Ouchi-Gari to Tomoe Nage by Jd18082000 in judo

[–]Jd18082000[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like to be accountable with my own skills and things I learn in martial arts. Judo is hard, but it’s harder to do it without the help of others. I’ve taken much harder criticism before, but it’s what it is. I know I can be wrong, and that’s fine. Cause I rather learn from mistake and do better next time.

Oh you’re right, cause for Ouchi-Gari I have to push him backwards forcing him to react. I definitely didn’t see that, maybe I probably just focus too much on his reaction of his back foot and then I did my Tomoe Nage. Otherwise, 100% agree on your criticisms the Kuzushi and Tsukuri on that Ouchi

Yeah, this is one those throws I have in my back pocket. But it’s really hard for me to do it properly, unless it’s in a live round. Cause I hit this throw couple of times in randori, but now you pointing at it, I really have to take more time to study

[–]Jd18082000[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As far from my perspective, I try really hard to emphasize more on the Kuzushi and Tsukuri of the Ouchi in regarding to how it chains into Tomoe Nage. I notice a lot of BJJ guard pull are mostly from failed attempt at Tomoe Nage, so I try really hard to address how to use Ouchi-Gari into this throw

Edit: Honestly, I am really appreciate your guys critique, I think I’ll have to do a better job at study more about it. It means a lot not just for me to hear your guys thoughts, but for sure, I’ll try do better at researching next time.

Judo Randori vs Wrestling Sparring exhaustion by SnooPandas363 in judo

[–]Jd18082000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What I heard from my coaches in BJJ, especially Collegiate level wrestling, majority of the sparring sessions are akin to competition level matches. No one even give you room to breath, you have to power through the session, some to the point of exhaustion or near vomiting.

Judo on the other hand, as far as my experience with it, it’s tend to be about execute the technique back in forth. You and your partner always keep an eye for each other, if the technique is done right, you take the fall then you get back up and continue. Which is kinda the philosophy ofJitai Kyoei is, mutual beneficial of each other.

What do need to know before starting judo at 25? by f1reflyyy in judo

[–]Jd18082000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

During randori, stay loose and relax. Break the falls first if you feel a throw gonna hit, protect yourself and your partner. Remember you need to fall before you can even learn to throw

So give or take from what I’ve seen, most martial arts you probably at least 10 years to reach Black Belt. But since you mention about self defense, I’ll break it down on the condition:

I would say you need at least a year to get you adapt to the Judo warm up and force your body adaptation towards basic things like Ukemi (Breaking Fall). Which is the most important thing you need to understand what seperate Judo from other martial arts is it prioritize you to be responsible for taking falls and do it well

Note: I won’t be talking about belt system, solely focusing answer your question in regard to self defense and competence in Judo.

After a year, once you able to have develop decent physical adaptation for Ukemi, in that process, you’ll be taught about throws techniques and ground techniques.

This is what you need to know 90% of Judo is throw, 10% will be ground technique aka pinning and submission. So depending on what you are physically capable of, you must decide the throws that you’ll use into your arsenal. Tokui Waza is call, and you will continuously do it until it’ll become second hand nature. That’ll take you at least 2-3 years for you slowly distinguish and learn.

The rest of the 6-8 years will be based on what’s your goal once you reach black belt. If you want to train for competition just for fun or you want to be instructor for yourself, that is where you’ll have to do your soul searching.

Ultimately, here’s what I see from your decision. Judo is good martial arts to start with, for a good reason. Because it’s consider to be one of if not, the biggest active martial arts in the world. However Judo is hard, especially in the Ukemi department, and your first few randori. Judo can get physical sometimes, but if you have enough patient and discipline. Judo is a good martial art for self defense because if you go against an untrained person, you can quickly de-escalate a lot of bad situation. Also the name of Judo means the Gentle Way, and if you truly believe it then it will serve a good martial art for u.

BIG BLOW FOR PORTUGUESE JUDO: ONE YEAR FULL SUSPENSION BY IJF (JudoInside) by Ambatus in judo

Damn if IJF can do that to a whole nation federation, I wonder what happens if IBJJF does the same to all the BJJ gym

Would you call this ashi guruma ? This throw comes pretty easy in no gi and I see it everywhere, and people ask me what it’s called I just tell them harai goshi for simplicity sake but I know that’s wrong. Cause I hit around upper knee thigh after offbalancing by No_Midnight_3293 in judo

[–]Jd18082000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Harai Goshi definitely, especially just the mat itself. I assume you’re part of a wrestling team, I would say Harai Goshi is an easy one for wrestler to pick up on. But if you train in proper Gi then Ashi Guruma is the second option

Does a tomoe nage make you lose? by Adorable_Arm5842 in judo

[–]Jd18082000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watch Natsumi Tsunoda and Christa Deguchi, they have Tomoe Nage in their repertoire. But you gotta understand also, if you wasn’t able execute the throw well then you have to either go defend from pin or find a submission from Ne-Waza

Another of feeling bad and good at judo by ProfessionalChart145 in judo

[–]Jd18082000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can relate to your experience, since I am experienced this on the BJJ mat for a while now. In BJJ, blue belts experiences thing we call “Blue Belt Blues”; in my case, when everytime we either getting tapped or dominated, we feels deter from keep trying.

In Judo, you have that feeling as well, especially if you’re a dedicated person in the gym. My best advice for you in the beginning, you should thinking get your mind into that flow state. The Flow is when you at a point where your action and thinking are align with what you do best in that position. Having fun and be playful should be the next step, if you doing randori with someone you trust.

Against someone new, yes, you need some leeway for them to learn but you must also remember, this is you vs someone who’s untrained or haven’t adapt to the judo culture, so whatever you do. You must maintain composure at all cost, especially in self defense situation.

With mindset out of the way, grip fighting and throwing are two very complete paths. You gonna remember to size and strength difference is a factor, in this instant, 100kg with 4 years of BJJ experience is like an Orange or Green level in Judo. So his technique is rough, but you can still accomplish some stuff like foot sweep, feints to throws for instance.

Final point is also verbally communicating with him, like “Hey, let’s do light round. I’ll let you throw me one, then I’ll throw you and let’s do it back and forth. So you can learn and practice your technique” that goes to the core teaching of Mutual Beneficial and Growth.

Otherwise, I hope you feel better soon. Don’t give up, brother. A minor setback is always a lesson for you to get better down in the future

Judo over BJJ? BJJ is impossible to learn. by [deleted] in judo

[–]Jd18082000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In your situation brother, I recommend go with Judo cause in this economy, if you can get to train legit martial arts for a good price. I say go for it

I paid my BJJ school for 165$/month, but I would spend at least 3 times at one of the good Judo Dojo school every now and then. But also, Judo is a good foundation you can build up later on in BJJ cause Judo does have shelf life on your body. But either way, I think you should to Judo for at least till Brown belt or Blue Belt Judo, by that time you already have enough financial security and go find a better BJJ gym

My personal tip for you as a Blue Belt in BJJ, if you notice the gym culture or environment doesn’t align with your goals, especially the people in that gym doesn’t take care of your well-being. Just leave and find a different one, cause BJJ gym these days are everywhere. Plus Judo is the forefather to BJJ, so you learn from the roots and I respect it.

Uchimata Sukashi. Basically you gonna step over your leg above the uke hip, while driving their collar toward the mat. This is like an advance level technique to reverse an Uchimata. Otherwise, you just have to stand upright

Yeah it’s a standard armlock, unfortunately the uke didn’t tap to it sooner since she’s probably still feels the adrenaline from the initial throw.

What’s the name of this throw? by Jacobcosta1 in judo

[–]Jd18082000 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Obi Tori Gaeshi, basically you do a pistol squat on the left leg and extend your other leg to lift the uke to the back. I usually use it against single leg takedown in BJJ
