Live Demo On Movement And Positioning For Judo

[@marcusmarcus8379]

I see clearly, some people just don’t like you show knowledge that surely is spot on . Just keep going Travis you’re No1 champ and superb coach .

[@joshprice7436]

I love that Travis makes me feel stupid and teaches me awesome stuff in the process. "Use your brains people!" Cracking me up and also, this video is super helpful. 🤣

[@MatthieuSCHREK]

Basic stuff, Travis says. I say : why is everyone enjoying this so much, then ? We all wanted to be taught that when starting judo. Travis is the best.

[@iamabean]

Shout out to Ryan for helping Travis in all the videos. Ryan you are awesome

[@throwzilla]

This is the best instruction on the internet.. you give the why's of what you are doing...some things you speak of i have had questions about and no one answers or either confirms my thoughts

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

Glad you found it helpful Theodore!

[@pelejahosoba5280]

Travis is definitely the best judo teacher even here in Nigeria am feeling invincible already

[@Yupppi]

This is one of the best lessons along with the ones about kuzushi. Everybody can learn a throwing technique and perform it in practice with a willing uke, but actually applying them when you have an opponent instead of a willing demonstration person is a whole another world and that's where the magic of judo comes alive. That's where the mind connects with the physical practice. The way to make it easy for yourself so you don't have to force it, that you can perform a sound technique instead of tearing the opponent in all directions. All the lessons about removing or taking advantage of opponent's grip, lessons about lifting the gi driving the opponent with your leg or hip to one leg are great. That's what's in my opinion lacking with most inexperienced judokas like myself. The opponent has to let me throw them for me to get a clean throw, instead of me creating the opportunity and not leaving them a choice but to fall. I'm happy that my sensei makes us do kuzushi and combinations with feints every practice session. But somehow it's so rare to have this stuff explained to you at any point. It's the base for every tehcnique following, but for some reason you don't start from studying it, the balance and body itself. You might get tips during practicing techniques that lead you to do these things in isolation, but you won't get explained the core idea that you can apply to everything yourself.

How is the Kuzushi Workshop from Travis Stevens called. I think Gripping and Kuzushi is my weakest link as a beginner atm.

[@zangified0117]

100% man

[@teacherleo20245]

Travis really teaches us!!! He's just something else!!!

[@darkthunderplotts]

I actually like your rants for the simple fact it helps me gain a better understanding of basic techniques

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

Thanks I'm glad you like them. Sometimes it can be to much! But once you get me started there's no going back!

[@Leopar525]

Just wow. At last someone explaining the useful fundamentals

[@r0ldi187]

Thanks Travis and Ryan for this great vid. Really opened my eyes and really helped me understand when & where to attack. Much love and respect from Alaska!

[@OmegaSupremeWCheese]

Ranting Travis is the best Travis. Some key takeaways in addition to movement and positioning, Travis has a big stick, Ryan is not good, and we're all glad that guy likes Karate.

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

LMAO! That pretty much sums it up!

[@martinbagacka7998]

Thank you for streams and videos like this. I am 5th kyu yellow belt and this helps me a lot. Greetings from Slovakia

[@kristianjosh8293]

This video is awesome. Basic fundamentals is the key to life success

[@craigleadley2472]

I'm a beginner in Judo after practicing karate for many years. This video was really helpful for me so thank you!

[@mickrichy4455]

Thank you. My kids are struggling with this ATM.

[@jeffdecastro2967]

Excellent explanation...thank you! via Houston, Texas..

[@josephgarza7634]

Video Idea here! Optimal grips for different feet and body positions. Philosophy behind grips and their uses.

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

You should check out my video on BJJ Fanatics on gripping it's a whole dvd on the philosophy behind each grip and why you would use it.

[@josephgarza7634]

Travis Stevens Thanks Travis I’ll get right to it!

[@danielissa2672]

Very Nice all vídeos!!! Tks from Brazil

[@escraonjudoju-jitsuolivier6313]

Amazing as usual, i can at the same time improve my english and my judo !!!! Great tips with the sticks to visualize the plan in which the trow will be effective. some ideas for the week to come idea 1 : in the week following the workshop could you do a video on drills ( drills related to the workshop?). Idea 2 more video on set up ( what you show at the end wit o goshi) five set up for seoi , five set up for harai goshi, five set up for kubi nage ... . Idea 3 : may be a workshop on counter ? Sacrifice throw (sumi , tomoe nage, ura nage) , makkikomi. Thanks for all coach

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

Those are all really good ideas! Thank you for that. It gives me some things to plan out!

[@Tatamimatt]

Awesome video Travis thank you, would also be really good to see a tutorial on transition from Tachi waza to Ne waza if possible please, would love to learn more about getting smooth transitions and how to react thanks 👍🏻

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

I got you Tatami Matt!

[@lehrer86]

[@eazyrider850]

Great vid and explanation. Regards from the Netherlands🥋

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for checking out the channel!

[@lucatraverso6891]

Good job.... I appreciated! 👍

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

You're welcome Luca!

[@judeb3673]

always Thank you! your video is the best and really helpful. I think sometimes injury is common in sport like Judo or BJJ or any martial art, so I think overcoming injury is important part especially for high level judokas. also preventing an injury is important too. this is just my thought. I would like to watch a rehabilitation training or taping video for judoka's injury such as ankle, knee, elbow etc. I've learned a lot from your video. really thank you from Korea.

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

I have considered a taping video. Maybe it's time to shoot that.

[@OmicronLover2.0]

Maybe you can make a Video about Randori or bester fighting Strategie ( sorry for the german Word). How is your gameplan how do you try to winn a fight? Greetz from Germany

[@alexm1290]

Very good video, thank you very Much !

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

You are welcome Alex!

[@judocrusader5171]

THanks Travis.

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

Your welcome Judo Crusader!

[@kcov6170]

Travis was a little disrespectful to his student brown belt. Perhaps, it would be better to not humiliate the poor guy on camera. Besides that, this video instruction was outstanding

[@michaelspyrou1784]

perfect

[@boingboingjr]

Hey brother, can you do a workshop on how to 1 step any Tachi waza technique?

[@TravisStevensgrappling]

Not all throws can be done in one step But some can be. is there a specific throw your wondering about?
