Maruyama has got to be one of the most exciting to watch currently. So much style.

[@jamej8370]

Learning how to look at what is going happening in a match is really helping me identify my own weaknesses. Thank you Travis

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

Awesome! I'm glad it helped!

[@themechakid]

"I hope you found some value on that", after explaining short and simple but in great dept, possibly making my uchimata and Judo in general way better 😁

[@christopherround5831]

This was an awesome video!

[@danielorphanou]

Loved this video thanks more of these videos plz

[@lazintata]

Awesome explanation of Maruyama's technique. One of the best uchimata explanations I've ever heard. Keep up the good work Travis, it seems to me that your channel is worth joining. You may become even a better coach than you were a player (and you were an awesome player).

[@karimkooros7234]

Incredible throw and very well explained Travis

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

Thanks Karim!

[@jsl8461]

Really astute observations, thank you! Another thing I am amazed by with Maruyama is how he sometimes attacks with uchi mata off of his grip. He'll just grab and go. It's crazy how he can cover distance and fit his hips into position to lift without spending any time to feel them out. That must take extraordinary proprioception and awareness.

[@carzoparazzo9698]

The distance its not amazing, what its amazing its the speed and coordination for that distance.

[@joberodrigues9635]

Just beautiful, and a great video!

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

Thank you very much!

[@SasakiKojiro7]

Really really really awesome video Travis thank you! I really enjoyed your observations and your attention to the small details which differentiates Maruyama's uchimata from others on the circuit (and at all levels in fact). I personally believe that what differentiates the Japanese as well as the really great competitors is that full commitment you pointed out. I know that I do my best to replicate that mentality in my own judo!

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

I’m glad you like it! It’s such a hard thing to replicate

[@FeralWorker]

Woaw, this really made me appreciate Judo anew. Definitely an under-implemented art in mma. (Subscribed!)

Welcome to the community Jason011987! This should be a wild ride. I hope you continue to enjoy the content I'm throwing up here on KZbin!

Amazing uchi mata and amazing breakdown, guess what i will be dedicate my extra training time on.

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

Have fun! Let me know how it goes and if you're able to pull it off!

When I noticed it. I was shocked it's why I wanted to make the video!

[@luisquintino7308]

@@TravisStevensgrappling after your video, i went to watch Shonei Onos Uchimata as I thought previously that that was the most impressive uchi mata I ever saw. Not an more Maruyamas is godly. Interestingly they are training partners. edit: spelling

Freaky, Awesome.

[@lucterbogt183]

These vids are getting me thorugh my thesis and examns man

[@alexklochok7187]

Thank you very much for everything you do for the judo community!!! I think your videos help thousands of people to improve their judo. You are doing a priceless help! Thank you!!!

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

My pleasure Alex! I'm glad you see the value in the videos.

[@misnomer4231]

great vid (i'm late) the only person i like more than maruyama is nagase. Maruyama is so amazing!

[@tomwalker389]

Turning throws are all about torque. It's just like a gold swing. Mark McGwire weighed 240 lbs and hit 70 HRs in a single season. But even McGwire can't drive a golf ball as far as Tiger or Rory McIlroy; he simply can't get the amount of torque that they can. When Maruyama leaps into his Koshi or Oikomi Uchimata, he covers 4' in the same time it takes someone else to cover 2'. So it looks as if his sweeping leg is floating before it's replaced by his posting leg. When he finally pushes of his posting leg and turns his torso, the amount of torque generated by recovering 4' of distance is just crazy. Especially for someone who competes at 145 lbs.

[@remytuazon9491]

His cool

[@posho9308]

I think kim yun jeong had a wonderfull uchimata as well

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

You would be correct!

[@Darren_Tay]

I'm convinced. I'll be quitting Judo to take up competitive jumping now.

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

LMAO! Maruyama has some real skill!

[@bluetiger5064]

I wonder if Travis likes to keep up with judo tournaments and what not

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

Not really. But I do like to go back and watch surprising matches and out come to see what happened.

[@ferminbalda4422]

Hello Travis I think your analysis was super helpful and made me realize how important it is to cover distance when it's time to throw. But there's something I don't understand. How is Maruyama able to break the balance of the opponent? I mean he doesn't have space to pull with his hands and kuzushi. When I enter I need distance to pull from a stable position and enter afterwards. I don't know if I made my point. I just don't see how is able to pull that off.

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

I'll make a video explaining it.

It's a crazy division!

Feedback: it'd be a good idea to leave the email for video analytics under at least every analysis video, took a while to find: [e-mail]

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

Sorry thought it was there I'll make sure to go back and add it. Thank you for bringing that to my attention.

[@MaadLuck]

Has far as the upper body goes how do we consider our hips in relation to our head going lower

[@talin19978]

How to jump like Maruyama?

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

A lot of judo.

[@anon6413]

So, I see 'Murica is still sticking with the feet and inches thing...

[@lucterbogt183]

Maybe an idea for a video: I keep hearing that left handed judo players are awkward to handle, have an advantage etc. It would be cool to see a vid that would enlighten what is is that left handed people can take their advantage with (likekwhat throws and spacing etc.) and maybe how righties can adapt to fighting a left judoka. Im a leftie so i might be biased on this but i think itd be pretty cool

[@therightpath2299]

If you really want to improve your uchi mata, then do the splits
