Talking Judo with Ken Fukushima
Ken Fukushima is a judoka, artist, and architect from Toronto, Ontario, Canada. In this episode, we cover a range of topics, from the centennial of Judo in Canada and its impact on the community to Ken's training at the Kodokan in Japan.
Ken shares insights from his three decades of coaching, discussing the traits that connect judokas and how Judo has shaped his personal philosophy. We also look ahead to the Judo World Championships and the Paris 2024 Olympics to get Ken's opinion on what's coming up.
This conversation could have lasted hours—there's so much more to explore, not just about Judo but also about creativity and architecture. I enjoyed listening to Ken share his Judo story and journey, and I highly recommend that you check out his other interview to hear more about his experiences. You can find the link at the bottom of the description.
