Great interview, you guys covered a lot of ground. One of Kudos' predecessors was Nippon Kempo 1932, they wore a Karate/ Judo Gi, used head gear with a face cage striking, grappling, throwing and ground submissions. Matt Thornton of early SBG. BJJ/NHB/MMA fame, speaks in great length about the (i) method, introduce techniques, isolate the technique into a two person drill, and integrate the technique into live sparring, I often teach a fourth (i) which is imagine or visualize. Kata is after all visualizing as well as practicing form. Similarly, shadow boxing can also be practicing what happens when you miss. Train hard, train safe!

Am i wrong or was this a white belt against a brown belt?

This is kosoto gake.

I wish there was a Kudo dojo closer to me :( The nearest one is 9 hours away one way :(

I want to try and learn kudo but they're nowhere in the Davao region of the Philippines...

Can you get brain damage or is the helment stop all brain damage?

Nice video thanks!

man i really wish there is kudo here in the philippines

Looks very effective. I’d never came across Kudo before.

So I'm curious, what intensity are the students at during the sparring, hard or like a medium?

In my opinion, they are different sides of the same medal. Since they hard to find just go with the gym closer to u. If u have both just choose what u like more. I think kudo is a lil bit better on striking and combat sambo a lil bit better on the ground.

You're popping the left shoulder right?

Osu!

Kudo and combat sambo are the best

He reminds me of Loyld Sweeney aanother good combat Sambo fighter

We need a Kudo Organization in Germany as well🎉 I‘d love to train Kudo 😢

Nice

It seems really difficult to find this headgear.

On one hand it's a safer mma. But i think the safest is sambo. The helmet gives a very unrealistic safety feeling, leading to reckless exchanges. Which r unrealistic since when u have the threat of being punched on your face u ain't gonna do that. But sambo, still got points, open tatami, no unrealistic wild exchanges. I love both though almost equally

Nice timing

Congrats

Yo AJ its jay w

Kudo is amazing, I hope to practice it in the future, just one question, although the helmet protects against more serious damage, it doesn't prevent the opponent from being knocked out, right?

Kudo should be Kyokushin + GJJ/ Kosen Judo, looks about right to me!

Kajukenbo has been doing karate and judo since 1947

I'm a karate practitioner and been considering Kudo. That yellow belt girl sold me on it!

Wowzers

Awesome

It appears that Alex is a reasonably high level judo man. His throws and sweeps are quality.

In taich it's called periet,standup can move to punch but used to get behind and turn it into a renaked choke as well depends on your skill .just saying.🎉🎉❤😊

I'm in the background 😂

What is the name of this technique

Oh no not another grand master gone...😢

Thanks Sir

Any clubs near Plymouth? Thanks

This works pretty good on BJJ lower belts. It's not a super common submission in BJJ.

From what I've seen on this channel, Kudo appears to be one of the most complete traditional martial arts.

❤

The only way I could do that was if you wanted me too I could come and pick it

I love it !

Wow, I've never seen that one before 👏🏽👏🏽

Very realistic 💪🏾

Saludos hay algún sitio donde se pueda conseguir el programa completo de kudo por grados como guía pues es obvio que se necesita la guía de un sensei pero que haya una guía para Progresar en libros o vídeos Gracias

🤣🤣🤣 Thanks @kudouk . A pleasure be there another time with all of you. Only one thing, O Soto Guruma is the right name of the throw 😉 OSU!!

Thank you for a great time🙏🏼OSU!

Britons training Combat Sambo?

Combat Sambo is another niche in the UK, similar to Kudo but with more focus on the takedowns. Would imagine the cross over between CS and Kudo would be very similar

would the head butting damage the kudo front screen, or scratch it? thanks

I really wish we have Kudo in the Philippines

Please open a branch in the USA.
