Massive Judo Throws from Common Street Fight Positions

[@valeyard00]

I'm sorry, I laughed so hard when you slammed him with that Utsuri on the ground, right besides the crash pad 🤣

[@Orlando-wn4uc]

I was like... daaaaaaamn...

A KZbin trifecta: concise, useful, and funny!

[@saltbjorn2223]

That vibe reminds me of my old judo classes and sensei very similar humor...makes me happy in a nostalgic way

[@JohnRhodes-lv3rg]

I’m 240 lbs and a wrestler. When you get owned by a 175lb judoka, you pay attention.

[@nicholasneyhart396]

I decided to pick up judo at my coaches recommendation, he used judo to almost make it to the Olympics for greco roman.

[@RAPEDBYBLACKS]

Judo sucks compared to wrestling

[@simpinainteasy680]

I think different stimuli can be very beneficial

[@thomasprislacjr.4063]

260 lb brawler, such a thing has yet to happen to me. It is cute when they try to do takedowns. But I'm far more worried about them knocking my knees in the wrong direction😊

[@nicholasneyhart396]

@thomasprislacjr.4063 I thought the same coming from a boxing background but got into a fight with my friend, who is a great wrestler and got slammed so hard I was gasping for air, I listened to him and learned to wrestle as well. It is absolutely an essential skill in being able to fight.

[@jamesoneill8901]

Love seeing Judo for self defense 🎉

[@JohnLocke1776]

Same here. Martial Arts are meant for self defense

[@KingOfSwords720]

This maybe your most "real situation" useful vid yet. Kudos

[@randallharter]

Great ways to end street fights. Average person has no clue about distributing weight, feet position or even basic leverage. Better to have the information and not need it, than to need it and not have it. Thank you!

[@HanzoTookTheWrongShuriken]

The headlock is indeed very common to see and receive! It might be every big brothers favorite. It's very compromising... often you can't do anything. Thank you for sharing this.

[@andreinedelcu5330]

"you missed the mat" had me spill my coffee. Thank you sensei

A dad from the Netherlands that got a blue belt 25yrs ago and now has 2 kids doing Judo. Anything to refresh my memory to help teach my kids. I find his way of teaching very practical and clear.

[@a.g.3372]

Keep doing more of these kind of videos that are directly applied to street self defense. Please also include no-gi judo for street self defence. Also, it would be great if your father could teach some techniques with you given that he has diverse expertise in several martial arts. The applied synthesis would be very helpful. Thanks!

[@Anonymous_Whisper]

That story of young sensi lol 8 year old. Those are the best times. I remember those days. 😁😁

[@ookami112]

i love your videos Shintaro ! ... Jigoro Kano has thought it all... Judo has it all...Self defence... Competition... Jiujitsu...wrestling...weapons... You dont have to train goshinjutsu just like in the kata... That is the form... you can train it like a competition sparring that UKE has a rubber knife... How many judo technigues can u do when u grab a knife hand by one hand... SODE comes to my mind at first... Just learn it and train... Modern jiujitsu is just a piece of a puzzle of JUDO!!! Judo is much more than just a martial art... Kano was wise man by far !

[@sktruesdale]

Just heard there was a earth quake near you. Making sure you are doing OK. And thanks for the self defense Judo lesson.

[@seanmikhael1767]

2:33 I think he was expecting the blue pad 😄

[@stephenwalsh2634]

Took three-years of judo from a Japanese 6th degree black belt who had just moved to America, and a 2nd degree guy who spent 2yrs in the Army in Japan. I learned later in life how there was a reason I only got to green belt as I had to earn it. In my early 30s I took Kenpo at a school where you paid for your belt and rank came quickly. The judo was great. Plus, I used a stomach throw on two different occasions when heavier guys were rushing me. Both had the wind knocked out of them as I held their arms to make sure they landed on their back.

[@ThelastWales]

Could you show some practical takedowns for Law Enforcement please.

[@ramoddjob]

When youre in the headlock, grab the closer leg and drive forward with your own 2 legs.

[@jeremy4155]

Look up goshin-jitsu. Maybe not spelled right.

[@jeremy4155]

One of my sensei also taught for RCMP. There are some great wrist and joint locks that work great for law enforcement.

Thanks Shintaro

[@NoeCruzjr-pc5jt]

I have to share this fight experience with you guys. I Got into a street fight with a friend from middle school. He was a little taller than me and a lot stronger too. He managed to get me into a head lock. I wasn’t able to lift him nor free my head from his arms. I even tried to step on his feet but like I said I was a little smaller than him so I was In a bad position and out of all the possible options to free myself And this fight was when I was in middle school so it had to be around 1989. And back then we all had long hair. Everyone was around us screaming “punch him!” “hit him!” “beat him up!” And at this point in the fight when I was trapped in the head lock that my friend began asking me loudly for everyone to hear “do you quit? Do you quit?” I didn’t want lose to him, I knew I was a better fighter than him. His size and strength surprised me but I knew I could still beat him if I could get free and I tried everything to free myself. So in my head I was trying to think of something and this was when my mother walked up to us and said “if you let him win I’m going to beat your effing ass when it’s over!” Yes! I was more afraid of my own mother that my bigger and stronger friend. When my mother went back to the side of the street, my friend turned my face to his face while still holding me in a strong head lock and looked me in the eyes and said “do you quit?” All I could see was his hair that was down over his face and that was when I saw my one and only escape from his strong arms! I reached up and grabbed two handfuls of his hair and began pulling his face onto the top of my head while lunging myself up and pulling him down at the same time Bam bam bam bam! Next thing I knew I could hear everyone that was screaming “punch him” “hit him” “beat him” up all started to yell “stop it stop it stop it he’s bleeding he’s bleeding” I thought they meant I was bleeding but I didn’t stop I kept smashing his face with my head He let go and I turned to look at him to continue the fight with my fists and all I saw was red all over his face. It freaked me out And my mother came running up to me and said “that’s how you win a fight!. You never let anyone beat you up! I’m so proud of you!” Yeah. This is a true life story of mine. Me and Edwin still stayed friends. I never got kicked on by the rest of the kids on the street anymore. Even though I knew some of them were yelling for him to beat me up I forgave them for it. (In my head during the fight I was telling myself if I lose I’m going to fight that kid next and then that kid next because they wanted me to lose) But in the end. This was one of the few times I managed to make my own mother say the words “I’m so proud of you”. So it is and will always be a bitter sweet and tragically sad experience for me. But one thing I take away is you never give up Ina fight. A fight consists of using your head to think it through. And when you’re in a bad position do give up hope. Maybe you can Think about winning the fight before the fight. Or maybe think about the pain of losing the fight. What ever you use to motivate yourself, use it. Open your minds eye and you will see an opportunity to change the outcome. And be like me. Use your head. It’s a lot harder than you ever imagine! 😂

[@UltraToasty]

Your Story teared me Up Let me tell you from my experenice maybe you Change your pesperctive . I was hard bullied since primary school and from my Family and neighbourhood . I got a lot into Fights and I got beaten down severral Times. I had enouguh and wanted to learn Karate hence I asked my mother If she can Bring me to Karate club. After the First visit she Said to Me you cant do that . Imagine youre 10 and have Nobody and the only person that listens you from time to time Takes your Last little chunck of confidence . I wanted to die. So after that I attacked every bullie No Matter how tall he was. Because i Just didnt Care anymore. And I got ass kicked very hard. Sometimes I won a fight and my mother and teacher blamed me. Instead of helping me. I mean wtf? I was raised Up to a complelty Borken and quiet kid with heavy social anxiety = pussy. My mother Beat the Shit out of me when I was 5 . I still hate her . Your Mom tried to raise Up you to a men who can defend himself without any Help. She prepared your for the cruel world as parents should. So please reconsider your view . Now I am 28 . I started therapy and mma with 27 . I am slowly fightig my way Back to Life.

[@jeffkaplan7635]

I loved your story man

[@hatzer3780]

Yes! Keep making these!!

[@freshtonnes859]

Im loving these self defence judo lessons. Very cool!

[@ruthau7999]

Thank you Sensei, as the contrast between the white and blue gi makes this so much easier to comprehend.

[@JD2jr.]

I used to love tawara gaeshi when my opponent was tired; you almost hang on their lapel with all your bodyweight until they are hunched over, then you can throw that deep overhook/bear hug and sit under them. I think I hit it in a tournament once, but it was with one of my teammates, so I may just be remembering practice beforehand.

[@thomasprislacjr.4063]

Aaaaaah yes, I see that you know your Judo well!

[@thomasfahey8314]

Thanks for showing the option where you get hit with the double.

[@-timebreakergokublack-3849]

I love his content and learning judo and real moves that will work some of them won’t sometimes but I love his attitude and his personality. I literally subscribed n liked😂I love it man keep up the great work

[@beareggers]

Tawara gaeshi, also useful when your buying 50lb bags of rice at the asian grocery store.

[@vincenzoschiattarella8593]

Lot of good techniques to defend yourself in a street fight, nice and Easy! And don't forget the fact that falling on the ground Is more painful than the tatami!!!

[@BushCampingTools]

"In the street he's going to be pretty messed up" LOl there's now bouncing back from that concrete LOL- yep pretty messed up I'd say. Great video as always.

[@alexandrehuat773]

That tani otoshi at 1:00 is so smooth

[@harkinjames]

Good content, I’ll definitely be trying the double leg takedown throw in my next BJJ class, thanks for sharing 👍

[@yakovdavidovich7943]

Tawara gaeshi works if they are mediocre or worse at a double leg. Notice Shintaro is using it against a bent-over-at-waist double, not a proper level change, good posture, and blast. Of course, most BJJ doubles aren't really all that great, so tawara gaeshi is likely usable in a lot of cases :-).

[@harkinjames]

Good advice, cheers. I think it has better chance to work in BJJ than Judo. I’m not grappling that long and having problems when people shoot in for a double leg, almost rugby tackling me. I’ll try this when people overcommit to the takedown and see how it goes, cheers for the advice again 👍

[@ianmcabee8036]

​@yakovdaitvidovich7943 Kyle Dake did it to Jordan Burroughs. Look up freestyle chest wrap.

[@knw-seeker6836]

Great reminders of Judo learnt in past lots is common sense

[@TassieJake]

Exactly. Thank you Master

[@Twobarpsi]

This is why I want to learn judo.

[@gengotaku]

Cool stuff shintaro, but using “tani-otoshi” on the street it’s too hard for a head lock. I’d prefer using an aikido solution such as “kote-hineri(sankyō).

[@NAviationWario]

Could you make a 'Forbidden Judo Techniques' video?

[@jpdoc5722]

thanks 🙏 sensei 👍

[@bigolbearthejammydodger6527]

well this is a damn sight better than the last video I watched on judo for 'street' - that was downright dangerous!(not your channel obvs) You have the good sense to show that the opponent is 'drunk normal idiot', and to use judo reactively rather than proactively. Still as some one that is both a judo blackbelt and has worked in door staff, security and forces - Knife awareness must be emphasized. just because some one is a drunk idiot that doesn't know how to fight does not mean they don't have a knife. Judo like all grappling leaves you super vulnerable to getting stabbed. The 'your in a headlock' scenario - YES this is the time to use judo in a real fight, and this part of the vid was GREAT! The - getting shoved and chest bumped.. no this is when you make distance, not grapple. Its too damn dangerous IF they have a blade. I respect you as a fellow judoka and content creator - so please if you want to know more about real combat defense in a security/forces perspective im happy to discuss my thoughts.

[@beta_cygni1950]

Just out of curiousity, what are your thoughts on the double leg takedown defense shown, based on your (great!) comments above?

[@confessedrock7358]

I wasnt around long enough in judo to use tawara gaeshi in a tournament, but in randori with the boys we would still attack legs and take the gi off and wrestle from time to time and tawara was my go-to, I think about every 9 times out of 10 it would work and the last was a workable newaza position.

[@e.b.5479]

Great master🙏👍

[@John-mb7yl]

Great vidso n instructions ❤❤❤

[@twinsunsurvivor8564]

Dear sensei Shintaro higashi. Please make an instructional of this move at 2.30. for no gi..... Please 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@johnmonte6713]

Westwood over the Ford building? That old man was amazing!! Forgot his name helped my judo game for my jujitsu. He was amazing!!! Taught at the Kodokan from what I remember and his daughter won Bronze? One year at Olympics?

[@markschoenberger7825]

I am not a judoka. On that first throw (against the headlock) how do you protect your right arm as the attacker lands on it? Or you fall on it?

[@jungtou]

Theoretically, the attacker should be slamming the ground with either his shoulder or head first. But in practice, yeah your arm might also hit the floor.

[@MatthewNguyen-zx3de]

It won't hurt you as much as it hurts them in the event that it does hit the ground.

[@فُلان-ه4ث]

If you made an uki goshi instructional for jiu jitsu rules/self defense I would buy it in a heartbeat even if it were expensive

[@ropongi1008]

I lovec the Judo stuff, it's really cool to watch how it could work in the street, BUT..., a half way decent wrestler will NOT "shoot" in with their back bent. They showed a very poor example of a wrestler 's "shot" (you should NEVER assume that the person "shooting " in on you in a "street altercation" , or for that matter, the person attacking you on the street, is completely untrained, or for example you should NOT assume that person has never wrestled in High School, or Middle Shool, and has no idea of how to properly "shoot" in on someone), however, all of the other stuff was quite impressive. Thanks for posting

very good but without misdirection of opponent balance before the technique ; they will be ineffective against larger opponent.

Love all of those, but seeing Jeff Chan do double...man the speed and the momentum...i doubt any of those would work

[@vinhdaboi6302]

I'd say fair warning to block/brace the double so you have enough time to wrap and lift part... I, 150 lb, tried this with my friend 240 lb, full send first try and got smashed into the floor

[@garthwick19]

Headlocks normally take the locked person much lower, bent double. These defences are not against a street headlock.

[@Radigrdn]

No matter the elevation, you can always (say their right arm is headlocked over, and the left is holding it closed, you can reach your right arm under their right knee, and left arm under their left knee and lift, and throw into sidecontrol, if they keep your head from there then you post your arms or elbows on their head and posture up, you can take the armbar from here, stand up, or go for mount.

[@beta_cygni1950]

​@@Radigrdni was taught to get your leg behind them, blocking the bsck of tjeir leg on the same side youre being choked on. Then step forward and basically put your butt on the floor in front of them. You wind up in side control. The rest is as you said.

Real judo is for self defense, not for competition, It's a shame to change judo because of competition 😢

[@MatthewNguyen-zx3de]

On the plus side you get to do randori with all these great athletes, which makes you better at judo in ways that sparring with anyone else wouldn't.
