"Do not be afraid to get thrown." Best advice for beginner judo athletes.
Thanks for your comment!
Was told this last night….I was afraid to be thrown down and did hurt my back. Missed class tonight. 😀💪🏾 we try again tomorrow
so what do we love to get throw and enjoy the pain?
@@gshepherd6141 We resist and avoid being thrown. But we beginners, once we are being thrown, should not resist it by trying to twist out like Olympic athletes. We have to use our breakfalls, rolling smoothly across our backs. It gives our training partner a clean Ippon, and it is when we learn how not to be hurt when thrown.
@@GoDaveGo Respectfully understood, but sometimes the environment around you changes where it's not always safe to be thrown. Not to complicated things though, I do agree with techniques of reduction the friction of the throw to reduce the damage you take.
Just started judo. I am 57 years old. Thank you for this video. You give me confidence to continue!
dont give up brother, that's what martial arts is about. im proud of you
Great decision, my friend, you will not regret it. Judo is something you can do at almost any age and you will benefit physically and mentally (and maybe even spiritually) from regular training. Good luck on your new journey 🙂
Keep Going!
Thanks for your comment, and good luck on your Judo Journey🙏
Good for you! I'll be 57 in a couple of months as well.
I have a boxing background and I'm interested in Judo. Hearing that your right foot should be forward even if you're right-handed is so new to me.
i am a lifelong boxer and boxing coach, i have just started judo and also found this very different.
I’ve been boxing for 1.5 years and when I take Judo I’m planning to keep my left foot forwards since I already got the footwork.
Same here, I also found it strange!
I understand it feels strange at first for a boxer but the reason is that your stronger side needs to be closer to your partner / adversary as you need to get your grip on him and control / lead him. As a boxer you have a different perspective as you jab with your weaker side and throw your hard punch with momentum for which you need more space by turning your whole body. Hope this makes sense.
When I began boxing, I had a background of martial arts from when I was younger. My stance was naturally southpaw because of this. My jabs were so strong that they wondered why I wasn't boxing orthodox. I didn't either, I just did what felt right. I forced myself to box orthodox because of this. I can switch between both now. Martial arts still feels better with my right foot forward, but boxing feels better orthodox now.

I’m 28, just did my first class of Judo , I’m very exited , thank you so much for all the tips !
How is your judo training? I recently started karate and also starting Judo soon. Is it hard on the body or is it generally safe?
@@dominiknowaczyk9633 if I may weigh in on your situation, it can be super rough on the body. (Almost 2 years experience now) sore back and sore legs most often. Smacked the side of my head real hard on the receiving end of an uchi mata once.
Learn to relax and not be tense when thrown and try to tuck your chin to keep your head from doing a whiplash movement before landing and smacking against the mat. Easier said than done sometimes lol
Pay attention to the mechanics of your throws. The finest details can create the biggest difference in a beautiful well executed (and controlled) throw or a scary tangled mess that can hurt you and your partner.
Idk how sensei Shintaro feels about this, but I started to believe awhile back that falling properly is a big skill of its own.
Like as your partner is refining a throw as they toss you around, you are simultaneously refining your falling technique.
On a final note, efficiently learning judo can seem super boring sometimes (uchikomi) but the skills you gain are insanely handy when you start applying them. (Started BJJ recently, those guys had no idea what hit them til it was too late 🤣) good luck fam!
@@thejollyroger9281 ukemi seems to be a super big deal indeed. It actually saved my life a few months ago yo I'm not gonna be the one to disagree with you.
Thanks for your comment, and good luck on your Judo Journey🙏
Iv been doing judo for a week now and they haven’t touched on any of the basics, I’m glad we live in a time where this information can be found if you know here too look.
I hope drilling the basics daily will help me to catch up to and exceed others who have been training for much longer.
I'd like to know which of the fundamentals I mentioned you would like to improve on! Thanks for watching and sharing it!
All of them sir
Ma-ai, especially how to position yourself against a defensive opponent so you can get through the defence and throw them without getting countered.
Kumikata - ways to strengthen the grip. Thank you Sensei and happy new year 2022!
All of them! I think the blue ones need the most work for me.
I want to work on off balancing, as I'm quite good at using my legs, but not good at using my arms as much.
This is an absolutely fantastic video and much needed for my personal growth. I just began learning Judo six months ago at the age of 42 (43 now) and having exercises that I can use alone, at home, to help me learn faster is priceless. Thank you!
What are you using for judo-supportive exercises?
How are you coping with injuries/ wear and tear?
@@gibbsy-wd5nq Well, now I'm using a lot of the exercises found in this video. Prior to this I hadn't been given any exercises to do at home but had been doing Aikido (good for ukemi) for a year prior to beginning Judo. My kids are also in Judo and so I bought mats for home so we could practice and review together.
@@Andybaby I go a little easier than the younger students and mostly ignore the little stuff (bruises, sore muscles, friction burns, etc). But seeing people who suffer far worse injuries than myself and keep going serves as motivation to suck it up and carry on. Seeing people older than me and what they're still capable of also serves to motivate me to work through the bumps and bruises.
Wow, that's amazing! I'm about your age. I did some judo in college and train BJJ now.
I can't imagine putting my body through Judo now, but I guess I'm not training BJJ in the same way as the 20 year olds are now either 😂
Good training!
Oss
Thank you so much master, I am russian and 16 years old learning judo like 6 months and didn't knew such small things, now I know what I have to do, thanks again!
Thanks for your comment, and good luck on your Judo Journey🙏
@@shintaronakano2842 thank you!!
Momentum, weight transfer and changing angles... Good fundamentals to understand and learn!
I train BJJ but would love to one day train in Judo. What a fantastic art !
Most comprehensive and understandable system on Judo I've watched. I did a semester of Judo in college years ago and loved it, unfortunately there are no Judo Dojos near me. Your videos enable me to learn and train from home, thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
So well done!! Great Video!!
Wow. 10:00
There is a wealth of small details in the kuzushi for Osoto-gari.
1. His gaze direction (he watches 11 o'clock): 10:08
2. Contraction: The way he contract his limbs/body and put his weight in the counter-direction: 10:09
3. Expansion: Pulling partner off-balance sideways [the arm firmly 9 o'clock and towards belt. The lapel upwards] and a step in with bent knee and without planting his hail. 10:10
And he is lose at all times. I was impressed too. **loose not lose, typo
Excellent teaching! Thank you for sharing! 🙏
Thank you so much for the video - it’s so well put, it is a must to watch for all beginners!
Great video! Wow very simple to understand and follow.
Thank you so much for your content!!! I’m really enjoying to learn with you.
Great video, this was easier for me to understand than other judo videos. Thanks
Thank you very much Nakano Sensei! I learned a lot. The sabaki I have never visualized a box. That was a cool concept.
Great, informative video. Thank you!
I have been looking for exactly something like this video, and very glad I found it! Excellent tutorial that convinced me to subscribe and see the rest of the channel! Thanks . . .
Excellent video, thanks!
thank you, this is gold!
best judo introduction video, thank you
Great presentation! Thank you sir.
This brings some fond memories when I was 19. It's weird that I can still remember some of the techniques of Judo, even when I haven't practiced it so long.

This video helped me so much, I have been training judo for about 6 months now, and I had only 3 ippons in randori, but after working on the 6 principles, I got 3 throws off in 1 day of randori amazing!!!
Also I hardly got thrown, but I always used to before this video.
@@oscar-wi3tj Thank you for your comment! I'm glad to hear this video helped your judo!
Great video, thank you for making it!
You're welcome! Thanks for your comment!
Thank you for this information.
Merci pour la vidéo , très instructif
Thank you ever so much for this video. Learned lots from it.
This is such a good video. Thank you! I just signed up for judo this month to add to my Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. So much additional depth in something not trained in depth the other art. Love it
Thanks for your comment and support!
Thank you for teaching us😊
After 11 years I'm about to start with Judo again. Thanks for the summary/ lesson and the motivation!

As someone who has just started judo (1 month), I can confirm that your tutorials are very important and vital for starting this sport. I really appreciate you and I hope you all the success.🙏
Thanks for your comment and support!
@@shintaronakano2842 you're welcome 😊
I'm soon going to a judo competition and I want to make me and my family proud by giving them a medal. This really helped and it means a lot to me thank you! 🥰
Edit - I won the gold medal! ❤
Did you get it

Great video🤙🏻
Thanks for your comment and support!
Thanks so much!
Why didn't i have a coach like you, when i did judo?((
Brilliant instuctions as usual. Thank you!
Btw What do you think about new IJF rules? In my opinion, judo is being degraded due to prohibition of techniques.
You're welcome! Thanks for your comment! It is sad to see some great judo techniques disappear after developing.
Thank you for this video
that's awesomee senseii
Fantastic vidéo. Thank you very much Sensei
My pleasure! Thanks for your comment!
I like that this video has lots of context rather than just showing each skill in isolation. It makes it easier to grasp the entire picture.
Furthermore, the demonstrations you showed were very thoughtful and useful in explaining the details. Thank you!
Glad you liked it! Thanks for your comment and support!
Keep bringing such beginner friendly videos. Thanks.
Thanks for your comment and support!
Thank you Sensei.
Thanks!
Thank you very much for your donation Loren! It makes me more motivated to create more contents for you. Thanks again!
Thank you for making it transparant. I a. 47 years old and I will begin my first class soon. Especially kuzushi made a lot of sense why throws or sweeps work or not greetings from Holland
Thank you very much!
Talking from experience:
Judo -> gentle way
Kata -> basic form (learning)
Randori -> free style (sparring) practice
When you are learning, learn... don't try to teach... you are student. "No mind."
When sensei is teaching, listen/focus/learn.
When you learn, there is no "win". There is only learn. You get hurt (lose), you hurt others (lose), you don't learn (lose today (waste time) and tomorrow (didn't learn, do today again)) Learning is everyday, forever! Rank is nothing, a winner is prepared so there is no fight or injury.
Don't focus on anything but here and now. (Yesterday is gone, tomorrow is not here yet).
Thanks for your comment!
@@shintaronakano2842 hai! Yes, don't lose hope, teachers of Kano Jigoro are needed now more ever!
@@shintaronakano2842>If there is effort, there is always accomplishment.
>Face your fear, empty yourself, trust your own voice, let go of control, have faith in outcomes, connect with a larger purpose, derive meaning from the struggle.
>Nothing under the sun is greater than education. By educating one person and sending him into society of his generation, we make a contribution extending a hundred generations to come.
>The purpose of the study of judo is to perfect yourself and to contribute to society.
>To ask may be a moment's shame, not to ask and remain ignorant is a lifelong shame.
>Judo is the way to the most effective use of both physical and spiritual strength. By training you in attacks and defenses it refines your body and your soul and helps you make the spiritual essence of judo a part of your very being. In this way you are able to perfect yourself and contribute something of value to the world. This is the final goal of judo discipline.
>Paradoxically, the man who has failed and one who is at the peak of success are in exactly the same position. Each must decide what he will do next, choose the course that will lead him to the future.
>Consider fully, act decisively.
>In an argument, you may silence your opponent by pressing an advantage of strength or of wealth, or of education. But you do not really convince him. Though he is no longer saying anything, in his heart he still keeps his opinion, the only way to make him change that opinion is to speak quietly and reasonably. When he understands that you are not trying to defeat him, but only to find the truth, he will listen to you and perhaps accept what you tell him.
>The pine fought the storm and broke. The willow yielded to the wind and snow and did not break. Practice jiu-jitsu in just this way.
>Walk a single path, becoming neither cocky with victory nor broken with defeat, without forgetting caution when all is quiet or becoming frightened when danger threatens.
>Judo helps us to understand that worry is a waste of energy.
>Carefully observe oneself and one's situation, carefully observe others, and carefully observe one's environment.
>Before and after practicing judo or engaging in a match, opponents bow to each other. Bowing is an expression of gratitude and respect. In effect, you are thanking your opponent for giving you the opportunity to improve your technique.
>Apply just the right amount of force -- never too much, never too little.
>Judo should be free as art and science from any external influences, political, national, racial, and financial or any other organized interest. And all things connected with it should be directed to its ultimate objective, the benefit of humanity.
>The teaching of one virtuous person can influence many; that which has been learned well by one generation can be passed on to a hundred.
>Judo teaches us to look for the best possible course of action, whatever the individual circumstances.
>For one thing, judo in reality is not a mere sport or game. I regard it as a principle of life, art and science. In fact, it is a means for personal cultural attainment.
>Judo is a study of techniques with which you may kill if you wish to kill, injure if you wish to injure, subdue if you wish to subdue, and, when attacked, defend yourself.
>There are people who are excitable by nature and allow themselves to become angry for the most trivial of reasons. Judo can help such people learn to control themselves. Through training, they quickly realize that anger is a waste of energy, that it has only negative effects on the self and others.
>In randori we teach the pupil to act on the fundamental principles of judo, no matter how physically inferior his opponent may seem to him, and even if by sheer strength he can easily overcome him; because if he acts contrary to principle his opponent will never be convinced of defeat, no matter what brute strength he may have used.
>In randori we learn to employ the principle of maximum efficiency even when we could easily overpower an opponent.
>In randori, one must search out the opponent's weakness and be ready to attack with all the resources at his disposal the moment the opportunity presents itself, without violating the rules of judo.

Thank you Sensei ❤️
Thank you so much for this 😊🙏
Thanks for your comment and support!
I’ve been doing boxing and muay thai for 16 years now, and I’ve been wanting to learning Judo as I think it’s be a better combination with those styles than BJJ. Watching this video confirms my theory, the fact that the base posture and footwork is almost identical to boxing, pretty much indicates it’s the perfect combination.
But he's saying that a right hander should fight 'southpaw' and vice-versa, which is very different.
@@edwardburroughs1489 I understand which is also a principle used in boxing a lot. Most people believe the "power hand" should go on the back, but I personally disagree. I'm right handed and fight south paw, I feel it better to have your dominant hand in front for a better jab (most important punch) and more controlled defense being able to parry easier. Also, there's tons of boxers out there who have a stance with their dominant hand forward ie Oscar De La Hoya, Miguel Cotto, Vasyli Lomachenko, etc...
@@Jandro1083a good fighter can fight dominant and southpaw, of course as a right handed person I'm more comfortable fighting traditional, but when fighting or sparring, it's easy to get turned around, so you should be able to effectively transition and at least defend and jab in non-dominant or southpaw/traditional stance.
As a beginner.. I really learn lot of techniques in this video..thank you so much..plx don't skip this video.
Lots of love from Kashmir
As a 42 year old adult, I was never taught ANY of this. We just proceeded through Dai Ikkyo. After I made my first belt rank, I became discouraged, because everyone else was a younger judoka who had dreams of competition and a very aggressive attitude that seemed counter to what I had believed Judo was to be. You seem like a good Sensei, the one that I wish I had thirty years ago.
Thanks for your comment and support!
Best judo video every beginners should watch. I wish i had a teacher like you.
Thanks for your comment!
Thank you for the lesson, Sensei.
I've always wanted to study Judo
Thank you for the video ! I wanted to start judo but now I’m sure !
You should! Thanks for your comment!
we all need a master like you ❤
Thank you sir, for the excellent instruction. This is very helpful for the covid lockdown. Thanks again.
You're welcome! Thanks for your comment!
You summarized the fundamental concepts of judo in just over 20 minutes, very good!!
And your english is very clear too
Please, keep on making videos like this, thank you 👏👏💪👏👏🥋
I will try my best! Thanks for your comment!
Excelente!!!
A really great video about fondamentals in starting Judo. Thank you so much.
Glad you liked it! Thanks for your comment!
My plesure.
@@shintaronakano2842
Glad I found your channel. Been doing BJJ but been wanting to learn more judo throws
More to come! Thanks for your comment!
I've recently started training in judo about a month, but during randori, my ankle got injured (badly sprained) and it has been over 3 weeks, pain didn't really go away. But, I love judo and couldn't just stop training. I went back yesterday and it was worth the pain. Haha. I started reading about judo (the fundamentals/ techniques) without illustrations, so coming to videos like this are helpful. Thanks.
Glad it helped! Thanks for your comment!
Not just for beginners. I'm a 1st kyu, not a very confident one. This is great. Thank you.
Fundamentals, by their very name "fundamental" are never for just beginners, they should be practiced daily and always reinforced. Many people forget the fundamentals because they're typically not fun or cool, but forget them and pay the price!
Thank you so much for this Nakano-sensei
You're welcome and thanks for your comment!
Thank you very much Sensei. Student from Sydney, Australia.
...or refreshing the memory ...as you go for the exam...thank you for this class. Like the presentation ! Oss.
You're welcome! Thanks for your comment!
Thanks for the training and my fav part in the vid is the asmr lol
Thankyou so much...
awesome stuff, know what to drill now at home:)
Thanks for your comment and support!
You are good at explaining things. I started Judo two weeks ago. It's all shiny and new and exciting, but I know nothing.
Thank you so much master 🙏🙏🙏
I'm starting Judo soon (I'm 14) I'm very excited but also nervous as I've never done a martial art (I did karate for a while when I was 7) and this helped a lot,thank you
I enjoyed this video
Thank you sensei that was really helpful.
The infographic in the thumbnail is really good.
Can you tell me where to get the image?
Man I took free Judo lessons when I was stationed in Yokosuka, Japan. The Sensei was about 60, 5' and 130. I was a 25 year old boxer and he could throw me and all of the other young guys like ragdolls! Koroda-san was a bad dude!
Great class! Congratulations from Brazil!
Thanks for your comment from Brazil!
I like the idea
Good advice.
Glad it was helpful!
@@shintaronakano2842 I have wanted to put a square on my floor for some time, and, have done those stancing movements for over 25 years. What would be the best length for the sides be? Would it be best to make the sides the length that is equal to the spread of my hips, where the femur attaches to the pelvis, or, the widest part of the pelvis? It does seem that one can determine their most stable AND fluid neutral stance, merely by experimenting the width, and, then, doing the movement drills, but, what length would you deem as being "ideal?" Thanks again for this video- you break down and illustrate the foundational basics very well! IMO, one must always keep a solid understanding of the foundational basics, no matter what level they are.
Wow Best judo fundamental video I have ever watched , It's easy clear logical and important , I'm not a Beginner but also learn a lot.
Hope you enjoyed! Thanks for your comment!
thanks for this video i am 18 years old and i just started judo and i am really learning a lot and my dream is to be in the top of this sport i have a long way to go but i will work hard for it
Wonderful
Thankyou sensei for the throwing knowledge now I can use t in my karate 🥋
Thanks for your comment!
