As a BJJ player, I have to say, the pass that Kashiwazaki shows starting at 5:12 is one of the best Half-Guard passes I've ever found. I use it all the time, on guys of every skill level.
You're right. The Kimura that we judokas use is called Ude Garami. The brazilian stared to use the name Kimura for that move because Masahiko Kimura used to break Helio Gracie's arm. To the BJJ comunity, if you put the oponent's arm down is a Kimura. If you put the arm up is an Americana.
@Louis I know it's been 3 years since you asked the question, but as I don't see an answer, here you go: Uke's top leg is pressing over tori's leg onto his own bottom leg. If you push the top leg, you put even more pressure and it becomes harder to pull out (you get more leverage, but the increased pressure makes you work twice as hard). But if you pull the top leg, the bottom leg can't follow because your knee is blocking it and so you create tons of space to pull your leg out.
we embarace the two arts but we like the fact that judo has "do" while the gracies have always been playing dirty and even using drugs to win fights (Sakuraba)
BJJ is not entirely newaza. The biggest change they made was to remove hold downs and ippon (win by throw). But like many sports, a small rule change can have a big effect on the way the game is played. Imagine how basketball would change if you allowed traveling.
Yep niju garami means double entanglement and it is not the regular half guard but the same as eddie bravo calls "lockdown" and others in BJJ call the "scorpion guard."
@MacFlanahan "Basically Just JuJitsu". Whatever BJJ still came from Judo. So it would make sense to say that, rather than Jujitsu cause it wasn't a direct descendant.
@MrBadabing1234 Creating pressure on the top leg's thigh makes it uncomfortable but mostly pulls it in the opposite direction of the bottom leg which gets pushed by tori's foot. Like tearing a piece of paper.
@GHRepresent lol man, you have to remember there are varying degrees of Black Belt. I've seen Black Belt Judo guys smash Blue belt BJJ, however I don't know what degree black belt he was.
I've been associating this in bjj to pass guard to side control. I feel that theres a sub to finish somewhere with his arm still trapped with his gi, any expert with ideas please much appreciated! Thank you!
By the way, for all of you supposed scholars on "the Origins of Judo/BJJ" How about instead of debating which one is better you embrace the two Martial Arts for what they are? We are all aware of where the 2 art forms came from. Everybody here has Wikipedia. just focus on keeping these arts prospering. You people do not impress anybody. A true Martial Artist doesn't slander other arts. They learn from them.
Can nyone tell me when this video was made. I'm a legit gracie bj blackbelt. I know Judo is the root and the extension. If this is pre year 20000 I'lll not be surprised, but there's no evidence to suggest this wasn't a response to bjj and posted like ten years ago. Show me the evidenve this is pre year 2000
Kashiwazaki became world champion in 1981. I trained with him in 1980. His newaza was unbelievable then. I saw him demonstrate several techniques he shows in this video. He also brought out a book before 2000. This video is not influenced by BJJ. It merely shows what this athlete practiced and what he did in his matches.
Why does every internet post have to degenerate back into a bad kung fu movie script "My style is better than yours " . Honestly it doesnt matter where the technique came from .It the technique that is important . Notice how he controls the far leg so the uke cant post his leg and sweep him over . Rey Garcia NYC BJJ ,Judo Instructor .
say what u want, but u and i and everyone knows that , on the ground no black belt judo guy can even test a blue belt in bjj. i have seen it enought times. so be honest. i don't hate judo. I am a judo player too.

I've always had a lot of difficulties passing the half guard... Finally, I have someone who shows the proper way to do it.

Kashiwazaki shows very good his moves in the dvd's that even not understanding japanese i have learned some of the moves
Interesting, I don't speek Japanese.. yet, I understand him. He's a great instructor.
Yeah, I was being sarcastic. I am sure some Gracie nut polisher will swear the Kashiwazaki learned from a BJJer.
this is very impressive info for the advance graplers...great post.
I really like too
correct! select again! "I'll stick with Marketing Ploys. For 50, Alex".

Actually the guy showing it is the famous Kashiwazaki...a Judoka with olympic experience and one mean Tomoenage (circle throw)

Nice video dude. Thanks for uploading. This is Jiu jitsu no kihon, very effective.
@jmatanane1979 He's still amazing to all of us. One the greatest and most technical Judo ne waza experts of all time.
excelente

Half guard is not a judo concern. That's why I ask.
plz it would be amazing with subtitles
So much detail. Wish I understood Japanese.

@warrennumber12
BJJ has no throws Judo has 64
@MacFlanahan Yes it did. - judoinfo.com
you should see the Kosen Judo half Guard Pass, but Sensei Kashiwazaki is one the greatest Judoka doing NEWAZA!
BJJ = Basically Just Judo ;-)
At least its ground portion...
can somebody explain why hes pulling on his grip on the leg instead of pushing it to free his leg?
MIN 8:25
this vid is making shit bricks.
isn't 2:16 basically a sweep position?
@MacFlanahan It's a joke mate. ;-)
Drop Bjj and train the Kosen Judo system, you will discover Lots of grownd pass you ever dream!
BJJ is Kosen-judo.
"Niju garami" stands for "half guard"?
Yes

I wonder which Gracie he learned this from?
