About Judo
In 1882, the late Professor Kano founded the Kodokan Judo. He
learned Jujitsu when he was just 18 years old and made a
thorough study of the subject, including grappling tricks and
all the joint tricks of the Tenjin Shin Yo school, the throwing
tricks of the Nito school and many other methods of attack and
defense then taught in the country. After many contrivances in
studies, he retained those which were excellent in these schools
and eliminated those which were dangerous for the physical
culture, and substituted them with new ones invented by him. To
define Judo is by nature beyond the scope of any short article,
but it is an exercise, a sport, a system of self defense, a
physical, moral and ethical code rigidly followed by it's
advocates. It has for it's object, health, utility, spiritual,
physical and mental training. Judo is not just a martial art, it
is a way of life for Joe and his students. It embraces other
than physical arts of throwing and submission. It has scientific
principles of philosophy, psychology, anatomy and physics. The
principles are not haphazard teachings, but written records
requiring a lifetime of study. There is only one Judo - the Judo
of Professor Jigoro Kano, the founder of the Kodokan Judo
system. This is the Judo that Joe Turchiano teaches at his dojo
in Ronkonkoma, NY (The only Long Island full-time Judo Dojo).
Joe is dedicated to the art of Judo and it shows when he is
teaching his students, which range in age anywhere from 5 years
old to 85 years old.
