  “1922 gründete der Rahn-Schüler Alfred Rohde dann den 1. Deutschen Judo-Club in Frankfurt.”

  “The first German judo club was formed in 1922 in Frankfurt by Alfred Rhode, a former student of Erich Rahn. For several years, jiu-jitsu and judo coexisted relatively collegially in Germany, most likely because the still relatively small community of instructors and active participants made cooperation necessary if either discipline was to survive”
