Japan is the land of tea and samurais, but also of art and geishas. Its capital, Tokyo, intrigues and fascinates with its striking contrasts. It is a city at the forefront of new technologies, yet the Japanese also have a deep love for nature, enjoying hot springs, tending bonsai trees, and cherishing cherry blossoms. Tokyo is a city deeply connected to its traditions, preserving its gardens and centuries-old temples, while simultaneously seeing numerous skyscrapers rise. Judo, a Japanese martial art invented in 1882, is practiced barefoot on tatami mats by participants wearing a kimono. This Olympic sport, often associated with discipline and respect for others, reflects Japanese society itself, which places great importance on values such as honor and refinement.

01:00Japan, commonly known as the Land of the Rising Sun, is located on an archipelago to the east of the Asian continent.
01:23A true country of contrasts, it fascinates by its attachment to tradition and by its continual openness to modernity.
01:31To the western eye, Japan is full of surprises.
01:35Its capital, Tokyo, is the largest city in the world.
01:38It has the largest urban area.
01:40Twice stripped off the map, twice burned down, it has been reborn from its ashes.
01:47Its urban landscape has nevertheless managed to keep track of its history while continuing to evolve through the ages.
01:53Entrepreneurs offer even more innovative architectures, which attracts the curiosity of an increasing number of tourists.

02:44Judo, at its origin
02:46is a martial art developed in Japan stemming from techniques of enemy capture
02:50in order to inflict defeat on combat fields.
02:53Today, this sport in Japan is an integral part of the school curriculum.
02:57It is very rare to find private clubs.
03:00The Judo courses at the University of Tokyo
03:03are given by professors who do not tolerate any breach of the rules.
03:07They execute their courses with an iron hand.
03:10The students train at least two hours a day from Monday to Saturday.
03:14Former students often subsidize the courses in order to continue the tradition.
03:19The fundamental technique of Judo is to use the strength of an opponent to one's own advantage.
03:24The traditional uniform is called judogi and consists of a white jacket and pants
03:29as well as a cotton belt or obi.

04:12It's a form of flexible combat.
04:42The two judokas are partners, rather than opponents, since they must allow each other to work.
04:48It is therefore necessary not to block the other person.
04:51on the other hand, moderate resistance to stimulate the conditions for the fight.

07:00Teachers are used to saying that you have to do these throws correctly,
07:24even when you are tired, and that you must perform a quality judo with good techniques,
07:29always trying to progress.
07:53Every child develops their technique at their own speed.
08:00There is not really any typical age to begin.
08:13For certain techniques, in particular, the younger you are, the faster you learn.
08:20But in training, be it hard or fun, one cannot unnecessarily force it, especially when you are small.
08:27Children should be allowed to have fun, for example, with other sport classes in parallel with judo.

09:23This allows you to work on the execution of all kinds of bowel movements without being in a combat situation.
09:28At the same time, there is a person who appreciates the position for an entrail and is therefore a technique that teaches an example of how to loosen up and receive entrails.
09:41I think there is a whole other sport, I think there is a lot of importance to respect.
10:11That's true. We often talk about rigor, both in and of oneself, and then, as a martial art, respect for others is very important.

11:48cleaning with a damp cloth.
11:50It's often a fun time together, ultimately involving the train with the students.
12:03In Japan, students are often dedicated to sports.
12:10In fact, all students participate in at least one sport, and baseball is, for example,
12:15the most popular sport in Japan.
12:17At least, for the past few years, it hasn't stirred up much passion there; it remains
12:22still a highly valued discipline.
12:33There are between 10 and 25 million runners in Japan, because it's a way of life.

12:43In the past, it was rare to have met other runners in the country.

13:03That is to say, there is another Buddhist temple in Tokyo, it is also the Asakusa temple

13:22Most people here come in a traditional outfit, which may even be tucked in for
13:27the day.
13:31To visit this magnificent temple, you will have to pass by the Kaminarimon, which means
13:36Door of Thunder.
13:37There, you will find an enormous red and black paper lantern, symbolizing thunder and lightning.
13:44Upon entering, you will pass through a long trading alley, called the Nakamiseidori, which joins
13:50the majestic Kaminarimon gate to the main building of the temple.
13:55For many centuries, businesses have been fighting to sell their products at a high price.
14:00The stores have a wide array of choice, between food stalls and popular souvenir shops.
14:05Nearly 90 stores follow each other over 250 meters, open all day, without interruption until
14:11evening.

14:18In Buddhist temples, it is not unusual to find an omekuji, which means

14:38After inserting a coin into a machine, a paper is printed with a prediction written on it.

21:08It is red for the first one called and white for the second.
21:15Today, mentalities have evolved and competitions have been open to other kinds of sports such
21:20as wrestling, kickboxing and K1.
21:23Even if one moves away from the sports of tradition, the Nippon Budokan remains a reference for martial
21:28art competitions.

22:15category.
22:16The judges watching the fight sit at the corner and give the referee additional information.

24:04The symbolic clock of the Japanese department store Wako dominates the main crossroads of
24:16the Ginza district.
24:18Located in the district of Chou, it is sometimes nicknamed the Japanese Champs-Élysées.
24:23This is due to the luxury stores, art galleries, restaurants, and upscale cafes that embellish the
24:29agglomeration.
24:30Many of the world's luxury brands, particularly French ones, are fighting to settle down and
24:35find a place.
24:36During a stroll in Ginza, you can shop in stores and showrooms of prestigious brands such as
24:41Dior, Cartier, Louis Vuitton, or even Chaumet.
25:07In order to attract passers-by, most brands boldly compete in the architecture and decoration
25:12of their facades.
25:19Inaugurated in 2012, the Tokyo Skytree Tower has overshadowed the Tokyo Tower, which was

25:28Today, it is the Tokyo Skytree which has become one of the main attractions of the city.
25:33This digital broadcast tower has two observatories, as well as a shopping mall at its base.
25:38It is one of the tallest towers in the world, with a climax at 634 meters.

26:01Finding itself twice in ruins, once during the Cantese earthquake of 1923, and again during
26:07bombings in the Second World War, the urban landscape of the city is composed of modern and contemporary
26:13architecture, while old buildings are rare.
26:16The creator of judo, Jigaro Kano, founded the first Kotokan in 1882 with a room containing
26:45only twelve tatami mats.
26:48This Kotokan, which literally means, School for Study of the Hue, was the third and last
26:52place where Jigaro Kano taught his martial art.
26:56Today, it is still honored in what has become an international judo center run by the Japanese
27:01federation, the All Japan Judo Federation.
27:05It is a large sports complex with eight floors.
27:08The main dojo is on the seventh floor, while the last floor is used to observe the training
27:13and can accommodate 900 spectators.
27:16More modern and bigger than the previous one, it contains more dojos, some reserved for women,
27:22children, or private pupils.
27:24It is possible to train on-site, whatever your level, by registering and paying a daily fee.
27:31Many judges of all levels, as well as enthusiasts, can attend the main dojo events and visit the
27:37Kotokan Museum is free.

27:50There are 500 shops in which you can enjoy many different types of Chinese cuisine.
27:55Great festivals are organized throughout the year, of which one of the most spectacular is, of course, the Chinese New Year.
28:14It was Japan's opening to the world in the mid-19th century that brought many Chinese to Yokohama and made this Chinatown so impressive.
28:22It sounds so impressive.
28:52It says Australia is coming.
28:53Now, that's a very beautiful set of associations.
28:55It's a very beautiful place that will be the same.
28:57It's a beautiful place to look at the world.
28:58It's almost impossible to try there, and it's a beautiful place.
29:03It's a beautiful place to be the same as the local chitin.
29:06And is an incredible place to be the same as the local chitin.
29:09And the establishment of the shop is a very economic place to go to the city.
29:10It's almost impossible to be the same as the local chitin.

29:50Kendojo
30:20Kendo is the oldest and most respected of the modern disciplines of Japanese martial arts.
30:41Its origins go back to the time of the samurai, where the art of kendo was part of the 18 martial arts that had to be practiced by the cast of leaders called bushi or samurai.
30:51Kendo is the modern version of kenjutsu, or swordmanship, formerly practiced in Japan by the samurai.
31:02It is a form of two-handed saber fencing where the use of suitable equipment, bamboo swords and a protective armor, the strikes are carried out in a real way.
31:11Subtitling by Radio-Canada
31:41Kendo is made up of four slats of bamboo attached to each other.
31:45It is the wooden version of the katana, Japanese saber, and varies with the category of the practitioner, his age and his level.
31:52The kiai is a cry obtained by a strong ventral expiration.
31:59It makes it possible to release the efforts at the time of the strike.
32:03In kendo, beginners are taught to shout the name of the party targeted by the strike in order to develop it.
32:09As the student progresses, the kiai will be replaced by a more personal cry.
32:13Greetings are done at the beginning and at the end of the course.
32:37It is part of respect and courtesy taught in kendo.
32:39It may vary according to professors and dojos.
32:42At the end of the lessons, the students go to the teachers to ask for advice in order to improve.
33:12Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
33:21All right, sir!
34:21As in most Shinto shrines, it is possible to make wishes or prayers thanks to the wooden shelves called ima.
34:36It is sufficient to inscribe one's wish or prayer on the tablet for a small fee
34:40and then to hang it at the portico provided for this purpose near the temple for it to be read by the gods.

39:00The goal of Jigoro Kano was not to teach self-defense techniques, but to create an educational
39:05discipline.
39:28It is said that Judo presents itself as a global discipline that strengthens the body and the
39:33mind, and that is what every teacher tries to instill in Japan.
39:51Training begins in general with stretching and muscle warm-ups.
40:18No part of the body is left behind, even all the way to the neck muscle.
