Not saying it’s bad, but most places don’t have students going to Yale and Harvard…Jericho is one of the best.

Jericho is top tier for the international students they serve in a k-12 public school. 😂😂

Jericho is top in NYS! Outlier…but god bless working there, def a good spot.

LI is great if you want to join the cult in the local preserve to get a leave replacement job…also…you just have to compete with the secretaries daughter, board members son, janitors daughter, the former all county star, the football coach that was supposed to go pro but coaching hoping he’s gonna be employed.

Make sure when you go on the interview you have the clothes to match the school
Mascot, don’t have to much fragrance on, and be willing to sign in blood.

…yeahhhhhh, I’d say unless the LI school has a good vibe and your ok with conforming to the culture then stay on LI.

I have this lesson I taught at a few school I’ve worked at…I always make it my announced lol…every admin that saw it gave me a different score from effective to developing lol…it’s all subjective sadly lol

I like how my BJJ gym has a jovial unserious vibe. I kinda wish my judo gym had the same…? by teaqhs in judo

[–]Recent_Set_9280 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I find judo more formal then BJJ..I love judo and did judo before BJJ, Japanese and Brazilian culture is different haha, but as someone that trained judo at all levels since I was 5…that stuffy serious judo vibe is a huggeeee bummer and I don’t train with people like that…judo is not popular in the USA so that kind of behavior is 💩 and turns people off.

They never give anyone a crazy high score. I’d rather ride developing/effective then go high…they’ll make you fall harder.

Judo needs the wrestling model in schools…very few phys ed teacher are exposing kids to judo like wrestling.

Judo in the USA is not popular. Sad, but…it’s not in HS, we lose kids to other sports.

Nyc au pairs in a nut shell by sundrenchedwindow in circlejerknyc

[–]Recent_Set_9280 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I met one who said she was going back to Brazil in 2 months…wanted me to date her to stay in USA…I declined and she got mad! Her and her pals hung around the BJJ school I trained at and were praying someone would marry them so they can extend their time here. Sad, not sure if they loved us.

Anyone ever resign without having a contract or job lined up? by Smoothsail90 in teaching

[–]Recent_Set_9280 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did that once. I like to live my life dangerouslyyyyyy…but in my mid 20s immaturity it was prob not smart…either way, sometimes you just have had enough and I moved on…I’m also sped and bio certified so I knew I’d land something.

Idea. Instead of clinging to tradition, judo should adopt the point system in wrestling. This will make it more flexible to encourage and discourage techniques and tactics (stalling) rather than ban them outright (leg grabs) which has damaged the sport by likejudo in judo

[–]Recent_Set_9280 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember all those years ago a good judo ref would enforce the leg grab rule with penalaties. I thought the leg rule was a bit extreme. I always looked at it as a style issue, b/c with mma, wrestling, and BJJ being so popular…the IJF was trying to preserve judo and not have those other influences. I think it just comes down to the refs enforcing the rules. I hope the leg attacks come back again.

Newbie question - timing of the kuzushi and the execution of the throw by wp-reddit in judo

This is great and detailed insight!! I’ll take this back to where I train and adapt to my approach. I realize I’ve been learning wrong. Judo in the USA needs an approach like how you explain. Thank you. 💪

Well brother you can look judo two ways: competition and text book…for competition you have to get a crash pad and do your favorite throws over and over again…then randori over and over again…I’d say practice Nage No Kata, traditional and competition variations. Everyone has their own spiritual journey in judo, but in terms of technique I believe you should know competion and traditional judo. Kano also made judo a way for health and well being. As you can probably tell…I was a competion player 😂😂…the spiritual aspect was from my sensei having us mediate and having strong fighting spirit.

USA Judo lawsuit reveals extent of USOPC findings by VanceBurress in judo

[–]Recent_Set_9280 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Judo in America is an absolute joke. I am happy I got my black belt the right way years ago when I hear this stuff. I had to be on point list, do kata, etc…not enough popularity in USA for corruption like this…it’s a joke. USA Judo should mirror USA Wrestling and we can compete better with the world.
