Promoting Health and Wellness through the 2nd Philippine World Judo Day Championships

The 28th of October every year is celebrated as World Judo Day to honor Judo as a martial art and its rich history; and to commemorate the birthday of Judo founder, educator and visionary, Dr. Jigoro Kano.

To illustrate the values of Judo, the International Judo Federation (IJF) chooses a theme which is designed to be used as a strong tool to develop the visibility of the sport within and outside of
the Judo family. The theme for 2024 is “WELLBEING”.

The Philippine World Judo Day Championships is on its second year since its national debut in 2023. Spearheaded by the National Sports Association, Philippine Judo Federation, in this year’s
edition, the 2nd Philippine World Judo Day Championships is co-hosted by Central Judo Club and
University of the East Judo Team. This event will run on October 26, 2024 at the Tutuban Mall Basketball Court, Tondo, Manila.

Health and wellness are essential aspects of our lives that contribute to our happiness, satisfaction and the quality of our daily living. It encompasses an individual’s physical, mental, emotional, and social satisfaction to create meaningful relationships and connections. With proper care for oneself, an individual can thrive and lead a fulfilling life.
