Mifune's book, "The Canon of Judo" is still ahead of it's time.

I really appreciate the notes and warnings about how to play these strategies safely. It's very easy to get overly excited and forget considering safety first. There was a Jesse Enkamp video about sparring and top martial arts competitors, as well as Shintaro Higashi often talking about proper sparring. The fact that someone is not trying to rip your head off doesn't mean it's not good and effective sparring worth paying attention to. In fact if it looks relaxed you're probably doing it right. I like that multiple judo youtubers and martial artists are voicing it out lately. It needs to be heard. Everyone has practiced with someone who hasn't understood what randori is about and will try to win and rip your head off. Nobody likes practicing like that. It just means they're panicking and not thinking about improving. That they're not comfortable in playing from losing or even position. If most of the young testosterone filled, undeveloped brain men figured out the intensity thing and practicing effectively, the amount of unnecessary training injuries would go down and their seriousness would also drop. Leading to more of those fully effective training hours and greater longevity. Probably allows you to hit the gym harder alongside judo as well, allowing you to improve your judo and physicality more effectively. Sure you need to sometimes play at high intensity but most of the time not.

I'm glad you're back

[@Cars_of_yesteryear]

Totally agree, some guys do randori like its a matter of life or death, if all your energy and attention is spent muscling your opponent youll never understand the mechanics of the techniques and most importantly the mechanics of KUZUSHI

I just had this exact same experience happen in the dojo I'm currently attending. When I first arrived there earlier this year, there were mostly middle aged men who practiced once or twice a week after work. They are all quite fit (they cycle, run, swim), but they do know the limits of their bodies. Sparring with them was always a game of chess with brief explosions of action, and I was learning a lot. A few months back, a team from an university in town need a new place to practice and started going 3 times a week to the dojo. All 19, 20-somethings way too eager even months before they have any competitions. They all mean well and renewed the energy at the dojo, but damn, I'm at high alert at all times to avoid injury, and it's exhausting 😅

His book, canon of judo, is still cutting edge

[@pohkimcheng59]

Actually, I saw the book the other day. I was wondering what it was about because the book was wrapped up, and I didn't want to bother the worker. Would you mind sharing what the book is about?

Wow. Didn’t know the original Judo had so much ground game. The Gracie’s excellent marketers!

[@Patrick-sheen]

Anyone with any knowledge of martial arts knows Judo has ground game and the Gracie’s never said anything to the contrary.

[@marktripp138]

@@Patrick-sheenall due respect, look closer. They crapped all over judo and still do.

[@Tylerthegrappler]

⁠@@marktripp138maybe a few old men did but go to any Gracie gym. All they do is praise every aspect of grappling. Wrestling and judo are highly revered.

[@marktripp138]

@ you mean old men like every member at the top of the hierarchy? How about when one of them said in a published martial art magazine that Jigoro Kano created judo to be a fake martial art to keep the real secrets of jujitsu from the round eyes? If you need to hear more, just let me know !

[@WolframtheBlessed3499]

Yup, GENIUS marketers. Look up Kosen Judo

[@Patrick-sheen]

This type of sparring is the key to longevity and improvement, another excellent video

[@Chadi]

@@Patrick-sheen thank you

[@Kriegter]

Kyuzo Mifune did deep half guard before BJJ even existed

[@RadicalTrivia]

Excellent video! I watch this Mifune footage at .25 speed all the time, like a ritual. The fundamentals of base and connection that Rickson always talks about are fully on display here. Beautiful. 🥹❤

[@RadicalTrivia]

I also agree with the training method. I tell my classes that their one consistent goal is to be the least tired person at the end of class. The more technical we can be, the more energy we can save.

[@atshabal]

It always a pleasure to watch a foitage of the great Mifune his judo was amazing almost like aikido.

[@johnl2648]

Woah the first one is some kind of very quick deep half backdoor thing when the top guy is on the verge of mount

[@andrewd6438]

Going to try some of this in class tonight

[@henrikg1388]

Mifune simply had an uncanny body control/balance.

[@JoriMikke78]

Nice throw, but if you end up on bottom of side control, then what is the point?

[@Chadi]

@@JoriMikke78 in bjj yes, but in judo after the ippon you just let go and relax.

[@veteransowhat5669]

It is a respect issue he is a old man, it is good for him to get on the matt and train.....Come on man
