ONE HANDED JUDO – Fight Judo

My specialization and my obsession (LOL) with the one handed type of judo started once I first noticed Toshihiko Koga hit a one handed seoi nage within the 89 world judo championships. His dynamic one handed standing seoi-nage captured my creativeness. I bear in mind instantly doing my greatest to copy it in school after class. Since then it’s been a nearly 40 journey, a way of life devoted to specializing in that individual technique including increasingly more to it and to today persevering with to construct on it and can most likely accomplish that till I cant do judo any extra.

There have been few who’ve used this technique. And by few I imply about 4. Not many in any respect. The grasp of the one handed Seoi nage was Toshihiko Koga. There are solely only a few one handed throwers Udo Quelmaz and most not too long ago
Soichi Hashimoto and Hifumi Abe (each have a one handed sode tsuri komi goshi). There are certainly a plethora of throws to be executed from a one handed grip.

There are three issues I say on a regular basis;  

1.) First grip. First assault. End and attempt to look dope when you’re doing it.  

2.) Grip struggle like a boxer and have footwork like Barry Sanders.  

3.) Anytime judo is used transcend rule, transcend concept and change into a demon. 

The one handed type is a dynamic, ballistic and athletic technique that’s higher utilized from a extra upright stance, like that of a boxer. Every thing about this preventing technique of Judo from the stance (false lead) onward is unorthodox and has a definite objective. The one handed type catches the opponent off guard. The cut up stance or cut up step entry will get the hips beneath the opponent’s and makes it simple to load him up. As soon as the opponent is loaded up there’s little he can do to keep away from getting thrown.

Coming into into the Throw with the Rear Foot

In one in all his Seoi nage variations Toshihiko Koga would enter right into a seoi nage with the rear foot. On this variation of the one handed drill, I’m getting into into ippon seoi nage with the rear foot utilizing a again step. My rear foot steps
behind my lead foot previous the bottom line and to the nook of the triangle.
