you're giving them problem solving things.
Here's two plus three, here's three times nine,
here's another problem, hands a little bit high,
let me attack from losing position.
And you're just kind of like trading problems.
That's what it should be.
Kid, like kids are sometimes like, I threw an adult,
like, no, you did it, but good for you for believing that.
Don't do that.
Don't fall for a guy five times.
Don't coach a mid round.
Just let the kid work out.
Let the guy work out.
Take one or two falls and shut up.
Don't give him unsolicited advice.
Don't do the thing where.
Hey, your taiyatoshi doesn't feel.
Shut up. Just let the guy work.
Hello, everyone.
Welcome back to the Shintaro Higashi show with Peter Yoo.
Today, we're going to talk about doing randori safely or safe randori.
Yeah, it's like one of the things you always emphasize, you know.
And you've posted some randori videos lately for the gym.
So what kind of things, like what do you think about the highlights?
Like were they, like anything, what do you think about the highlights? Like, were they like anything?
The safety aspect was it reflected?
Like, what would you think about the highlight reels?
I mean, of course, right?
So like I there was a highlight reel and then there's a video of me just ranting to the guys.
Yeah, pre-run Dory.
It's a five-minute thing of me saying, all right, guys, don't do this.
Don't do that.
Yeah, you guys have to do this.
Take it.
Keep attention to that. And I'm going to go do this. Take it, keep attention to that.
And I'm going to go over those rules in a little bit, but that did really well.
That gave me the idea for this kind of Rondori thing.
And then you can sort of see it in the highlights, you know,
it shouldn't be the case that you see two green belts and below same belts going.
You don't really see two intermediate guys doing drop attacks.
You don't see anyone really going for Tanya Toshi, you know,
yeah, all these different things that are reflected yes but doing mandori save is a number one thing I don't even recommend it for any
beginners for at least six months majority of the time unless it's sort of
semi-coordinated so there are multiple aspects of this like it's not just about
the people who need to pay attention. It's about the
you need the teacher, the sensei has to foster this environment where these things are just
automatically encouraged. Right? So, well, let's start with the athletes. So what do
they have to what are their responsibilities?
Keeping each other safe. Yeah, but not before keeping each other safe, you have to keep are their responsibilities? Keeping each other safe. Before we get to the sensei.
But not before keeping each other safe,
you have to keep yourself safe.
So it's self preservation first and foremost.
That's the number one thing that I preach.
And before every mandori,
I give them some sort of like a pre-mandori,
whether it's one minute or 20 seconds, right?
Just kind of a reminder.
So they're constantly hearing,
hey, these are the things, you know, I don't go through the whole list every
single time. Right. And then I'll single out certain people. Right. I'll do that.
You know, I used to get singled out all the time. Hey, you remember no drops on
green belts and below. Yeah, you hear me. And then I'll do that. And it that and it's like oh you're calling him out but he should be called out because
he did drop say Nagi on a yellow belt last time twice and I warned him yeah
right so he gets a public sort of a thing and that's also a reminder to
everyone else oh yeah right right and absolutely no tiny
Toshi if you're not a black belt dog
Yeah, I thought did you relax several a little bit cuz he used to be like complete man No, but it was like, you know, like for instance all the day
Anthony was going with this other kid Patrick. Yes young and tough from Brooklyn 20 or 18 or whatever it is
Yeah, really really aggressive and then Anthony was already behind him he postured up and then it was like you know what there was no room forever right yeah yeah he was
just like so clean i was like all right fine you know it's okay it was like one of those times
you know what i mean and then you watch and you see the intent of the athlete and it's not him
just getting out of a bad position or diving for something. He was absolutely certain that there was no way that the knee
was gonna get saddled up or like yeah or anything underneath you know and he
slid through pulled him and then at the very end lifted him and then it was just
like so well done and you know I think you could teach that but you need ten
years of experience to be able to execute that. And then for him, it's okay. For majority of you listening,
I don't think you should do it. I just don't, you know, and not because I don't
trust you because, but I don't know you, you know, I don't know how good you are.
And I don't know what environment it is. And in most cases, I think 95% of cases
It is and in most cases I think 95% of cases
Shouldn't go for tiny atoshi in the gym. Yeah, because
95% of you aren't black belts with 10 years of experience
Yep, I I agree that yeah, it's the guys who are complaining about online Oh, how these guys gonna learn how to defend a tiny atoshi? No blah blah. You're
Probably a black belt and you've been doing it for 20 years. I'm not talking to you
Mm-hmm. I'm talking about the guys who's been doing judo under three years
Intermediates why are you doing tiny atoshi to those guys? They can pull their knee out
You really want these guys diving at your legs that 230 pound guy who doesn't want to fall
He's gonna grab you and pull you backwards and then sit his hips down into the side of your knee. You want that?
It's like a risk benefit analysis, right? If you're, yeah, sure. They may not
really, they may not be the best Tanyotoshi defender, but you are risking
them not being a judoka at all.
Yeah. You know, you know what, there's ways to defend Tanya Toshi even before getting
the Tanya Toshi by position, by gripping, by posting on that neck with your collar
hand so he can't close the distance. Yeah. You know? Anyway, Vandori rules. Yeah, so
okay. I'll do it. So you, I, uh, I mean, it's a self preservation first.
And then you move on to, okay, you have to know the other, your partner, like,
what level they are, what kind of injuries they may, they may have.
Let's go back to self preservation though. Cause I think people forget this, right?
For me, it's like, all right, when a new guy comes to the dojo, never seen him
before, he wants to work out with me specifically.
If he's drilling a watch, oh, he's righty.
OK, oh, he's lefty.
All right, he's heavier.
Mm hmm. You know, all these little things.
And then, all right, Rondori, I didn't get to watch him do Rondori.
He's coming at me because sometimes people like I saw you on YouTube.
I had to work out with you.
You know, and thankfully, most of those guys are not very good
So like thank you thankfully, you know, you don't get a all-japan champion coming in challenging me. You just don't get that, you know
So anyway first minute just gripping seeing what he's gonna do
Right not going for big entangled big which amount of says he might try to count to me in a dangerous way
Yeah, right. Yeah not going chest to chest hip to hip because he might try to counter me in a dangerous way. Yeah, yeah.
Not going chest to chest, hip to hip,
because he might have a dangerous Urenage
or something that he's gonna rip.
Yeah.
So keeping him away, doing some like outside stuff,
gripping by the sleeve, controlling them first
for the first minute, right?
Tiring them out for 30 seconds,
just putting a lot of pressure from the gripping, you know?
Yeah.
Attacking the feet, low risk stuff, faking and stuff,
see what he bites, and then taking them down down once and then riding the rest of the round out
Super safe zero chance of me getting in. I don't say zero knock on wood
Very very low risk of me getting hurt. Yeah in control the whole time
Yeah, not slamming the guy with it on his head doing low risk stuff
Right just out gripping him, tiring on
him, done. Now I know where he is completely. And throughout the
process of that, I see him spamming certain techniques, going for certain
attacks. Now I'm aware. Yeah. You know, if I think the... Yes. And if I faint the Uchi
Mata or something and he just dives my legs I could still post and keep him away this guy has a dangerous Tanya Toshi and
Now you have to yeah do all this thing like that posting against the chin and everything
Yes, that's self-preservation
Yeah, I'm tired. I'm not gonna go with this guy. I don't know who he is. Yeah. Yeah, that's a
One in the room, I know
So it's like two guys who know each other.
I you know, I know Johnny.
He gets pretty tough with the hip to hip and right versus left.
I'll enter there and like mess around with him for a little bit.
Yeah, it's fine if he gets in and takes me down, you know.
Not really. It depends on which matters.
Right. But then it's safe because I know he's not going to try to throw me,
you know, and then disregard my health. He's not like I'm going's not gonna try to throw me,
and then disregard my health.
He's not like, I'm gonna take him down at all costs.
He's not gonna be like that with me.
So he's a black belt that I could train with safely.
Trust him, self preservation obviously.
Like these kinds of things, self preservation.
Yeah, I see.
No, don't go for Taiyotoshi on bigger, heavier guys,
because they could land on your knee.
Yeah, yeah.
So this is this kind of ties into like the grip fighting too like this always staying in control and then
yeah, like it don't don't overextend yourself.
And so after self-preservation what comes next actually try to
I could think of like, oh, maybe you just try to accommodate the partner. preservation what comes next actually They're not gonna learn, they're gonna get frustrated, they're gonna quit. So it's like, what are the things that they're working on?
You know, it really comes down to like
having a conversation with them beforehand.
What are you working on, what are you trying?
And then me as a sensei says to the room,
hey, if you're a beginner, white or yellow,
about going to black belt, you're not gonna beat them.
There's no way.
If they wanna beat you, they'll throw you on your head.
Okay, you have the ability to slam you at will. Okay. So don't even play that game.
You're not competing with that black belt. They're your guide. Yeah. Yeah.
They're going to let you throw them. Yeah. Once or twice. That's the,
that's the key thing. Once or twice. That's it. Yeah.
If you take five falls, it's patronizing. Oh, yeah. Oh, you got me.
Oh, yeah. Oh, nice.
That was a good throw.
Shut up. You know, no one wants to hear that shit.
Yeah. You're not a kid.
Like kids are sometimes like, I threw an adult like, no, you did it.
But good for you for believing that. Yeah.
Don't do that. Don't fall for a guy.
You should feel like, yeah, don't coach mid-round. Just let the kid work out.
Let the guy work out, take one or two falls, and shut up.
Don't give him unsolicited advice.
No, you don't grab the key right.
Hey, your taiyatoshi doesn't feel.
Shut up. Just let the guy work.
How about this?
When the person, the white belt or the lower belt locks in the also to Gary and then the
push push push push push push push
shut up seriously they go for the sailor nagas like oh push push like pull pull pull pull pull
pull you know no need no need no need it's disgusting i hate it yeah i see it i'm like stop
No need, no need, no need. It's disgusting.
I hate it.
Yeah, I see it.
I'm like, stop.
Just stop.
Yeah.
So those are like, yeah.
Yeah, so they are like the individual,
at the individual level,
what you should do, self-preservation
and then thinking of others, like not being patronizing.
Because then, you know, you're making them better
and then they wanna keep working out with you.
They're gonna keep back, coming back. And then in return, they're gonna make you better too, because you know, you keep making them better and then they want to keep working out with you they're gonna keep back coming back and then in return
they're gonna make you better too because you know you keep a kid around
for six months doing that and he loves judo and he's coming every day that kid
is not a yellow belt that kids like an equivalent of like a green belt or even
a blue belt at some gym that guys go once or twice a week yeah yeah all right
so thinking about the other person,
letting the guy work,
and then letting the guy work means
you're not out gripping him 100% of the time.
Of course you're gonna be able to out grip him
and control him the whole time.
Yeah.
Sometimes you give him a good position,
sometimes you give him, you out grip him and control him,
sometimes you just foot sweep him, take him down gently,
and then you let them take you down once or twice.
And then if I preemptively say this to everybody,
don't compete with the guy, there you go.
They're gonna take one or two falls for you if it's good.
Sometimes you're in good position,
sometimes you're in bad position.
You as the white or yellow belt,
it's very important for you to recognize
when you're in throwing position.
That's the number one thing.
This is a learning drill. This is not a competition. If it's a
competition, they'll throw you on your head in 10 seconds. I guarantee it.
Okay? And even though it's not always true. And it's a good opportunity for
Ohio belt to put yourself into a bad position and try to like work out of it.
Or like you know try practice like neutrals under control.
You know, you can't you can't try like kind of kind of a Sami all the time or
something like that. But yeah, yeah.
Even like letting the person in with an OCHI and then dropping around and let
them try to figure out how to finish it. You know, that's that's a good drill.
You know, no need to go you go here, go here. No, stop it. Let him figure it out.
You know what I mean? No one wants to be on the bottom end of
that hierarchy of like, Oh, this coach is like, you know, you're being like daddy to a little bit.
Who's your dad? Yeah. Who's your daddy? I got you. Yeah. Who's your uncle? It's like,
yeah. Oh, man. You know, I hate that stuff. So now these are, you can't just rely on the
individuals to be like, Oh, in their best behavior all the time. So you kind of have to kind of
foster this environment and then it's especially important for you as a sensei, right like yeah kind of instilling this
culture of
Self preservation and you know care for others
So what are some of the concrete steps you take at your dojo and then you recommend to for other senseis to do so just very subtly
I'll slip those in there hmm right guys we're gonna do run Dory
remember less talking more judo yeah I love that I love you're talking you're
not doing judo stop talking the time for talking is not now we're doing run Dory
this is like drilling time skill acquisition time a lot of the times when You're not doing judo. Stop talking. Time for talking is not now. We're doing it on Dory.
This is like drilling time, skill acquisition time.
A lot of the times when you're thinking things through,
you don't want someone bombarding you with nonsense.
You know what I mean?
I'm thinking, oh, what is the entry?
Was my fate pretty good?
I'm trying to work Uchiman on the guys.
Like, your pinky's not in the right place.
It's like, it's distracting.
It takes away from their learning experience.
You don't know how they learn.
What makes you an expert just because you're a black belt most black belt sock, you know, we're talking about stop
You know like not interrupting them don't think you're being helpful because you don't know how they want to be helped. Yeah
Yeah, right. So like throwing that it that's talking more judo. Yeah, I'll say that in the middle of a class
I'll see guys coaching guys while they're yeah, that's talking more judo. Yeah, I'll say that in the middle of a class. I'll see guys coaching guys while they're Yeah, let's talking more judo. That's a very short and to the point like, you know, yeah, and instead
of embarrassing someone, let's just say there's a black belt with a green belt, and they're kind of
doing like, Oh, yeah, the title. She there title. She there. I'll walk by and be like, Hey, less
talking more judo. I'll make eye contact with the guy guy, and then he'll know, like, oh, he's talking to me.
All right, maybe I'll, you know, things like this.
You know what I mean?
Hey, you can talk after class.
Right, this is the time to do Andori,
not learning a new technique.
Hey, we're not trying new YouTube things
and asking questions.
This is not a time for questions.
This is not Q&A.
You should have done that during Uchikomi.
Or after practice, you can stay and do some, but this is not the time for that. You know, things like this,
you know. Do you say something specific about safety in this subtle way too? Yeah, like don't
rip it. Yeah. For instance, like Osorogari's. Get in a subtle position, don't rip it. Sometimes you
just got to know when you're sunk and just take a break fall so you could get back up and do it again
If you're resisting it when you're stuck and the guy rips it your knee is gone
Mm-hmm, if you're no soda Gary and you don't go to your back and try to twist out of it and land on your shoulder
Your shoulders destroyed. Yeah. Yeah, so self preservation guys
Just take the break fall get back up and do it again
If you're locked into a soda you both know if you're sunk or not
get back up and do it again. If you're locked into a Soto,
you both know if you're sunk or not.
Don't try these last ditch efforts to spin out of stuff
because it just increases the risk for both players.
If you're falling and you cling onto me,
I have to make the decision,
whether to land on you or dive over you,
which risks us both.
You could risk getting your ribs broken.
I could risk trying to dive
over and landing on my shoulder. So just take a fall. You know these things I
will say explicitly and I have like nine to ten go-to's that I'll say depending
on what the room is doing. So Sensei you can't just treat the randori session as your own practice round.
Like you have so many other things to worry about, you know?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So.
And then I'll do like, all right, first five rounds, let's increase the intensity little
by little.
Intensity is a little bit too high.
People are scrapping like crazy.
I'm like, all right, guys, let's bring down the intensity just a little bit.
I'll say things like that to keep it. You know, and I learned this from Joe San Pieri, who runs a
Muay Thai gym. And I visited them on a sparring class. And he said 10% to the head, 40% to the body.
Hey, that's way more than 10%. Hey, that's like a 40% shot to the head. If you do it again,
you're done. Right. And then I was about to ask that like the emotions could run high
in randoy situations and some people will forget all these rules and kind of
just like rip it you know even though you know there's a mistakes right like
even though they don't usually do it mistakes could happen so how do you deal
with that well you know sometimes the intensity starts ramping up and I'll just stop the round
Yeah, I'll
Reduce the intensity a little bit and I'll remind him. Hey, remember there's a weight difference
You outweigh the guy by 40 pounds. Remember that yeah, you know, cuz yeah it happens, right?
Cuz the we had like a green belt versus orange and the orange belt outweighed the guy by like 30, 40 pounds. And then the orange belt is not his experience,
but you know, he's coming after the green belt and it just seemed unsafe. Yeah.
Hey, remember you outweigh the guy by 40 pounds.
I don't care what belt you're wearing. You're outweigh the guy by 40 pounds.
You have to take that into account. And it's like, okay.
And then if that kept going at that pace, I'd be like, all right, guys, you giving me an ulcer,
done, over.
Yeah.
Pick someone else, please.
I see, so you just stop up.
Yeah.
I'll stop, I do it all the time.
Yeah.
I'll probably do it like two or three times a class.
Oh, wow, okay.
You just seen me do it.
Yeah, I mean, it's,
I mean, this kind of goes to show how much attention you have to pay as a teacher.
And also, it's a good time for us to thank our sponsors.
Yes. Thank you very much, Drew, Jason and LaVon for sponsoring us.
Judo TV, discount coach Jintaro.
Tokyo Grand Slam is coming up, so definitely watch that.
Higashi brand. You guys could sponsor us too.
And you guys can have me at your gym for a seminar.
Easy peasy. Yeah, it's a boutique seminar
tailored to your needs. It's not going to be like a package
deal that you get from Walmart. So also, greens and
below, no drops. Oh,
oh you actually okay. It's kind of new. I don't think you explicitly like said
that when I was there. Yeah no drops green and below. No Tanya Toshi unless
you're two black belts. All these yeah rules. Yeah I see. If you go out of bounds
and touch the wall, mate. Yeah. You don't fight off the wall for safety purposes.
That was my favorite move. That's my favorite thing.
And then when you lift someone up, mate, put him down and you break away.
Yeah. Throw off the put down, right? Don't finish the suplex.
Yeah, you already know that's like, the hard part is done.
That's not risk.
Your brother got suplexed once.
Oh man, really?
Yeah.
I didn't see it.
I wasn't there, right?
No, no.
But he was like, they went out of bounds, they hit the wall.
He was walking back to the middle of the mat.
The guy ran up and grabbed him around the waist and suplexed him.
And that guy outweighed him by like 50 pounds.
But you know, that's the thing. It's self-preservation, right? Because David was under the assumption that the other guy was playing by those rules and that guy was new.
He came from a Sambo gym, and then he's new in the room. And David has a brown belt on.
So he thought, you know, I see.
Right, so this is one of those things,
I probably said something like,
all right, make sure weight discrepancies,
all these different things matter.
And then maybe I said, out of bounds,
maté, lifting, you don't finish suplex,
I probably said those things.
Yeah.
But maybe he wasn't listening to this guy.
Yeah, I mean,'s a for if yeah if the person is near like it, you know, it might be a lot
Yeah, and you know, maybe he was in the bathroom there and you know, but it's also I don't say David's responsibility
But to preserve himself and then always be attentive not assuming
Yeah, the guys gonna do something like that right out
of bounds touch the wall you know you're still kind of defensive okay okay okay
my thing my thing walk back to the mat maybe yeah like one thing you could do
to prevent such situations to be explicit like yeah instead of just kind
of like walking back you just make it clear to everyone that
that exchange is done. And then I'm like, let's reset or something.
I mean, it just,
Yeah.
And the other person was probably like frustrated
with David too.
Probably, yeah.
Yeah.
David's not easy to throw, so.
Yeah.
I mean, that's the thing.
It's a, you got it.
Yeah.
Emotions could run high.
And then as a sense say
you have to pay attention to these things and you can't it can't be perfect
you'll miss you know yeah so you have to the idea is to keep all this like
filters like no preservation you know mutual benefit all that and some of
these rules and you just minimize you can't be perfect you can't prevent
everything but you just want to minimize yeah and then doing semi run Dory 30% run Dory where
you're giving and taking and people are very very bad at this yeah very bad
because I did it the other day who was I going with I was like oh yeah we're
doing they was and I was like you know I just like I want to break a sweat and
ease into it and do a lot I Oh, I said that and I you know
Flow means flow. I mean, yeah guy immediately tried to pass my guard like full throttle. I'm like, oh my god, you know Like I'm retaining he's slipping the other way
And I was like, oh relax
You said that yeah, well, yeah trying to like relax. Yeah, I'm trying to go light. It's like, oh, I'm going light
I'm like, okay, he just doesn light. I'm like this guy can kick.
He needs a private lesson.
I mean, be like, listen, we're trying to exchange positions.
If you pass my guard, you're gonna let me regard.
And then if I go for a sweep, you're gonna let me sweep.
And then it's gonna be this back and forth thing
where it's like, it's very, very difficult for people to do,
especially with tachywasa.
It's like, hey, let's grip.
When you have an advantage, you'll enter some stuff,
not finish anything, right?
And then maybe I'll try to count on one or two things.
You're giving them problem solving things.
Here's two plus three, here's three times nine,
here's another problem.
Hands a little bit high, you know?
Let me attack from losing position.
And you're just kind of like trading problems.
That's what it should be.
It's problem solving while you're moving,
attacking the feet.
Think about this, attacking this side,
trying this, putting there.
You're trying to put these moves together.
I'm allowing you, because I know you're trying
this new thing, which you suck at,
because you've never done it before.
You're trying, that's why we're there.
Try to learn this new skill.
If I shut everything down and pull your head down
and throw you, we're not gonna develop these skills.
So having this like 30% back and forth problem solving round
where we're trying to figure things out,
that should be the bulk of your training for most people.
But most people are terrible at it.
Do you teach your students explicitly like how to do
this? Yeah I try to at least. Yeah. But it's not easy you know. Yeah. Not easy.
Yeah. Sometimes I'll do that in the class and then that lesson sort of sticks and
carries over to the next one and then there's guys who will pick each other
and then hey this is our thing, me and you. Yeah. You know. it's like, maybe I don't like how much heavier you are than me.
Maybe you have a thing about losing to a guy
that's smaller than you.
Maybe like we're gonna develop this friendship
where we're gonna do this kind of training
when we see each other.
And I have guys like that too, in jujitsu.
You know, not that I'm scared of anybody,
but it's like, you know, this guy is the guy that I go with
fourth or fifth a
Little bit tired. Yeah good cardio
Push the pace a little bit give and take we're both making each other better. It's a technical thing
Yeah, these guys were like no way these guys ever get an inch on maybe they got to beat his ass
You got to kind of cater your own training.
Yeah, yeah.
And then so it's like hard rounds, soft rounds, technical rounds, this guy's much more smaller
and lighter.
So this is I'm working on these things.
Everybody and then you know, it's like you got to cater like, all right, I didn't go
anywhere with any lefties today.
I got to go with some lefties.
You know what I'm lacking on the lefties. Today's gonna be a lefty themed day. I'm gonna try to get as many lefties in training today as
much as possible. So now little by little, you're filling that information gap in your game. You're
always looking at it from an introspective way and say, I need to fill it with these things.
I gotta work on that thing. Ochi finishing. Sometimes it's lacking. It's a little bit rusty.
finishing. Sometimes it's lacking. It's a little bit rusty. Let me enter Ochi. I'll say this. Let me enter. And then start from there kind of and then start from
there. But they're not trying to counter me or just resist the full call calls.
Yeah, they're letting me enter and then giving me different maneuvers so I can
learn to finish. Yeah, good training. That's good training.
And it's a, people should be in, should do this. And the environment, the sensei have to foster this environment where people feel comfortable doing this type of 30% Randoori too. I think it's a, everything has to come together yeah they think Vandori is Vandori yeah that's it it's not Vandori is a spectrum yeah like your sexuality yeah
yeah yeah yeah no but it's a spectrum yeah it's you can't yeah you can't go
like for competition prep you You can go very hard
But even then like yet you need some taper rounds, right?
taper rounds
Technical rounds. Yeah rounds against lefties
Rondori rounds where you just working on bailout stuff. Yeah, letting the guy out grip you go on Tomonage
Yeah, letting the guy out grip you go and drop Senagi. Letting the guy out grip you, shooting it on the leg.
Very technical.
One goal.
Yeah, that's how you think.
Yeah.
If you think about this, you can kind of create
safer indoor environments.
And it's not a competition.
It's the everyone, you're not trying to win
the Olympic medal, so yeah.
I mean, some of us are, but still, even then.
Even more important that you
pick and choose your rounds and develop your own yeah training well I mean I mean
in the sense that at the randori time during the randori time you're not gonna
win the medals exactly because no one's watching and it's not a sanctioned event
yeah and no one cares no one cares whether you win or lose in that practice,
except you.
Yeah.
And if you care, you're not really developing new stuff.
Yeah.
Cause your new stuff is always gonna suck
worse than your old stuff.
Yeah.
On the basis that it's new and you haven't really done it.
Yeah.
That's what it means, new.
You haven't done it, it's new.
Right.
So yeah.
So all in all, yeah, I think it's all,
it's your individually, they have to self-preservation,
protect each other, and the senseis have to,
everyone actually really is in the gym
has to
And then you know you want to do it as much as you want and then you then if if you want to do that You have to be safe. Yeah, and send this video to your coach
Yeah, send it to your coach
Send it and then that way this should be the standard and then
Sell your coach
