[@gilesembleton5037]

I studied classical ju-jitsu in Cape Town SA. My Instructor used the judo to teach us the basic technique and then would teach us the ju-jitsu or street version of the throw. So for example for katagurma the ju-jitsu version was to throw uke forwards in the direction one was facing but at the same time dropping to one knee so one could effectively break ukes back across the knee. Obviously this had to be practiced very carefully throwing uke carefully in front of the knee for practice. My instructor always said that judo was the competition version of ju-jitsu where one could practice randori at full force while the original ju-jitsu techniques that the judo came from had a far more dangerous element and thus had to be practiced under more controlled conditions. As a further example in ostogari the older ju-jitsu version used an armlock to break ukes balance and then the reap.

One of my other uncles who trained with him when he was young told me he would teach ankle locks, knee locks, knee bars, and various other leg locks. He would also teach many different types of chokes and he would also teach atemi waza. I heard a story that he once got challenged by a Karate fighter and when he could no longer avoid the karate fighter, he fought him. My late uncle beat the karate fighter when he caught a front kick (mae geri), then swept the karate fight so hard he fell and hit his head on the tatami mat and was KO’d.

Same as this video, the "throw" was actually almost like a finish where more often joints were broken or dislocated initially. Any throw that involves grabbing the neck of the opponent actually starts with a very sharp slap on the neck to disorient the opponent before actually wrapping the arm around the neck to initiate the throw, etc. There were a lot of strikes that made it look almost like a Shotokan Karate mixed with Judo.

The Judo I know was learned in the early '90s and taught as real-world combat. After Seonagi, for example, you retain the arm and then deliver kicks to the ribs, shoulder, and / or head before dropping into an arm bar if still needed. I say dropping into it because there's no option for tapping, your arm is broken and likely a rib or two from the kicks. Very much a different perspective to sporting arts. Which is also why people who train like this generally don't walk around looking for fights. Rather, we seek to avoid them.

(unlike today where wrestling, bjj, and boxing are the staple foundations). But understandably at least with respect to surfaces and wrist locks, there are safety measures in place to minimise injuries. Gloveless fighting is as I understand it more bloody, but of less risk regarding brain injury, but because of the bloodiness and it's image of brutality, it will likely not become mainstream any time soon. Wrist locks and small joint manipulation just leads to too many injuries in a competitive setting unfortunately it would seem., especially small joint manipulation like the fingers.

Another great video! Yes, all the old Jujutsu techniques had one purpose :To kill or to incapacitate. They cannot be tested in randori. I think (if I remember correctly) that Kano was planning to incorporate Atemi in randori, but at the end, he didn't make it happen. Atemi in Jujutsu, as Chadi has already mentioned, has nothing to do with boxing/kick boxing striking. It's purpose is to hit vulnerable points of human body either to make real damage or to create kuzushi. Thank you.

My Judo instructor told me a arm lock is just making the arm go the way it isn't meant to.

[@jjs3890]

Another great video. Yes, jujitsu was a combat art (life and death conflict). Samurai goal (in h2h combat) was to kill or severely injure the poop meant to kill them. Striking was the shed both before grappling (to make joint locks and throws easier). Modern versions of striking AFTER the throw are in but to simulate the finish with a tanto or wakizashi. Jujitsu striking generally is taken from koppojutsu, daken tai jutsu and Kenpo. Judo is the transitioned jujitsu that you can train daily for sport. Again, samurai sparing allowed for severe injuries and deaths and they happened frequently. Judo made jujitsu safe and perhaps more adequate for modern times. BOTH overlap in self defense purposes.

Thank you Chadi. Excellent concise overview of those changes which led to sport Judo. Either throw, then strike. Or strike and then throw. Situations always guide our response. Any episode you produce that leans a little towards self-defense is greatly appreciated. Have you made a video about entering? Past the attack to the throw? (If you, or any of your viewers, have old mats they would like to donate. Please be so kind as to contact me. It is difficult to practice throws without them.) Peace.

[@Chadi]

Thank you

[@markhoeflinger1040]

thank you i enjoyed your video, what i rememeber from judo is, the person doing the throw, controls the throw, to keep the person safe when he hits the ground in sport judo.........street fight is different in that any throw can become a deveistating introduction to the hard ground , and a bone braking, experience for the intruder......controlled by the person throwing....

[@lunam7249]

Fatal event!!

[@gushlergushler]

The old seoi nage can also be trained with a bend elbow reducing the risk and making it a trainable throw. Falling is still dangerous if your partner doesn't know what is coming but I used to train that throw a lot when my training partners were good enough to take the fall. With the rotated elbow however I would agree with your assessment. I love your assessment of these things, it is great to see wide views on any topic, martial arts specifically.

[@abcdef-kx2qt]

use a throw dummy wearing judo jacket = its always ready !!!

[@Hapkido82AUS]

That first throw with the elbow facing up is common in hapkido. A slightly different version places their arm pit on your shoulder(their elbow is on your chest by this stage), which is a little kinder...

[@johnfranchina84]

In the jujutsu school I train in, we have joint lock throws - both bent and straight arm - from any of the standard or “forbidden” throws. Of course the tori must take care of uki and relax the joint lock and throw the uki is a safe manner. These techniques are limited to higher grades who initially learn and demonstrate one or two joint lock throws and the number increases as the grades and skill levels increase. The uki is always a higher grade and is in full knowledge of the joint lock-throw combination and practices with tori slowly initially and tori speeds up only when he/she can demonstrate control and safety for uki. Joint lock throws ultimately were/are a key foundation of jujutsu and should be practiced and not forgotten.

as a over 15 year instructor I would reccomend to stop that....even slight 3 pound force on a joint can permenantly damage it!! 35 yo with Arthritis is no joke,, and painful....I suppose slow motion training by 2 certified black belts would still be dangerous, but important to teach others the theory...

In my old aikido dojo we applied all the techniques shown in the video (very jujutsu-esque maybe). Especially in combination with a *lot* of atemi waza, really hard atemi sometimes. This Ippon seoi nage judo technique was executed (in aikido) as a variant of shiho nage _in particular_ against tanto. We trained really hard, I remember it well because the projection was brutal, full of fright. Nobody couldn't hold onto the gi of nage for safety in such a position and you *really* needed coordination (to receibe) and technique to control your fall.... The good old days, when ukemi was paramount, technique powerful... Before dear aikido turned into the rubbish laughing stock that is now.

I found this very refreshing. I started judo at 9 and after a few years we started doing what is now known as cross training. I was fortunate to have a Judo Sensei who held Nidan ranking in Aiki Jujitsu as well as ( I believe Ikkyu ) in Shotokan Karate. Once a week we did a "self defense" class. MY other Sensei(s) were a Canadian Military and another was a Police Officer. We did an eclectic training using old Shotokan punching kicking as a base along with Goshin/Aiiki wrist and arm drags. I consider myself very luck to have this Much of Judo these days have been sanitized of its true Martial Form in my opinion. I believe if Kano had lived long enough to see the evolution of Judo he would have kept some of the old ( more lethal ) techniques.

I love all the guys who harp about how "full contact" training is the only way. With certain techniques you just can't do full contact... well, you can, but you will very quickly run out of training partners.

[@onerider808]

Naw. After getting sent to the penitentiary for messing up opponents with “full contact”, they will have plenty of opportunities to practice “full contact”, and plenty of “training partners”.

[@gagworks]

hence the banned techniques. The 'too dangerous' ones are small in number and since they can't be trained efficiently they fell away during the evolution. The majority of techniques which are not 'too dangerous' and can be practiced over and over again to a certain level of proficiency are the ones that will be more useful, and can be as deadly and fight ending. Why be bothered about the dirty moves at all? What use is a skill that one cannot practice or get better at?

[@jjs3890]

Full contact is useful but not the “only way”. As an instructor in samurai arts I tried to figure out a way to spar with the techniques. I came to the realization that…you can’t. Not without high risk of severe injury. So I created “Modern Jujitsu”. Mixing my experiences of other arts G rated jujitsu throws (similar to judo) without locks and allowing break falls with muay tai, combat Sambo, Bare knuckle boxing and US Marines h2h. So we can spar h2h, spar weapons and apply samurai sensitivity. The samurai throws and locks just cannot be trained live. But kata and safe sparing is more than enough to find the openings to apply them when desired.

[@lylemcdermott2566]

I don't know about wrist locks outside a controlled environment though, without gis and with minimal opposition people don't let themselves get caught that easily.

[@ByeByeSummer]

Jujutsu was used in ancient times for dueling with Japanese swords. When two Japanese swords clashed, one of them would often be missing, so as a last resort, jujutsu was sometimes used to try to subdue the opponent. It was also used in Tsubagai to disable the opponent's arm or to break the opponent's stance and cut him down.

[@Quach7]

I like the direction Judo was aiming for from the start. "To beat swords into plowshares." - Isiah. Wrestling did that too, Olympic wrestling I mean. Olympic wrestling removes all submission holds. Ironically, "fake" wrestling (WWE) kept all the lethal stuff. Gracie Jujitsu REVERSES the evolution of Jujitsu to Judo, they turned Judo back into Jujitsu. I am not so sure that is a good thing. Any way, in one generation from UFC1 BJJ is turning into Ground Judo. You can't turn a chicken back into a dinosaur, nor should you want to. I think this is why the movie Taken 2 is such a big hit. We don't see that kind of lethality in hand to hand combat. It is almost a historical film! kzbin.info/www/bejne/pp6WY3-Vnt5gnJY

When I was growing up in Long Island there was always this Judo dojo. Then they started teaching Shotokan Karate sometime in the Mid 80's or 87'. I joined the first class they had and it was a very traditional school. By day 1 we were givin' booklets of Japanese and it was really rough. I had made it to Blue belt and the stuff that went on there I don't know if they would or could still run it like that. If you had to goto the bathroom during class you had to do 50 pushup on these pieces of wood on your knuckles and 50 when you can out. I just used to go just to drink from the sink because I'd be so parched. We worked out hard too, especially abs. They had these rope mechanisms that you put your foot in and then pull another rope to stretch your leg up. We really stretched a lot before starting and we got in really good shape. One other thing that was different was sparring. We did not use pads at all. It really allowed you to get control of strikes and kicks and you would pull back just in time to get the point. I really wish I never quit. It was probably one of the biggest mistakes I made in my life. I'm considering picking up training again, but I'm not young anymore and I live in NYC. I think it's something I need at this point in my life but I don't know where to go. They old school is still active but I don't live near it anymore and it moved anyway. One of my original classmates is a Sensei now.
