The Spirit of Judo — 柔道 (Judo) by Kumagon
Free Shipping. Taxes are not included and will be calculated at checkout.
This calligraphy scroll features the bold characters 柔道 (Judo), a word that means far more than just a martial art. Judo is both a discipline and a philosophy — a way to strengthen the body, calm the mind, and develop character through practice.
As an Olympic sport, Judo has gained worldwide recognition — yet its roots remain deeply tied to the values and traditions of Japan, where it was born.
Judo cannot be practiced alone. It requires an opponent, and with that comes a spirit of gratitude. Practitioners bow with sincerity, win or lose, expressing respect and thanks to their partner. Even in international competition, each match begins and ends with a bow — an essential practice that reflects Judo’s core values of respect and discipline.
This scroll reflects the heart of Judo: balance, mutual respect, and the pursuit of mastery through controlled technique. It is perfect for those who live the Judo way — whether through dedicated training or by embracing its spirit as a way of life.
Hang this scroll in your dojo or home as a daily reminder of quiet strength, thoughtful movement, and the lifelong journey that Judo inspires.
Note: This artwork features only two characters, so its vertical length is approximately 4 inches shorter than our scrolls with three or more characters. Please keep this design difference in mind when ordering.
