No matter how tall you are or what kind of shape your body has, judo can be done by anyone, even if you have a tail. Our friends of the animal kingdom are more than happy to tell and show you how judo is done at a judo dojo. With the help of funny cartoons and explanations, you will learn what judo is all about. Why is it important to break a fall? Why should you never skip a warming up session? Did you ever wonder what those Japanese names really mean? Why do we meditate before we start the lesson? You can find the answer to these questions and more in this book. The basic techniques of judo are explained using funny illustrations.
