Wikipedia
is a Japanese term which literally means "place of the way". Initially, dōjōs were adjunct to temples.
In the Western World, the term dōjō primarily refers to a training place specifically for Japanese martial arts such as aikido, judo, karate, or samurai; in Japan, any physical training facility, including professional wrestling schools, may be called dōjō because of its close martial arts roots. The term can also refer to a formal training place for any of the Japanese arts ending in "do", meaning "way".
Dojo can refer to:
-
Dojo, training hall
- Dojo kun, rules of the hall
- Dojahng, Korean hall
The dojo is a hybrid instrument designed as a cross between the Dobro-style guitar and the banjo.1 The body and resonator are like the Dobro, while it is strung like a five-string banjo. The tunings and fingerings are also just like a banjo. The intention in creating the dojo was to give banjoists the opportunity to get a completely different sound without having to learn fingerings for an entirely new instrument.2 Dojos have a much more mellow sound than a banjo, and plucked notes are sustained longer due to the resonator.3
