GOOD MORNING TO THE SON AND THE SKY❕👋🏼

LUCHA DE SUMO / LITTE SUMO = “SUMO WRESTLING” IN SPANISH 🇲🇽 / FRENCH 🇫🇷

I LOVE YOU 💓

Howl you doing❓

I hope everything is GREAT with you and at home 🥰

Today, for you, I have a post about the Japanese sport called Sumo Wrestling.

The sport dates back over 1500 years ago in ancient Japan and is currently growing in popularity with what has been a recent development in terms of the sport’s history, the inclusion of women competing in Sumo.

The sport involves a competition between two wrestlers inside of a ring made of clay that is covered in sand with a goal of forcing your opponent out of the ring.

Similar to a sport like football, there is a title for the competitor in relation to the sport the way a quarterback is a position on a team, sumo refers to each competitor as a “Rikishi”.

Power, leverage and momentum are critical aspects of the sport and because of this a Rikishi often weighs much more than the average weight for their height with some weighing over a quarter ton (500 pounds!).

There are not many components to a Sumo Wrestling match and it still looks similar to the way it was done for over a thousand years making it very unique for its ancient history and consistency of the experience.

The competitors walk to the ring and the this alone can take longer than the actual wrestling that occurs in an entire match.

The wrestlers perform a ritualistic cleansing act before the match using salt to purify the ring and stomping to symbolically make way for the match to be not disturbed by negative energy.

A third person referred to as a Gyōji oversees the match (referee) and initiates the start of the match, presents match results in addition to motivating the competitors while wrestling.

A Rikishi who has become a Champion becomes referred to a “Yokozuna” and in Japan that title is prestigious. A Yokozuna retains the that title until they retire.

Here is a sample of a Sumo match and you will see why I said it can take longer for the competitors to walk to the ring than a match.

Enjoy.
