Judo<\/h3>\n

Judo is a Japanese martial art and combat sport created in 1882 by Jigoro Kano<\/strong>. The main aim of judo is to throw or immobilize the opponent on the ground, using sweeping, throwing and control techniques. Judo emphasizes using the opponent’s strength and energy to one’s advantage, rather than relying solely on one’s own strength. Judo training typically includes warm-up exercises, throwing techniques, ground techniques and randoris (sparring). Judo has been an Olympic sport since 1964.<\/p>\n

Aikido<\/h3>\n

Aikido is a modern Japanese martial art developed by Morihei Ueshiba in the early 20th century<\/strong>. It is based on techniques from jujitsu, kenjutsu and other classical martial arts. Aikido is characterized by circular, fluid movements designed to neutralize an opponent’s attack by using one’s own strength and energy against him. Aikido practitioners learn to deflect, throw and immobilize their opponent without resorting to brute force. Aikido training includes warm-up exercises, movement techniques, throwing techniques and exercises with weapons such as the bokken<\/strong> (wooden sword) and jo (short stick).<\/p>\n

Karate<\/h3>\n

Karate is a martial art and combat sport originating in Okinawa<\/strong>, Japan. It focuses primarily on striking techniques using fists, feet, knees and elbows. Karate emphasizes strength, speed, precision and discipline, as well as the development of the practitioner’s character and spirit. Karate training generally includes warm-up exercises, striking techniques, kata (forms or sequences of movements), and kumite (free or pre-arranged sparring). Karate became an Olympic sport in 2020. These disciplines, practiced in dedicated halls such as the Halle des Sports Richard T\u00e9telin<\/strong>, offer participants the opportunity to learn and master fighting techniques, strengthen their physical condition, improve their personal discipline and develop a keen sense of respect for other practitioners.<\/p>\n
