There were dozens of fights between the children in the Ippon Social Project competition in Baixa Verde<\/figcaption>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Opportunity, struggles, social inclusion, fans and joy on the mat<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

More than 100 athletes participated in the Ippon Social Project tournament, developed by the NGO Ajud\u00f4u, in Baixa Verde, Dion\u00edsio district<\/strong>, Minas Gerais<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The afternoon of March 11 (Wednesday) was quite unusual in the small Baixa Verde district of Dionisio. With about 2,500 inhabitants, more than 10% were gathered on the court of the Dona Jacy Francisca Garcia State School to watch the first judo competition in the community’s history. With each blow applied, the shouts of celebration echoed. The crowd did well and the athletes on the mat too. It looked like a grand Olympic final\u2026 But no, it was the social inclusion and joy brought by the \u201cpath of softness\u201d (the meaning of the name judo in Japanese).

In addition to the host city, children and young people from S\u00e3o Jos\u00e9 do Goiabal participated in the competition organized by Ajud\u00f4u. The event is part of the Ippon Social project, which offers free judo classes to 300 children and young people, aged between 4 and 17, in both cities. The initiative is sponsored by ArcelorMittal, through the ArcelorMittal Foundation, made possible by the State Sports Incentive Law and support from Municipal Governments.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Judo Social Project transforming lives<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Ajud\u00f4u has been operating in these cities for 6 years, always with social judo projects. For M\u00e1rcio Andrade, Judo Master and Coordinator of the Ippon Social Project, this sport has the power to transcend practitioners. \u201cThe teachings impact families and even the community. Our teachings work both the physical part of the child and the mental part, teaching them to respect opponents, obey the coach, know how to control the body and keep calm\u201d, he emphasizes.

With two weekly training sessions each center, young people in the region now have an option of quality sports offered free of charge. \u201cAs our community is very needy, if it weren’t for the Project, I would never have a judo class here. Students became more disciplined and focused. That’s why parents also love Ippon Social\u201d, says Rog\u00e9ria Couto, resident of Baixa Verde and Director of E. E. Dona Jacy Francisca Garcia.

In addition to physical activity, which promotes considerable improvements in motor coordination, balance, physical conditioning, spatial and body awareness. As a disciplinary activity, fighting develops sociability with other children, teamwork, respect for the teacher and friends, and much more. \u201cJudo is the only sport and leisure option we have in Baixa Verde. My son’s participation in classes has been great, because he lives with other children, he becomes stronger and more disciplined\u201d, declares, with a grateful smile, Fl\u00e1via Godoi, mother of 9-year-old judoka Murilo Godoi.

Today, it is common to see children in kimono on the streets of Dion\u00edsio, Baixa Verde and S\u00e3o Jos\u00e9 do Goiabal, following the tradition of Japanese martial art. However, judo does not arrive in these locations by chance. It is the result of a partnership between public authorities, the private sector and the third sector, \u201cWe believe that the union of all sectors of society is the best way to a better and fairer world. Only in this way will we directly improve communities and transform people’s lives\u201d, highlights Magna Valadares, Social Investment and Institutional Relations Analyst at ArcelorMittal.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
