Judo Star Serves Up a Treat: Olympic Medalist Mika Sugimoto Brings Onigiri and Inspiration to Local Families
Talk Show and Parent-Child Judo Experience Event with Ambassador Itami and Mika Sugimoto
Talk Show and Parent-Child Judo Experience Event
While the excitement of the Paris Olympics is still fresh, we will be inviting Mika Sugimoto, a silver medalist in the over 78 kg judo category at the London Olympics, to her hometown of Itami to hold a talk show and parent-child judo experience event.
We spoke to Sugimoto, who is currently the mother of a one-year-old child, about what she thinks is important when raising a child and what she has learned through judo. In addition, you can experience judo on the tatami mat, where you will get to experience the joy of moving your body and the interactive experience between parents and children.
