Have you ever thought about the day-to-day life of Jigoro Kano? What was daily life like in the first years since the founding of the Kodokan?
We are sure that you as a lover of Judo and martial arts at some point have had the curiosity to know intimately the events of those years that forged the legend that of the newly created Jujutsu school of Jigoro Kano and later renamed as Judo and the extraordinary expansion on all continents.
Jigoro Kano Shihan was an extraordinary man, a visionary, an exceptional educator who knew how to reform Jujutsu to adapt it to the new times, preventing it from becoming extinct as happened with other Japanese arts.
In this novel, the authors have the romantic intention of transporting the reader to those difficult times, full of uncertainty and social instability.
We encourage you to put yourself in the shoes of Jigoro Kano and his disciples; we share with you his joys and achievements and also his fears and failures.
Dojoyaburi referred to a type of challenge that ancient martial arts schools use to set up their difference and often had fatal consequences. Surviving those days, standing out as a new Jujutsu school and creating a network of instructors and students who spread the art all over the world was an extremely difficult and complex task that only a great human being like Jigoro Kano could make possible with the incomparable help of his trusted disciples.
The events take place from 1881, before creating the Kodokan, until 1884 where the first challenge between the Totsuka Yoshin ryu School and the Kodokan takes place. To give it the form of a novel we have carried out an exhaustive work with documentation and research. We have united our perspective of the facts, dressing the events with a magical realism so the reader can feel them just as we feel them.
Open the book and travel through time to experience those events that were recorded for eternity. Happy Reading.
