fair play are part of every class. Judo has been an Olympic sport for many decades.
