Sports

Next up we are going to talk about a tradicional sport, Aikido. Aikido was developed by Morihei Ueshiba after World War II. This martial art goes beyond the development of self-defense capabilities and combines philosophical, religious and cultural elements. One of the basic characteristics of Aikido is that it is a martial art oriented more to personal development than to its application as a fighting technique. Also for that reason, Aikido is also a non-competitive martial art. In Aikido there are no confrontations with other competitors but personal progress.

Traditions

After New Year, the Toka Ebisu Festival is another of the great Japanese tradition. For five days in January, thousands of people crowd a small Shinto shrine in Gion, to pray to Ebisu, the god of good fortune and prosperity. Toka means "the tenth day" and although the festival focuses on celebrating January 10, it lasts for five days, so it runs until January 12.

Festivities

The Shogatsu is the most important festivitie in Japan. During shogatsu, people display outside Kadomatsu houses, which are arrangements made from pine and bamboo branches. Traditionally this was done to welcome the kami (god in Japanese). This date is a period to make plans and new resolutions for next year.

The Kimono is a traditional japanese clothing. It is a long garment so it also covers the lower part of the body. There are different types depending on whether they are used by men, women or children. Both its cut, its color, the type of fabric or the decoration are different depending on the occasion, the time of the year, the gender, the age and even the marital status of the person. And it is only worn on special occasions such as weddings, festivals and other ceremonies.
