What is “3.0”?

“judo3.0” is intended to upgrade Judo education.

On 1882, Kano Jigoro sensei created Judo from Jujutsu (ver1.0). Thanks to this innovation, the techniques to kill or conquer others were changed to the educational method including intellectual education, physical education, ethical education.

At the Olympics in 1964, Judo became an official event.  Judo has developed as competition in the world of sport (ver2.0). Thanks to this innovation, Every Judo player has opportunities to join games managed by fair rule and a lot of people can watch Judo through media.

Judo has been upgraded in this way, so what is the next innovation?  What innovation will you make?  “judo3.0” means that we are the group which makes the third innovation and upgrade Judo education.
