What is the judo moral code?
Jigoro Kano invented a set of values for judoka to follow which is called the judo moral code.
In this series we look at how we can encourage these values in a dojo through every-day examples, with supporting coaching resources including eight moral code posters and eight study sheets.
Friendship
Learning judo is a great way for children to build friendships, with plenty of opportunity for shared experiences and fun. These are bonds that will last a life-time, and friendships are one of judo’s greatest gifts to us all.
Six examples of Friendship in the Dojo
- Accepting and respecting all judoka for who they are.
- Cheering your club mates on at tournaments
- Encouraging a team mate who is going through a hard patch.
- Attending club events and volunteering to help out when you can.
- Lending your judogi to a friend who forgot theirs so they can participate.
- Checking in your mates and asking how they are.
