Budo is a generic term encompassing all of the Japanese “do” (way) arts. First positively identified about the mid-18th century. Budo subscribes to creating the ideal psychological state by removing the fear of death and excessive self-consciousness so its user can freely and completely make use of the acquired physical techniques.
