The author drew the following conclusions: the reasons why Judo can become a sports form with both modern and traditional colors are, on the one hand, that theoretically and ideologically it inherited and developed traditional Judo culture that bases on Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism as the foundation, and on the other hand, that it creatively re-explained the body movement state composition of “noumenon” and “inner strength” in Judo by applying west-ern scientific principles; Judo can be considered as a sort of new “body” culture created via competition, friction and fusion in the impacting between Japanese intrinsic culture and foreign culture. By taking Judo for example, the au-thor reexamined the phenomenon of national culture turning into world culture, hoping to provide reference for the scientization and globalization of similar traditional national sports.
