Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey guys, welcome back to the Shintaro Higashi Show with Peter Yu. Today we're going to talk a little bit about my video series. Don't worry, it's not a full-blown commercial. Three payments of $19.99 and you'll learn taiyatoshi that no one ever can stop. It's not really like that. It's kind of like to guide you in the mishmash of stuff that I have out there to sort of maximize your learning because I guess if you're listening to this stuff already
Starting point is 00:00:23 that you like hearing my thoughts on judo. so i want to clarify some of this yeah so the idea is to give you guys some pointers because as you guys know shintaro has made a lot of videos yep over the years and you know there's a lot to you know sometimes people are confused on where to even start or what to even watch yeah so we want products out there and you know hopefully i can kind of go through some of the products that i have out there so you could learn from that too right it's not going to be a full-blown commercial there's gonna you're gonna learn something from this podcast right so so what way what do you recommend to people to start with like when you when they start watching your videos so if you're the type of person that likes
Starting point is 00:01:05 a sort of a linear learning progression right i have a very very very beginner white belt curriculum where i start with breakfalls and all that stuff on the dojo.com right right that's a very good place to start right i also have a basic judo series on judo fanatics. And I also have a ton of stuff for free on YouTube. And YouTube sort of is the king because it's free. Like free. Yeah. So YouTube has, you know, those are like the more focused short videos, right? Yeah, YouTube's a little bit more focused.
Starting point is 00:01:48 It's flavor of the day. So the way I like to approach it is I'll do like a practice or something and whatever I taught to someone specifically or the class, I was like, okay, that was pretty good. Let me show some of that on YouTube. And I try to bang out five to ten video clips in one shot. So it's very efficient and I have a little bit
Starting point is 00:02:05 of a bank and I slowly release them over the next course of the two weeks or so. Right. So like that's kind of my method but it takes a lot of the contextual stuff
Starting point is 00:02:13 out of it. For instance, if we're looking at right side versus left side Oji into Taitoshi inside chip into Taitoshi where you chip the person over the leg.
Starting point is 00:02:20 Right. That's very specific and I don't go into a lot of the precursor skills of like hand position how to get there. what sort of things that i've done previous exchanges to kind of make the person think you know that the ochi is coming right all that stuff gets taken out you see advantage inside trip outside trip that's it right it's not really an outside trip but it's a tai toshi right so it's very specific it's a short two to five minute
Starting point is 00:02:45 video clip it can be very useful you can specifically look for it but it has to integrate with what you already do right and i don't go into the the nitty-gritty of that and i also don't go into the nitty-gritty of hand position when you're actually executing the throw so like finishing mechanics like i don't really go deep into that right so it's more it's more like oh hey telling you guys uh what's out there this could be a possibility possibility yeah yeah and people was like aren't you running out of stuff to teach yeah and it's like no man there's so much the beauty of judo is in in the nuances and the right little slight variations.
Starting point is 00:03:26 It's like, what do I do with Taiyo? What do I do with Osoto? It's like, that's not really what you do. It's based on opponent's reaction. For instance, like Sasai. It's like you go like this and use your arm for the Sasai, but I don't feel very powerful there. It's based on the person's reaction.
Starting point is 00:03:42 If the person's reacting to my osotogari threat because i'm in dominant position they're leaning this way and i make the shape of the society he's doing the off balance for me right because he's leaning and trying to rush into a position of safety and the trap is my leg gonna be there trying to trip him in that direction right something like that you know and it's like there's bits and pieces of this judo universe that i'm just kind of like picking out a thin air and out of the ether it's like here you go here you go this is something i like this is something this guy does in your face in your face and it's very useful especially if you're at a high level right it gives you ideas right i wish there was my
Starting point is 00:04:18 equivalent that did this when i was young when i had access to that you know someone incredibly good at judo who's super handsome charismatic like me and gives me bits and pieces of his brilliant judo mind you know i wish i had that you know um yeah so it's it's more like so you know if you guys are it's more like oh when you guys are doing randori and then it something's not working so you want some inspiration or some pointers different ideas you can go and search search shintaro's youtube channel yeah and there's a chance that chances chances are good that there will be a video about the situation yeah so a lot of people yes that's exactly right and people hit me up all the time like hey man how can you make a video on Uchimata?
Starting point is 00:05:06 It's like, I've already done it. Use the search function. Type in Chintaro Higashi Uchimata and you'll find all these tidbits and many, many video clips of me doing Uchimata. And a lot of the times I'm repeating myself. And the reason why I'm repeating myself is because it's worth saying. Don't do Uchimata from losing position because you'll get countered. Very easy to counter a bad Uchimata from a bad position right stepping around picking him up you know you can stretch it you know and you have like early stage defenses where you're just using your arms and you have
Starting point is 00:05:34 late stage defenses like when the person's already in stepping it over or whatever it is right you have like a medium mid-stage defense which is like you scotchy it yeah yeah so it's like you have all these different segments and then i'm going to take bits and pieces and teach so it's like you can kind of piece together or pick and choose whichever you want right right but you're missing the context because it's not a linear program right so if you look at a sakashi where the person goes in uchimata and you let the person rotate within the leg and you try to step over it. Right. That shouldn't be your first line of defense.
Starting point is 00:06:08 Yeah, you got to start with the grips and then the positions. Yeah, yeah. So where do you... You know, you know the stuff. Right. So when you watch that and you're just looking to counter people in that way, if you're not good at it, you're going to get taken over. Right.
Starting point is 00:06:32 Right? So it's like yeah so where do you where can people find the linear the whole precursor or even the grips and that kind of like overall more in detail uh in-depth instruction yeah so the dojo.com white belt curriculum is taught in a way which is very, very much so old school methodology of each individual technique. And I do briefly mention hand position. But I don't get too heavy into the concepts. I go like brief concepts of like kizushi off balance, right? Making the technique, being the shape of the technique. Maybe they're right. Maybe they're left handed.
Starting point is 00:07:02 Things like that, right? And I kind of touch upon them so it's like entering into their brain so if you're brand new to judo i definitely suggest starting off with that the dojo.com white belt curriculum right yeah basic judo which is a product by judo fanatics it's a collaboration between me and judo fanatics uh that goes a little bit more in depth it's my take on what basic judo should be like so i don't go in depth about this is how you do an osorogari with the pinky here and the hand here and the kala this and kala that i talk about advantage right first right my hand higher than
Starting point is 00:07:37 my opponent's hand therefore i have an advantage right is this advantage big enough to overcome the size difference or the length difference because i'm a short guy you know i'm five nine right that's not short that's not sure really you know reveal that you know it's funny man people watch my videos they come into the dojo and they're surprised how small i am what really yeah it's really weird right they're like dude i thought you were like six two it's uh it's probably like the uh you know your authority in your videos kind of puts this idea in those people that in the watchers that viewers that you know you're tall you're six five 250 300 pound guy man you're you really short in real life like i get that really yeah i got that so many times
Starting point is 00:08:26 i'm like yeah i'm not a tall person but it's like five nine is like slightly above i think five eights average heights i'm like i'm an inch taller than the average person i think yeah you know like it's not my feelings guys yeah it's the it's the authority that makes you look bigger. Yeah. Yep. So the basic judo. So we covered dojo.com, the white belt curriculum. That's like what you would probably learn when you first walk into a dojo. Like the classical stuff. And I think it's good because you get exposure to some of the terminology. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:00 And the terminology is important. It's not something that I emphasize in practice. I'm like, this is Asadagari. You have to know Asadagari. Show me Asadagari. What move is this important. It's not something that I emphasize in practice. I'm like, this is Osorigari. You have to know Osorigari. Show me Osorigari. What move is this technique? It's Osorigari. I don't focus on that.
Starting point is 00:09:11 I try not to. I think just through exposure, being in the room, having fun doing Judo. Hey, this technique is called Koshiguruma. Let's do this. Koshiguruma this. Koshiguruma that. When I go for Koshiguruma, I like to go Sasai, inch the hand up because you can't really fight the hand up if there's downward pressure here.
Starting point is 00:09:26 So you go Sasai, relieve it, then put the hand up. Now your hand's placed for Koshiguruma. So through repetition of hearing it, people can recognize it. Right, right. Maybe they can't produce it, but they can recognize it.
Starting point is 00:09:38 So now when I'm speaking the language, right side versus right side, dominant position, going for Koshiguruma nagakomi here we go and people start doing it right little by little yeah and one day they're like sensei let me ask you a question about koshiguruma oh my god wow gotcha your job yeah I infiltrated your mind and planted that koshiguruma word right right so the dojo.com is good for that yeah it's like osorogari this is kochigari this is taiyatoshi this is haraigoshi blah blah blah blah blah right
Starting point is 00:10:15 i see and i do talk a little bit about the finer details of what my body does and i always try to say in context like hey this doesn't look like this when you're trying to actually throw somebody because this is not taking into account a resisting opponent. This is a fully cooperating opponent standing there like a milk dud just hanging out. And in that perfect scenario of a neutral person, which you'll never encounter in real life, this is the ideal shape of the movement. Right.
Starting point is 00:10:43 Yeah. So go check that out. It's like, you know, my whole thing with the the movement. Right. Yeah. So go check that out. It's like, you know, my whole thing with the dojo.com. And then you could move on to basic judo. Yeah, which talks a little bit more conceptual. Yeah, I see. And it's my take on the basics. The problem is a lot of the times when you're teaching basic judo to beginners,
Starting point is 00:11:03 people just say, this is the technique go do it right and they leave out all the context and a lot of the in between it's go figure it out on your own and that is one of the philosophies you know a teaching philosophy because people eventually learn it intuitively right and they develop this unconscious knowledge and develop this field-based judo right and if you have five hours a day to do judo for the next 20 years that's great you don't even have to be able to explain any of the stuff you do you could just put your hands on someone just launch them but who has the time to do that right i had the time to do that because i was forced into it as a kid you know so you know that's definitely not a recommended method right right basic judo overcomes that
Starting point is 00:11:55 it's more direct to study yeah yeah and you can find it on you know judofanatics.com yeah so then now you know if uh people have learned the basics of the throws and then a bit of it about the context surrounding the throws yeah what are some of the next steps since we're talking about the linear progression yeah what are some of the other things that people could check out i like basic judo leg grabs even though yes leg grabs because this is the thing love it or not in the olympics there is no leg grabs right love it or not you could argue judo being more of a sport versus martial art yeah right which is it what is it how is it the self defense or not self-defense blah blah blah right and we cover this stuff all the time right but you could train judo specifically as a sport like as an athlete i want to make it
Starting point is 00:12:50 to the ijf tournament the world circuit i want to make the olympic team then you have to play by those rules whatever they do they change their rules all the time grappling sports tend to rotate these rule sets all the time wrestling they were like you know what we're not going to do stalling anymore we're just going to do push-outs if you push the person out of the bounds like you get a point right they did that and they're like they just make up rules yeah make up rules as they go yeah you know uh wrestling kind of not as exciting you know it's very subjective the stalling all right push the person out of bounds you get one point right uh you know it's very subjective the stalling all right push the person out of bounds you get one point right uh you know tiebreaker this and that like coin flip you know what the
Starting point is 00:13:32 last person who scores wins even if it's one-to-one wins that round making up rules as we go right right so if you're gonna play sport judo then yes you have to play to those rules because that's your platform right that's where you want to exist and that's where you have to play to those rules because that's your platform right that's where you want to exist and that's where you want to flourish but 99 of the people don't want to do that they want to do judo martial judo how does this apply in a martial context i want to learn this for self-defense i want to use this to get fit right those people don't have to play by those rules all the stuff that preceded these rule changes that's still judo so leg grabs a big part of that right neglected yeah right sometimes i'll teach it in the dojo yeah depending on who's in
Starting point is 00:14:16 the room right so now basic judo leg grabs kind of comes into play because it systemizes all the leg grab stuff and it's a little bit gi specific all the leg grab stuff and it's a little bit specific i gotta tell you yeah and it's a little bit like wrestling i probably should i probably should watch that like i kind of stopped doing any other leg grabs since the leg grab band was yeah i gotta i gotta bring more of that back You know, and I'm kind of like thinking to myself like, ah, what's the way to sort of develop a curriculum that's sort of the best for all around grappling? Right, right. You know, and one of the things is just being very proficient at the single leg. Not the double, not the high C, but the single leg.
Starting point is 00:15:01 Because there's no neck exposure. Right. Things like that, you know. And then I think to myself, okay, learning Nirwaza do i even need to teach closed guard in judo yeah no you definitely don't need it in judo you definitely don't need an ensemble because if you're in closed bottom guard and you go chest to chest you're losing you're getting pinned oh oh even even if you're in someone else's guard close guard doesn't even exist in rest like wrestling you just can't that's a losing position too right because you're so if you're a wrestler it's useless if you're a judoka
Starting point is 00:15:36 it's useless right because it's very easy to stay neutral with no forward progression for five seconds in close guard right right one two three four five no mate stand back up yeah that's the rule right it was only continues if there's movement and forward progression right right sambo losing position useless right all right okay let's talk about the street you know i get it into a scuffle i'm gonna go into close guard walk into someone's close guard where i can't just freely run away or get into bottom close guard to open you know look for a triangle when his friend is stomping me in the face right it's only useful in one realm of grappling if you play a very specific game right so it's like within bjj even within bjj yeah yeah so the only problem with that is anybody who comes
Starting point is 00:16:27 in for for there's a bjj player and they're like i want to do new ones with you guys they do new waza and if i don't teach close guard at all everyone's gonna look really bad right so it's like yeah you balance that right yeah it's like i kind of want to make my own judo style and call it jujitsu and it'll be my invention higashi jujitsu uh yeah you you're dead people do this stuff all the time your dad kind of developed his own thing too right but it's Japanese Jiu-Jitsu. It's like traditional Japanese Jiu-Jitsu. I see. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:07 So, okay. So maybe a future collab with Judo Fanatics about this, maybe. Maybe. Yeah. So we have basic Judo, basic Judo leg grab, which is a great system. And we talk about like shooting distance because if you're within shooting distance, and a lot of these guys learn these takedowns from wrestling right if you're within like touching distance of working the head and working the hands and stuff like that if they grab your gi now you can't shoot right so grip
Starting point is 00:17:33 fighting is very very important if you want to shoot on the legs you have to cut the hand and have two hands versus one hand that way you could easily arm drag and shoot the leg or as you cut the hand you know you could go in for the change levels and shoot because you have a free hand. So creating that free hand, if you're trying to shoot it on someone, that's huge. So I go over that. Nice.
Starting point is 00:17:55 Basic Judo leg grabs. Yeah. And then after learning leg grabs, what linear progression? What should we progress to? Mastering combination concepts. That's a good one. I talk a little bit about contextual stuff.
Starting point is 00:18:12 A lot of the basic judo stuff leads into this directly, the combination. The concepts of action-reaction, misdirection. There's misdirection versus a combination. It's a little bit different. Misdirection is like, I make it look like I'm going one way and going like that. Combination is like, I go ouchi, you step out and I go throw.
Starting point is 00:18:32 Right. And there's different levels of this. Right. I show ouchi and immediately go, I go ouchi and then you lean back into me and then I go. Or I do ouchi, you completely outstep it and then I go. Right. So the timing is different right right working these concepts uh a lot of the times people go ochi to tayo is a good combo right
Starting point is 00:18:51 and they try to go ochi and tayo just make the shapes of the two moves it doesn't really work well because you're not taking into account how the person's reacting and you'll go over that in the video yeah i go over that yeah so once you're capable of doing that then it's gonna be it's gonna add another level to your judo right right but the foundation is yeah the foundation is that you need to know how to how to uh do these throws first yeah yeah you have to do and i kind of briefly go over it. Right. And I'm never a fan of like just looking at the mechanics of throwing somebody. Your hand goes like that and your hand goes like this and your hand goes like that. Because a lot of times if the person's reacting, it doesn't look like that.
Starting point is 00:19:35 Right. You have to adjust. And when you're trying to keep your balance, it doesn't look like that either. And a lot of the times if you look at a move like uchimata right you're in that inside leg position and you're holding on the head and you're not keeping the balance upright yourself but you're using them sort of as a right tripod almost right you're leaning on them now you're using them to hold your body weight up too and you don't see that when you're actually just making the shape of the technique. So I try to go away from like doing me versus just teaching that, right? Because there's a lot more that you don't really see.
Starting point is 00:20:15 Right. It's not just the shapes that you make. Right. It's not just putting together two throws one after another. It's more nuanced than that all right yeah so combinations now and anything else that yeah so i have like sort of three very very specific unique ones right you know demystifying ashiwaza it's like foot sweep stuff and timing stuff and like you know because ashiwaza is mysterious right right i remember there was this
Starting point is 00:20:43 kid greg when i was in high school he was a judo guy that did wrestling and he used to just knock people over by kicking their foot and it looked ridiculous it looked almost like people were just falling for him right right you know what i mean it looked kind of nuts uh so and people could just couldn't figure it out right right people just couldn't understand it like i couldn't understand at the time so it's like demystifying the mechanics of that right timing right shifting the weight from leg to leg attacking the trailing leg can you only foot sweep someone when there's no weight on that leg that's actually yeah you can do like a heel hook the ashi where you pull the person's heel out and twist the knee the sticky weight on that leg right yeah the sticky leg yeah so it's like oh wow you could foot sweep somebody even when they have
Starting point is 00:21:30 weight on the leg even when they don't have weight on the leg or while they're shifting their weight from foot to foot right right so now theoretically at any given time you're able to take someone down using your feet and it's very interesting because your upper body's locked up right right upper body's locked up hand position hand position we both have two feet that we're kind of stomping around moving around in the space right having access to your opponent's feet in a certain way and just knocking him over like that's really cool so like i kind of wanted to go in depth about that nice got a specialized one yeah i really like that one and then what else what else do you said there are a few there so mastering tomonage that's just if you want to learn tomonage right oh that was a yeah a lot of that one was for me
Starting point is 00:22:21 too because like i love tomonage and it took a very long time for me to sort of figure it out. And then I was trying to teach it to my guys, and they weren't really getting it. And then I was trying to do it, but I wasn't really having success with it that much. I didn't really use it as a competitor. Right. And I started figuring it out.
Starting point is 00:22:37 I started teaching it. My guys started having success with it, and I started hitting it sort of regularly at the dojo. And then I was like, all right, let's sort of regularly at the dojo and then i was like all right let's sort of put this together in a teachable way right and i spoke to some of the master tomonaga guys and i've known guys who are very very good at tomonaga right and you know really kind of did a study on it and that's sort of my result it's my case study slash i guess dissertation if you know your dissertation on tomo nage yeah peter gets a phd in software engineering i am getting a phd in tomo nage yo that's cool too
Starting point is 00:23:14 man so it's more like tomo nage like not 101 it's not a dissertation it's like a master's degree well no no i can't even say it's a it's a bachelor of science bachelor of science it's not a dissertation. It's like a master's degree. Master's. Well. No, no, no. I can't even say it. It's a Bachelor of Science. Bachelor of Science. It's like a Bachelor of Science senior thesis kind of thing. Yeah. It's like that. No, you know, I'm going to go a master's on this one.
Starting point is 00:23:36 Master's. Good. From a real university. Yeah. Not like that Princeton that you. Not like that Princeton that you... So the basic trend is that dojo.com, the classic stuff, you learn that. And then you lay the foundation with the basic judo, like the basic throws, the leg grabs and throws. And then you learn how to put these throws together because they're not, again, they're not just doing one technique after another.
Starting point is 00:24:09 Right. And then you can be more specific now. Ashiwaza, tomoinage, maybe some grip fighting. You got something for grip fighting too, right? Not really. I have a breaking through the stiff arm. Oh, stiff arm. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:22 Yeah. And this is more so just training methodologies because you do encounter people who are stiff and who are not willing to engage right right which means this is the problem with the stiff arm when you encounter a stiff arm an opponent they're not engaged they're not trying to throw you so you're not dealing with skilled opposition most of the time right right so when the person's not engaging right like if you ever wanted to box someone that doesn't want to box with you, right? And all they're doing is running away.
Starting point is 00:24:48 You have to chase them down to punch them. Now all of a sudden, you're essentially just playing tag. Like you're really not playing boxing, right? Right, right. And that's sort of a similar analogy to what happens in the judo room when the goal is for us to slam each other and take each other down. But one person is not engaging in this and they're just locking their arms out and staying away. Right? So how do you deal with that?
Starting point is 00:25:09 How do you train with that person? Right. It's kind of a thing that a lot of people encounter at the intermediate level. So that's sort of for my intermediate level players. Right. If you're a very beginner and you bought Mastering the Break, oh, Break a Feet with Stiff Arm, if you're a completely beginner, you're not going break oh break if it was stiff arm like if you're completely beginner you're not going to get much out of it right and if you're an expert in judo like if you're advanced level judo player you're not going to get much out of that either truthfully
Starting point is 00:25:33 right you know because you're probably past that point yeah so you have to kind of look at yourself and see where you are in the judo journey you know if you've never done judo before i start i would start with the dojo.com white belt curriculum and then go to basic judo. Right. And the beauty of the basic judo is because it's my take on basic judo and my methodology specifically to the way I sort of created in my own mind, right, is beneficial for everybody because it takes a different twist. It's not basic judo taught in the basic way. Right, right, right. So basic judo is for everybody basic judo leg grabs is for people who want to learn how to do leg grabs yeah yeah and then tomonagi like i said is specialized emissifying ashiwaza that's another
Starting point is 00:26:17 specialization yeah it's a specialization if you're interested in it go buy it but right you know uh the ashiwaza stuff you could find on youtube right um and the other like specialization like specialized techniques you can all find them on youtube on youtube yeah even though i kind of like brisk over it there's part of me that wants to do like uchimata week or something or uchimata month where it just teaches all the little things of yeah do like a master class month on youtube you know if you think that's a good idea yeah that'll be interesting yeah that would be interesting right yeah so i don't really know uh how i'm gonna do that but it's in the works i'm also working on like a nogi judo curriculum oh that's another big thing yeah so that's something that i'm working on not really
Starting point is 00:27:03 working on but i'm just'm just procrastinating on. I could probably film it tomorrow. Most of the stuff, I could just kind of wing everything. I don't do a master plan and a deep outline because a lot of the stuff I already think about all the time and teach all the time. Right. So it comes natural. Right.
Starting point is 00:27:18 Anything that I try to script, it just doesn't seem authentic. I'm not very good at memorizing lines and scripting anything yeah well it's like you you're good at like just going you know you're very eloquent in that thank you because i know it but ask me you know how to read a pnl that's yeah so then well if you guys are more uh interested in those things yeah, hit us up, hit Shintaro, tell him that, Hey, how about that Nogi Judo stuff? And maybe, you know,
Starting point is 00:27:49 motivate him to push it. I am really working with someone though, on this video called bridging the gap, bridging the gap, what gap and what Judo for BJJ and BJJ for Judo players. Hmm. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:05 So if you go, if you're a Judo player, you want to do BJJ to judo players. Yeah. Yeah. So if you're a judo player, you want to do BJJ to complement your judo, to complement your strengths. If you go to a dojo, you're at the mercy of whatever they're teaching. Right.
Starting point is 00:28:13 Whether it's De La Riva or open guard or K guard. Like all that stuff is not relevant in judo at all. It might not even help you. Right, right. It might actually be detrimental.
Starting point is 00:28:24 Yeah. If you don't do Tomonage or Sumigaeshi and you're doing bottom open guard, how would you ever get in that position? Right, right, right. You know what I mean? Exactly. It's like, yeah, so you can't really proactively get there, even if you're good at it.
Starting point is 00:28:39 So it's like, what is the best bang for your buck? What BJJ teaches that could complement your judo right off the bat. Right. Right. And Brian Glick is going to teach that. He's a John Donovan black belt. He teaches me BJJ. So he's going to teach that.
Starting point is 00:28:53 And I'm going to specifically say to him like, hey, these are the areas of BJJ that can be the most useful for judo. And I know enough about both sports to say, you know, these are the exact places and then him too right i've been teaching judo to him for years right but not everything in judo is beneficial in bjj a lot of it is not beneficial to bjj right i'm gonna do a stand-up tayo
Starting point is 00:29:19 you know on a bjj guard that's a guy that's about to pull guard yeah it'll never work right right it can work it can work but very very very like unlikely so it's like why if you're doing brazilian jiu-jitsu and you're coming to learn judo are you drilling tatoshi because everyone else is drilling tatoshi right right if the instructor doesn't know any bj they don't have any of that context right right you know and they't know any bjj they don't have any of that context right right you know and they're going to give you this thing of like hey you just turn really hard or snap the head down and the head comes up and you go taiyo not that simple right right why don't we start with the techniques that complement bjj better actually there's a low risk bjj low
Starting point is 00:30:02 risk judo for bjj video i forgot to mention. It's on BJJ Fanatics. Oh, you go both ways, huh? BJJ Fanatics. Yeah, go both ways. Yeah. Nice. Yeah, I forgot about that one. So that's a good one because I go over kochi, ouchi, tomonage, sumigayashi,
Starting point is 00:30:18 and how to integrate those things. Because anytime someone tries to pull guard, you can do kochi, leg pick, ouchi, leg pick. Because they pick because they're eating back they're giving you the off balance they're giving you the kuzushi right makes sense so yeah low risk judo for bjj yeah right and then we're gonna i already have that out but then we're gonna me and brian glick are gonna do a collaboration video hopefully it's gonna be unteachable i think that's some new platform that we're going to mess around with oh is that that's for like general stuff right not just for grappling yeah teachable so yeah and you know it's going to be great because me and brian collaboratively we have great knowledge together and it really integrates man you should see the
Starting point is 00:30:57 workouts we do me and him it's amazing good yeah yeah so it's like a cacophony of just beautiful judo and grappling you know yeah so it's like we'reacophony of just beautiful judo and grappling. So it's like we're going to talk a lot about it. We're going to talk ideas and how this thing integrates. And if you're a BJJ guy, wanting to learn judo is perfect. If you're a judo guy, wanting to learn BJJ is great for it. And then sort of how to connect. Judo guy, BJJ guy, connecting. Bridging the gap.
