L12 Cultural Notes talks about: にほんのスポーツ
からて
Karate is a combative sport that came from China through Ryukyu Kingdom (present day Okinawa). The competitors of the match do not wear any kind of protection and use only their hands and fists. Compared to other combative sports, karate is a more practical martial art.
けんどう
Kendo is Japanese-style fencing, which originated from kenjutsu, the most important martial art of the samurai. In the match, the competitor wears special protective gear and strikes at the opponent’s head, chest or hand with a bamboo sword.
きゅうどう
Kyudo, which literally means The Way of the Bow, is considered by many to be the purest of all the martial ways. In the past, the Japanese bow was used for hunting, war, court ceremonies, games, and contests of skill.
Do you know たかがり?
In Japan, Falconry, or たかがり is making a comeback! Check out this article about a high school girl who has been bringing back the art of falconry on her own? http://www.japanprobe.com/2012/04/08/schoolgirl-falconer-fights-crows/
