Ryoko TAMURA Yawara-Chan

Ryoko Tamura was only sixteen years old when she upset Karen Briggs in the semifinals of the Judo extra-lightweight division at the 1992 Barcelona Olympics. She lost to world champion Cécile Nowak of France in the final, but it was clear that the future belonged to Tamura. Indeed, she went undefeated for the next four years. Only 1.46m tall, Tamura was hugely popular in Japan, where her success had spawned an interest in women’s judo. She was known as “Yawara-chan” because of her resemblance to a popular comic book character. She entered the final of the 1996 Olympics with an 84-match winning streak. Her opponent was a complete unknown: 16-year-old Kye Sun-hi of North Korea, who had never heard of Tamura. Kye startled Tamura by attacking from the start and the double world champion was unable to establish her rhythm. With 22 seconds left, Kye scored with a leg hook and then added an insurance point when Tamura, on her knees, was penalized for “false attack.” Between the 1996 and 2000 Olympics, Tamura again won all of her matches. No Japanese athlete at the Sydney Games bore the weight of her nation’s expectations more than Tamura. “My goal at Sydney?” she said. “At best a gold, at worst a gold.” Tamura survived a near-upset in the semifinals when she was awarded a decision over North Korean Cha Hyon-hyang. As a contest, her final match against Lyubov Bruletova of Russia was an anticlimax, as Tamura used an uchimata (inner thigh throw) to score ippon after only 36 seconds. Tamura was mobbed by photographers and cameramen who broke down the barrier separating the athletes from the media. She was kept up doing live television interviews until 3am, when she was finally able to lock herself into her room at the Olympic Village. Alone at least, she burst into tears and then placed her gold medal on her pillow and fell asleep. At the Athens Olympic Games in 2004, Ryoko Tamura, whose name is now RyokoTani – her husband Yoshitomo Tani is a member of the Japanese baseball team – defended her title won in Sydney in 2000 and won the gold medal in the – 48kg, ahead of French woman Frédérique Jossinet. She thus became the first judoka to retain her Olympic title.

Sun Hui KYE Fearless youth

The extra-lightweight division of women’s judo saw one of the biggest upsets of the 1996 Atlanta Olympics. The overwhelming favorite was Japan’s Ryoko Tamura, who entered the final with an 84-match winning streak. Her opponent was 16-year-old Sun-Hi Kye, who had never competed outside her native country, the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, and who had been given a wildcard entry to the Olympics by the International Judo Federation. Kye had never heard of Ryoko Tamura and had never seen her fight until she watched videos of her before the final. Kye startled Tamura by attacking from the start and the double world champion was unable to establish her rhythm. With 22 seconds left, Kye scored with a leg hook and then added an insurance point when Tamura, on her knees, was penalized for “false attack.” At the 2000 Sydney Games, Kye moved up to the half-lightweight division and earned a bronze medal, while being cheered on by hundreds of Korean fans who, in the spirit of solidarity, sang songs from the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea in her honor. Kye won the world championship in 2001 and successfully defended her world title in 2003. At the Athens Olympic Games in 2004, Sun-Hui Kye won the silver medal in the -57kg, the gold medal going to Germany’s Yvonne Boenisch.

Valentin Tanase,un tanar nascut pentru a fi Judoka!

”VALI TANASE a adunat cam 16-17 medalii pana acum in 3,5 ani de judo. Unii antrenori spun ca e fortat dar cum poti sa-l potolesti cand el ar fi in stare sa stea toata ziua in sala. Cu greu il poti opri sa nu faca 2 antrenamente pe zi (4 pe saptamana fiind minimum), mai ales inaintea concursurilor. Adevarul este ca iubeste sportul acesta si ii place sa invete si sa se perfectioneze, fara sa se planga ca este greu (nu are gratuit centura verde) si isi iubeste Vantrenorii si colegii enorm (mai bine sta cu ei toata ziua decat cu noi, parintii  🙂  .
Sa dea Domnul sa fie cat mai multi ca el in sportul romanesc!” -comentariu preluat de pe forumul de judo Romania,comentariu postat de tatal lui Vali,un mare sprijin pentru acest baiat.

Felicitari si ,asa cum spunea dl. Tanase ,sa dea Domnul sa fie cat mai multi sportivi ca Vali in sportul romanesc!

”VALI TANASE  has gathered about 16-17 medals so far in 3.5 years of judo. Some coaches are  saying he’s forced, but how can someone  stop him  when he would be able to sit all day in the hall.  Hardley  you can  stop him , making two   trainings per day (4 per week is less), especially before competitions. The truth is that he loves this sport and he likes to learn and to improve,   (not for free he has the  green belt) and he loves his  colleagues and his instructores  enormous (better he’s staying  with them all day instead with his parents   🙂  .
Let’s hope  the Lord will give  as many sportivs like Vali  in the Romanian sport!”

”VALI TANASE  ha ganado  16-17 medallas hasta ahora en 3,5 años de judo. Algunos entrenadores dicen que es obligado, pero ¿cómo puedes parar  cuando él sería capaz de sentarse todo el día en la sala.  La verdad es que le encanta el deporte y le gusta aprender y mejorar, sin llorar  que es difícil (no tiene por nada  el cinturón verde).El ama  todos los companieros y  sus entrenadores enorme (mejor permanecer con ellos durante todo el día ,sin sentarse acasa  con los padres  🙂  . ”

Campionatul European Kata, 10 Mai 2008,Malta

Campionatul European Kata

(14.05.2008)

”Sambata 10 mai in Malta, au avut loc Campionatele Europene de Judo Kata editia a IV-a la care Romania a paticipat cu doua cupluri: Surla Iulian / Fleisz Ciprian din Oradea la proba de Nage no Kata si Tanasescu Diana / Grecu Monica din Pitesti la aceasi proba. Cele doua cupluri sunt antrenate de catre d-l Chirila Alexandru din Oradea posesor centura neagra 4 Dan. Echipa Surla / Fleisz a obtinut medalia de aur in timp ce fetele, aflate la prima participare, au ocupat locul noua. Medalia de argint la Nage no Kata masculin a fost adjudecata de echipa Spaniei, in timp ce bronz a obtinut Rusia. Surla / Fleisz au mai obtinut o medalie de argint la proba de Ju no Kata la prima editie al C.E de kata de la Londra din 2005.

Proba de kata din judo este o demonstratie de actiuni de lupta prestabilite, unele datand din secolele XVI si XVII, si transmise de maestrii japonezi de jujitsu si mai apoi de judo discipolilor, pentru a conserva diferitele principii din ju jitsu si judo, cum ar fi principiile atacului si ale apararii, principiile supletii sau principiile autoapararii impotriva diferitelor tipuri de atac.

Campionatele Europene, precum si Cupa Mondiala a carei prima editie va avea loc in acest an in Spania, au loc pe 5 probe (kata): Nage no Kata, Katame no Kata, Ju no Kata, Kime no Kata si Kodokan Koshinjutsu. Kata din judo este practicata in toata lumea ca proba in examenele pentru obtinerea gradelor DAN. Forma sportiva a kata-ului este inca un prilej de a practica acest sistem japonez de lupta tradus prin ” Calea supletii” .

Decizia IJF si EJU de reintoarcere la kata este de fapt visul fondatorului judo-ului prof. Jigaro Kano (1860 -1938), care intentiona sa transforme temutul ju jitsu intr-o metoda de educatie fizica si moarala a tinerilor din intreaga lume.

La editia din Malta a CE au participat sportivi din 17 tari, la proba de Nage no Kata participand 24 de cupluri.

Marile puteri din judo kata, sunt Italia, Spania, Germania si Rusia. Din cauza complexitatii aceastei probe deocamdata aceasta are caracter excusivist, forte multe tari neavand nici macar nivel de a “participa” la o astfel de competitie.

Arbitrajul din kata este asemanator cu arbitrajele din gimnastica, patinaj artistic si kata din karate.”
