Kanō Jigorō

Born in Mikage, Hyogo Prefecture in 1860, Jigoro Kano systematized traditional jujutsu into modern 'judo,' fusing educational philosophy with martial spirit. As founder of Kodokan judo and the father of Japan's Olympic movement, his principles of 'maximum efficiency' and 'mutual welfare and benefit' hold universal value that transcends martial arts.
