Judo for BJJ - Foot Sweeps - Sasae & Hiza

Be sure to comment, and let me know what some of your favorite topics are or what you would like to see in future videos on my channel!
On a recent trip to Da Firma Training Center in Chesapeake, VA, I got to spend a little time with some good friends, including Judo and BJJ Black Belt, Kenton Givens. I asked him if he could show some details over a couple of my favorite foot sweeps in Judo, Sasae Tsurikomi Ashi & Hiza Garuma, as well as their usefulness for BJJ context particularly. I hope you like this and get some good details out of it.

Judo + Wrestling + BJJ = god mode

[@JG-qi7kp]

Kenton is an awesome instructor and all-around great guy! He's also contributed a great deal to the freestyle-judo community. Love the "train track" analogy too👌

[@Kaelan66]

Glad you addressed the set up since I've had trouble getting people upright enough in BJJ to apply judo techniques

[@adamwood87]

i watched this, tried it later that night, it worked. that's the sign of a good video.

[@ninpolife7749]

Even though I hit a foot sweep on a lighter white belt, I was stoked so fun.

[@jamiemayers9278]

Excellent breakdown. I love the train track analogy, that’ll really help to cement it in my mind.

[@jonathanmay2011]

I always wanted to see a foot sweep video because you don’t have to commit as much as shooting a takedown. Thanks so much 🙏🙃

[@stefanwolf8558]

Same. I was a big fan of shoots when I was younger but now that I'm in the master's division, I'm transitioning to foot sweeps

[@josemartin1727]

I remember when I was a white belt at age 28 I could shoot in for takedowns for days. Now that I'm a 39 year old brown belt I just usually go for inside leg trips or easy foot sweeps since shooting in gets me gassed out quickly now. 😂

[@alexmaclin1194]

Great tips and techniques here. The explanation really helped understand concept wise what to do and I like the off the train tracks cue. And that sequence to get grips and get them more postured for the sweep was super helpful.

[@Spotlightadrian1]

That’s my Judo instructor!!!

[@greendragonmartialarts9194]

That's funny that in mid air you thought "that's a pretty throw." I say this because I do it all the time. I'll be in mid air and I'll even say out loud "Nice" then boom I land. Great vid as always. Thank you

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Haha, it is a funny thing to happen, but you gotta recognize when it was a great technique, even when you’re on the receiving end.

[@greendragonmartialarts9194]

@@KnightJiuJitsu Yep!

[@metrolinamartialarts]

Sasae seems like such a cool move when you land it correctly

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

The timing is everything. But that’s pretty much with everything I guess. Ha

[@victorherreraguzman5014]

Since I learned Sasae, it was my favorite and a non-stop at the gym

[@zacharywong483]

Really great video here, Eli! Kenton has such good info! That strategy at 2:24 was so good!

[@theredwolfproject5712]

I’ve actually used this a lot and I’ve even got it in a tournament twice but I didn’t know all the little details. Thanks so much I’m using this in class tonight

[@gw1357]

Appreciate the stand-up content! Great stuff.

[@thebizness5596]

Very well explained. I can use this moving forward for my standup game.

[@callummackenzie5207]

That variation at the end is awesome

[@yosigam]

Loved it I would love to see more of those judo vids

[@devriestown]

Very good man. I train bjj wrestling and judo. Judo is another piece of the puzzle for me . People who say judo is a waste of time are wrong. It's about making it work for you. Train to become a complete grappler. Osss 🤙🤼‍♂️🤙

[@JamesThompson-ws3kw]

Started my journey a little over a month ago, and one of my professors was showing me some old photos and said "this is eli knight maybe you have seen him on youtube." and i was like yes! so needless to say my professor has trained with you many years ago and he then took a break and recently received his black belt finally. His name is David G. Thank you for these awesome videos!

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

If it’s the David G I think you’re talking about, he’s a great human and good friend over the years. Definitely a great person for you to be training with!

[@JamesThompson-ws3kw]

@@KnightJiuJitsu you are absolutely right about that! If you are ever in the area contact him and come by and see us, I'm sure he would really enjoy that!

[@IntegratedMMAHQ]

Great video thank you for sharing

[@matthewcrawford4216]

Love the judo content.

[@MUSAVISUALMEDIA]

Sick.

[@MrMattias87]

Same movement in muay thai clinching

[@jtballnuts]

Swear I’ve got a cracked rib right now from other nights rolls, was swept hard

[@tarkak7800]

👍çok iyi.

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Teşekkürler

[@jedmcdonald4695]

I think hacky sack is one of the best games for martial arts. Foot placement and balance seem huge in judo to get precise.

[@adilbekramadan2038]

🖒👍👌🖒super

[@twinsunpredator7998]

please Judo no gi not much content on you tube reunifie judo and bjj

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

I have a no gi judo video on my channel that’s been pretty popular and more of that to come!

[@100kiloscsa2]

Well Eli how about we do more because I’ve got some stuff!

[@Infinite_warden]

My feet can feel the floor

[@100kiloscsa2]

🤙🏽

[@eliotquintana9802]

Freestyle judo foot sweep opponent off balance

[@LeonardoSparta]

I use It going to the ground.

[@DerineShorts]

Hiza - Guruma

[@echols2010]

I love my bjj gym focuses a lot on stand-up and Judo but every time I go to open gym to roll everyone just pulls guard, any advice?

[@ajmjl9102]

Are you a Royce black belt? (Asking bc the blue bar)

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Yes. 3rd degree under Royce Gracie.

[@vyndaio]

Awesome video Professor! I'll be trying these out during open mat this weekend. *rubs hands together with an evil smile*

[@bossman674]

There’s something horrible about when you get grabbed by someone who does judo, or wrestles… they feel like a wall, and you kinda know you gotta try extra hard to not go flying…

[@user-ib9vv6zx9q]

フットスイープには、 払い 刈り の二つがあるけど、フットスイープだけだとこの微妙な違いが分かりにくいため、 日本人は必ず欧米人に比べて優位に立てるんよな

[@edwardkaeser2533]

Using juijitsu for jujitsu 😅

[@markdaniels4178]

Learn judo first

[@ferasboulala6220]

This is a trip, not a foot sweep.

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

They’re referred to as sweeps in judo.

[@djignatin4043]

I train Judo and BJJ.
