Probably their founders, who were they, and what were they all about?
By the way explain the difference of the two arts.|||JUDO KIYUZO MIFUNE not the founder of judo but probably the best who ever lived.Master of the %26quot;empty gi%26quot;as in wrestling with him was like trying to throw or arm lock an empty gi.Used your technique to beat you one mistake and you were done.He weighed on his best day maybe 140 pounds .They said his opponents who often outweighed him by a 100 pounds looked like elephants trying to throw a butterfly.
JIUJUTSU dont know but the GRACIES father%26#039;s teacher who was expert at both methods according to them was pretty formidable.
Classical jiujutsu is more about defending against knives clubs kicking and punching than grappling a battlefield art not sport.
The nastier stuff was taken out and removed by KANO to form JUDO and he even added 2 or 3 european wrestling moves and emphasized equal attention be given to ground work.|||All the people mentioned are indeed great but a few were great in specialazations within the art not the entire art.

|||Judo(Gene lebell) Because of the fight between him and Milo Savage! He was also a champion in the art!Trained Gokor Chivichiean who is a great grappler!
Jujitsu (Helio Gracie) was a tough master at his time! Some judo guy name Kimura bet him though! Even a move is named after Helio Gracie%26#039;s opponent Kimura!
There%26#039;s allot more but these are the ones on the top of my mind! There both almost the same! Only thing is that depending which Jujitsu(Brazilian,Japanese) One will have more ground Grappling! Judo I seen has more better takedowns in my opinion! They could fight in the guard too but they don%26#039;t do leg locks usually! Also They don%26#039;t usually Stress ground fighting much! They stress throwing more than anything usually! It makes sense though! How else are you going to take it to the ground? There versed in submissions too! To see the difference you%26#039;ll have to watch them on the ground fighting!|||I don%26#039;t know about greatest, but here are a few really good ones.
Joe Holck
Wally Jay
Helio Gracie
Frank Ordonez

These are some of the greats of Judo and Jujitsu.|||I think the best Judo fighter ever was Anton Geesink from Holland. He was a three time world champ and even won the olympic gold medal in Judo at the Tokoyo games in front of a very hostile Japenese crowd.

Why is Judo in the olympics rather than other martial arts?
Why was Judo chosen?|||Because it%26#039;s a SPORT martial arts style.
You can%26#039;t have Krav Maga for example compete. Since they are self defense styles, or martial styles, they can not be used in friendly competition.
Because they use techniques which goes against the rules. Almost all of the styles use eye gouges and groin grabs and such other techniques. They%26#039;d just look the same if they cut those techniques. It would just look like an ordinary kick-boxing match.|||Having competed in the Olympic trials one year in TKD as well as having some prior experience with this I can tell you a couple of reasons why I think. First, Judo was a sport that had standardized weight classes, standardized rules, and a standard format for judging and scoring. They also had a standard format for training judges and referees and since it was practiced all over the world in the 50s and 60s it made it into the Olympics. TKD has followed much the same path and that is one of the reasons why it also made it into the Olympics. Karate with its various styles, organizations, and factions can%26#039;t and couldn%26#039;t agree on things or come to a resolution on these things and so they were left out and continue to be for that reason.
That may change in the near future since there has been a strong movement to put it into the Olympics mounted again and an International conference took place earlier this year with some Olympic committee officials in attendance. That and the fact that the Olympic committee only requires a simple majority for something to be added now instead of the three fourths majority they used to require may get it in. They feel at this time that they are within about a dozen votes of having a simple majority at this time.|||The main reason is because the Japan was hosting the %26#039;64 Olympics and wanted a Japanese sport in it.
More generally, sports looking to get into the Olympics need:
To be played by people across the world. (I believe in theory there should be multiple countries in with a chance of medals; doesn%26#039;t always work that way but there you go.)
To have an international governing body, and established ruleset.
To have people willing to lobby the IOC to get in. That%26#039;s basically what it comes down to: politics. Also, there%26#039;s only a max of 28 sports (26 next time in London) allowed at any Olympics and quite a few of those (athletics, swimming, football, etc.) aren%26#039;t going anywhere, so getting into the Olympics requires years of work by some organization willing to put in the effort. Judo got in back when it was less cutthroat; TKD got in because of years of effort and promotion by the South Korean government.
Finally, don%26#039;t expect any more combat sports in the Olympics anytime soon. Reportedly, the IOC feels they have enough, and there have even been some suggestions of dropping boxing because it%26#039;s too %26#039;violent%26#039;. *sigh*|||Cause it%26#039;s more sporty than other styles. I personally don%26#039;t really consider a MA a sport, but that%26#039;s just me. Tournaments are good, sporting events involving martial arts are just funny to me. They don%26#039;t capture the spirit of martial arts.|||You moron, you speak as if judo is the only %26#039;martial%26#039; art in the Olympics. There is validity in wrestling, boxing, tae kwon do, wand wu shu in addition to judo in regard to martial science.
Why not judo?, I rebuddle.|||Because it is a competitive sport... like wrestling or boxing. Taekwondo was also in the last Olympics. Most of the %26quot;do%26quot; arts have evolved into sports.

Is judo effective in a street fight?
Which do you think is more effective in a street fight - Karate or judo?|||Karate is far better for a street fight.
You can fight multiple opponents. You can run away if needed. Judo typically brings you to the ground 鈥?a bad place for a street fight. And most importantly you can keep you adversary from getting a hold of you. They may be stronger or more skilled, but the only way to test this exposes you to great harm if you are out classed.
That said, Judo still has many, many redeeming values beyond practicality in a street fight.|||judo can be effective in a self defence situation but karate is better in my opinion because it is more well rounded.for anyone to effectively defend themselves they need to crosstrain in stand up and ground/grappling.|||For a well trained athlete, Judo might be superior because the rules of the competition require competing to the end instead of restarting after every point. This is a little closer to real life.
For an office jockey, Karate might be superior because a guy who can do 500 pushups, 500 situps, and run 10 miles probably doesn%26#039;t have any harder knuckles, knees, elbows, or shins than the guy who hasn%26#039;t worked out in a year.
In both sports though, most dojos teach self defense in addition to the sport - so someone trained in either style would probably be very able at defending themselves.|||call 911 you sound like a Puss.|||Once you get inside, Judo is very effective, you just have to be able to close in and get a grip.
Karate is better at a distance, and if you take Kenpo, that will help you even more, as some classes teach some basic grappling as well.
Combining the two styles would be best, Karate or another striking art from the distance, and Judo up close.|||neither, I would give an edge to Judo since most fights go to the ground at some point though.|||Yes, it%26#039;s effective as you learn effective takedowns, and ground grappling rivaling to jiu-jitsu (and one point in time, judo and jiu-jitsu were interchangeable words).
As far as being more effective than karate, that%26#039;s debatable, it would depend on the style of karate.
Against a kyokushin karateka it%26#039;d be tough, against a shidokan karateka I wouldn%26#039;t bet on it.|||Yes.
Almost every time I walk through Boston Common I use JUDO to defend myself against some crack head.|||Judo, but you must close the gap with a few strikes, once in the clinch a judo fighter with equal experience to the Karate fighter will dominate.

What's the difference between Judo and BJJ ?
are they similar? is Sambo similar to judo and BJJ?|||The short answer is that judo is great on throws, less good on groundwork, while BJJ is great on groundwork, not so good on throws. Judo also tends to be cheaper and easier to find.
- The long answer:
Judo was founded by Jigoro Kano in Japan, who had studied various styles of jiu-jitsu in the late 19th century. He realised that the big problem with what he had learned was the training methodology. That resulted in Kano instituting a focus on %26#039;randori%26#039; (live sparring), along with %26#039;shiai%26#039; (a form of sanctioned competition). Kano also removed the so-called %26#039;deadly%26#039; techniques from the jiu-jitsu he had studied (things like eye-gouges, groin strikes etc), which made randori and shiai much more viable.
That had the end result of considerably increasing efficacy: because those early judoka (judo practitioner) could train %26#039;non-deadly%26#039; (in the sense that you don%26#039;t have to fully crank an armbar, lock on a choke etc, as your opponent has the option of tapping before serious damage) techniques full-contact, they became highly proficient, and in fact more %26#039;deadly%26#039; than their non-sparring contemporaries in what might be called %26#039;self-defence%26#039; orientated styles. As John Danaher puts it in Mastering Jujitsu, %26quot;the deadly techniques favored by so many traditional martial arts have only a theoretical deadliness with little practical deadliness.%26quot; (pp17-19). For more, see my historical summary:
http://slideyfoot.blogspot.com/1982/06/h...
Since Kano%26#039;s innovations, judo has grown to become one of the biggest martial arts in the world today. There have also been changes to the average judo club%26#039;s syllabus: thanks in large part to its inclusion in the Olympics, high amplitude throws are now the main focus of judo (as that is what wins competitions: the rules are geared toward throwing your opponent rather than grappling them on the ground). This means there is less time for %26#039;newaza%26#039; (groundwork), although a good judo school will try to divide teaching equally between %26#039;tachiwaza%26#039; (throws) and newaza. Most importantly, judoka still train randori against fully resisting opponents, so they get that essential feedback on whether their technique is effective or not.
A judoka, Mitsuyo Maeda (he%26#039;s known by various names, but that%26#039;s the most common), brought the art to Brazil in the early 20th century, where he taught it to the Gracie family. At the time, the name %26#039;judo%26#039; wasn%26#039;t set in stone, with people still referring to Kano%26#039;s style as things like %26#039;Kano jiu-jitsu%26#039;. Hence in Brazil, the term %26#039;jiu-jitsu%26#039; stuck.
From judo, the Gracies developed their own variation of the style, which has become known as Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (in Brazil, its normally just referred to as %26#039;jiu-jitsu%26#039;). Unlike judo, BJJ focused more on groundwork, so the evolution of the sport went in the other direction, with highly developed groundfighting, but less attention to throws. BJJ also retained the approach to live rolling, so as in judo, you test your technique against fully resisting opponents.
Judo has spread all across the world over the course of the 20th century, so there are numerous high level judoka teaching pretty much everywhere. That means that supply is high compared to demand, so you can normally find good quality judo relatively cheap. BJJ, on the other hand, has only got going internationally since Royce Gracie showed his stuff in UFC 1 back in 1993. BJJ instructors are therefore far less common, meaning that its a lot more expensive than judo (unless you%26#039;re in Brazil, in which case BJJ has been there since 1925, so less costly).
If you can, its ideal to train both judo and BJJ, as that way you get great takedowns combined with awesome groundwork. However, if you have to choose between one or the other, your decision should depend on whether you prefer standing up or staying on the ground. Also, judo is usually more formal than BJJ, so if you don%26#039;t like bowing and using Japanese terminology, judo may be a bad idea. They%26#039;re both great grappling styles: for more info, see the Bullshido.com summaries on judo and BJJ.

- SAMBO
SAMBO is a Russian system which also evolved from judo, which was initially popularised by Vasili Sergevich Oshchepkov. He opened the first judo club in Russia in 1914, and also organised the first judo competition in 1932. The Leningrad Sport Committee prohibited a competition between the Moscow and Leningrad judo teams in 1936, which Oshchepkov protested. Unfortunately for him, that led to his arrest as a %26#039;Japanese spy%26#039;: he later died under suspicious circumstances in prison.
In 1938, Anatoli Arcadievich Kharlampiev took the hint and came up with %26#039;Soviet freestyle wrestling%26#039;, which was basically judo under a new name, modified under the influence of a few native wrestling styles. That was then renamed to SAMBO, which is short for SAMozashcita Bez Oruzhiya, meaning %26quot;self defence without weapons%26quot;.
It differs from judo and BJJ in its focus on lower-body submissions, and also in that you aren%26#039;t allowed to use chokes (although I don%26#039;t think that is true for all SAMBO schools, and there is also something called %26#039;combat SAMBO%26#039;). In adition, SAMBO does not use the same training equipment: practitioners wear shoes, a jacket (called a %26#039;kurtka%26#039;, comparable to a gi top) and shorts rather than a gi.|||Emphasis. BJJ developed more of the ground fighting aspect (it was based on the Judo being taught by Matsuyo Maeda who was apparently very well known for his groundwork skills), whereas Judo today tends to have more of the throwing (since this tends to be the easiest way to score Ippon).

Will a person have ANY advantages switching to Judo after many years of training Karate?
Not in terms of fitness, but technique.|||Over a complete amateur? Sure. Your reflexes will be sharper, your mind will be clearer in a fight, you will be less averse to danger, you will be more resistant to pain, you will have a set of movements ready for use in emergency (for a Karate practitioner, probably a fairly large repertoire of kata)...there will be tons of advantages. Many of your techniques will not carry over directly, but the core martial artist will still be there. If you have trained your mind to Karate, it should be easier to train it to Judo than if you were starting from scratch.|||I had spent 12 years studying traditional Karate when I became interested in Judo so I decided to give it a shot. It was great for strength training and cardio as well as rounding of the grappling and throws we trained in when I did Karate. I feel the compliment each other very well and will definitely give you an advantage when performing kumite or randori against another person especially in close ranges. Today I teach both at my dojo and they are separate but yet used together in our school. Our students enjoy the Judo classes as breaks from hard core karate training. Good luck.|||You%26#039;ll have a well-rounded knowledge of both striking and grappling techniques.|||Yeah... you%26#039;ll be a lot better at throws, submission holds, and ground fighting. Pretty big advantage.|||Yes.
How Do I Judo Flip People in MGS3 Snake Eater?
i already know how to snap peoples necks and slit their throats but im having trouble flipping people.I did it once to some random officer but cant remember how i did it!
please tell me how!|||run up from behind and push ur CQC button and ur should flip them|||You shove the left stick towards him as you press the circle button. Make sure you have him in the grab first.
Remember, this game is very pressure-sensitive, so if you keep just jamming on the circle button as hard as you can, you will have a lot of slit throats.

Whats the difference between TaeKwon Do, Karate, Judo and Kickboxing???
Hi
i wanted to know the differences between TaeKwon do, karate, Judo and Kick boxing. i live in sydney and i am a 15 year old boy, i dont know about any of these martial arts and i want to learn one of them... which ONE do you think is the BEST for me and what is it about !?!?!?!? is there any other better one????|||All styles have strengths and weaknesses, and there will be similarities in several styles.
Here is a breakdown:
Judo - Olympic sport, opponents are more engaged with each other and try to use leverage and balance to throw their opponent. Judo is closer to wrestling, there are no punches, no kicks, all throws. You are mostly standing until you are thrown. After a throw, you usually get back up and start over.
Karate - Karate originates in Okinawa, but many styles were adopted and modified in Japan. There are many different types of Karate (Shotokan, Gen-wa-ki, Kempo, Kenpo, Kyokoshin, Goju, Isshin-Ryu). Karate also usually incorporates weapons training into it%26#039;s system using the traditional Budo weapons (Staff, Nunchaku, Tonfa, Kama, Sai). Empty hand Karate utilized punches and kicks and the training usually involves serious %26quot;toughening%26quot; of your entire body.
Tae Kwon Do - TKD is almost like 3 different martial arts. TKD comes from Korea. It is is an official Olympic sport and some TKD practitioners train exclusively in this version of the art. TKD is also a practical self defense system that is utilized by the Korean military and secret police. It is often taught in conjunction with another Korean martial art called Hapkido, which uses small joint (wrist, fingers, ankles) manipulation and submission tactics. There are also different types of TKD, such as Moo Du Kwan or Han Mu Kwan. One of the unique things about TKD is that they have a global governing body that unifies all of the forms (Poomse or Kata) and standards required for promotion. So let%26#039;s say you are a blue belt or %26quot;5th Geup%26quot; in Korea, you are learning the exact same form as a blue belt in California, or Europe, or anywhere else in the world. TKD is also unique in that it%26#039;s ratio of kicking techniqes to hand techniqes is about 80% kicking to 20% hand techniques.
Kickboxing will have similar kicks to Tae Kwon Do and Karate, but will have hand techniques like regular boxing. While all of these are sports, and have sporting aspects, the other 3 will also incorporate %26quot;self defense%26quot; in their curriculums, whereas a pure kickboxing school will only teach you how to fight, not necessarily how to get out of a hold, etc. Some kickboxing places will also have a self defense component, but it will vary from place to place.
I don%26#039;t know anything about you, so which one is best for you is really up to you. If they are all available in your area, try them all out for a few weeks and then choose the one YOU like the best.

What's the difference between Judo, Karate, and Kung Fu?
Try looking them up on youtube.
Karate (Empty Hand) is a japanese martial art originating from Okinawa. It is defensive and includes kata, punching, blocking, kicking, etc.
Judo (Gentle way), is from Japan and originated from Japanese jujitsu. Today, it is practiced as a sport, much like Kendo is practiced as the sport of swordfighting, judo focuses on the throwing/grappling aspects of japanese jujitsu. It can be used in self defense, and is considered a martial art.
Kung Fu is of Chinese origin. Don%26#039;t know too many specifics about it, except that it includes kata and uses many animal forms, as well as weapons. But I reckon it depends on the school.|||First let me say that Karate is not from Japan...... It is true that there are styles from Japan, but Karate came from Okinawa. It was introduce to Japan in the early 1900%26#039;s. There are many different styles of karate in Okinawa and Japan. They vary in emphasis, but all have strikes, punches and kicking techniques. Judo is from Japan an is only a little more than 100 years old. It was created by Dr. Kano from jujitsu. Jujitsu is self-defense that uses throws, joint locks, chokes and some strikes. Judo was created as a sport. Basically the main difference in judo and jujitsu is that Dr. Kano left out some of the more dangerous techniques to create a sport. However Judo can still be dangerous. Kung-Fu in a generic term for many styles of Chinese martial arts. It is estimated that there are between 300 and 400 different types/styles of Kung-Fu in China. It uses strikes, kicks, throws and joint locks. Some styles also incorporate weapons into the training. It would take several large books to explain in greater detail but this is basically what you asked.
Hope this helps!|||Martial Arts has many different styles and these are just a few of them. Judo is all about close combat and grappling(wrestling) to submit the opponent of it could be used for self-defence.Karate litterally means empty hand in Japanese, it originated from Japan and there are many style of Karate, for example I study Go Ju Kai, there are hundreds of types and we study kata, self defence, Sparring, Bunkai, and others. Kung Fu originates from china and is all about how to react quickly. This was originally created to protect yourself from samauri%26#039;s with practically anything|||Judo originated in Korea, and is mostly based on throws, using your opponents own body weight and momentum against them.
Karate is more of a striking, attacking martial art which originated from Japan. Karate is often meshed in with Tae Kwon-Do (from Korea, like Judo and Hapkido), simply cuz Americans know the term karate better than Tae Kwon-Do. Most american %26quot;karate%26quot; schools actually teach t.k.d.; cuz it%26#039;s more defensive (and thus more real-world applicable) than traditional karate.
Kung Fu originated in China, and is much more of a show art than a fighting art. Don%26#039;t get me wrong- of course there are many useful and even lethal techniques in kung-fu; but there%26#039;s also alot of wasted movement. It looks really awesome to see kung-fu masters doing all the flip-kick, crouching tiger, circus-type moves; but in reality- they have little or no practical application. That%26#039;s why the great Bruce Lee took everything that was useful from kung-fu, eliminated everything wasteful, and created Jeet Kun-Do. Unfortunately- due to Lee%26#039;s untimely death, there still aren%26#039;t many Jeet Kun-Do instructors and/or schools around, so it%26#039;s still not considered a %26quot;major%26quot; martial art, and prob. never will be. I def. wouldn%26#039;t advise challenging someone who knows Jeet Kun-Do; cuz that means they were more or less trained by (prob someone trained by) Bruce lee himself. So if there is a superior martial art, I%26#039;d have to say Jeet Kun-Do; though it will prob. never reach the popularity of karate and t.k.d... hope that answers your question.|||judo is mostly throws, karate is self-defense, and kung fu is based on the reactions|||Mainly they r just in different parts of the world.|||i%26#039;m insulted

What is with that judo chop thing they do in the movies on peoples backs to knock them out?
is that for reals, or what is the deal with that?|||It is called comedic artistic license, the same thing they use to create a character like Austin Powers, Fat Barstard, Dr. Evil, Fem Bots, and Austin%26#039;s %26quot;mojo%26quot;, whiich is what gives Austin Powers his, well, Power. Consider the following possible exchange in the writers room:
%26quot;So, I%26#039;ve got a great idea for a movie.%26quot;
%26quot;Yeah, what%26#039;s that?%26quot;
%26quot;There%26#039;s this guy, see, and he is a British Secret Agent in the swingin%26#039; 60%26#039;s, right?%26quot;
%26quot;Go on.%26quot;
%26quot;Well, he is cryogenically frozen...%26quot;
%26quot;Excuse me? He%26#039;s What??%26quot;
%26quot;Cryogenically frozen. He was the best agent the Brtish Secret Service had ever had, and he stopped all the crime in the world, in cluding the nefarious Dr. Evil...%26quot;
%26quot;Who?!?%26quot;
%26quot;Dr. Evil, dude. Stop Interrupting!! Anyway, so they wanted to preserve him in case Dr. Evil ever came back, so they froze him, but he didn%26#039;t die...he just sort of...HIBERNATED.%26quot;
%26quot;Um, okay, sounds good so far...%26quot;
%26quot;So anyway, Dr. Evil wasn%26#039;t actually killed, he just blasted off into outer space in this Big Boy shaped rocket ship...%26quot;
%26quot;Why Big Boy?%26quot;
%26quot;I dunno, because Foghorn Leghorn wasn%26#039;t cool enough, okay?!?%26quot;
%26quot;Okay, geez, just asking...%26quot;
%26quot;ANYWAY, Dr. Evil came back in the future, and while he was gone, his right hand man Number 2 -SHUT UP, DON%26#039;t SAY A WORD!! - had created a time travel machine, and so Doctor Evil decides to go back in time and steal Austin Powers%26#039; Mojo from him while he%26#039;s frozen....WHAT NOW??%26quot;

%26quot;I suppose not.%26quot;
%26quot;GOOD. Glad you agree...sheesh - so, he goes through the 60%26#039;s and judo chops everyone in his way until he get%26#039;s his mojo back, and drops kicks Mini-me in the process.%26quot;
%26quot;Mini-me??%26quot;
%26quot;Yeah Mini-me. Frau Frueline - DR. EVIL%26#039;S SECRET LOVER before you ask - kinda perfected the cloning process, and created a miniature Dr. Evil while Dr. Evil was frozen, and he is Dr. Evils%26#039; sidekick.%26quot;

its very much fake. As Ray has said its based on the Shuto (knife hand) strike seen in modern jujutsu and karate.

William shatner rounded it off using the two hand version!

idai|||Actually, it%26#039;s not as unusual as most think. I used to read a lot of pulp fiction novels back in high school and college(still do, but not as much today) and I have read about judo chops in lots of novels back in the 70s, probably due to the authors%26#039; unfamiliarity with the martial arts during that era. I think I have even read about judo chops in a book from the Hardy Boys series involving Chet Morton and from those Mack Bolan and Sam Durell Novels. So I%26#039;d say the Judo chop was a popular fixture of paperback novels back during the 60s and 70s and was carried over into the 80s and 90s TV and film culture and became one of those cliches that directors and screenwriters have made into movie staples. But now that most people are more martial arts literate thanks to popular media, I%26#039;d suppose people begin to find such techniques described as odd.|||The actual name is shuto not judo, although they screw that up in the movies. While modern judo does not employ strikes the original style of judo did, even though it was still based mostly on throws and grappling.|||iv been knocked out by 1 it sucks but u hav2 hit really hard not a little girlie tap like in the movies|||Judo has no chops, so obviously it is fake.|||Ya! spock does that too, only he does the pinch. mabey there%26#039;s a really sensitive nerve there or something.|||I guess in theory you could hit an artery and temporarily suspend the bloodflow to the brain enough to cause a slight concussion, dizziness and even unconsciousness for a second or two.

%26quot;GOOD. Glad you agree...sheesh - so, he goes through the 60%26#039;s and judo chops everyone in his way until he get%26#039;s his mojo back, and drops kicks Mini-me in the process.%26quot;
%26quot;Mini-me??%26quot;
%26quot;Yeah Mini-me. Frau Frueline - DR. EVIL%26#039;S SECRET LOVER before you ask - kinda perfected the cloning process, and created a miniature Dr. Evil while Dr. Evil was frozen, and he is Dr. Evils%26#039; sidekick.%26quot;
%26quot;Uh huh.%26quot;
%26quot;Well, what do you think??%26quot;
%26quot;...%26quot;
%26quot;...%26quot;
%26quot;...%26quot;
%26quot;...It%26#039;ll make MILLIONS!!!. I LOVE IT!!!%26quot;
Or, It could just be a pardoy of Martial Arts.|||Hi there
its very much fake. As Ray has said its based on the Shuto (knife hand) strike seen in modern jujutsu and karate.
Spock perfected it by turning it into a pinch!
William shatner rounded it off using the two hand version!
And Austin Powers just blew it out of the water!
;-)

idai|||Actually, it%26#039;s not as unusual as most think. I used to read a lot of pulp fiction novels back in high school and college(still do, but not as much today) and I have read about judo chops in lots of novels back in the 70s, probably due to the authors%26#039; unfamiliarity with the martial arts during that era. I think I have even read about judo chops in a book from the Hardy Boys series involving Chet Morton and from those Mack Bolan and Sam Durell Novels. So I%26#039;d say the Judo chop was a popular fixture of paperback novels back during the 60s and 70s and was carried over into the 80s and 90s TV and film culture and became one of those cliches that directors and screenwriters have made into movie staples. But now that most people are more martial arts literate thanks to popular media, I%26#039;d suppose people begin to find such techniques described as odd.|||The actual name is shuto not judo, although they screw that up in the movies. While modern judo does not employ strikes the original style of judo did, even though it was still based mostly on throws and grappling.|||iv been knocked out by 1 it sucks but u hav2 hit really hard not a little girlie tap like in the movies|||Judo has no chops, so obviously it is fake.|||Ya! spock does that too, only he does the pinch. mabey there%26#039;s a really sensitive nerve there or something.|||I guess in theory you could hit an artery and temporarily suspend the bloodflow to the brain enough to cause a slight concussion, dizziness and even unconsciousness for a second or two. It%26#039;s easier though to produce the same state by grappling this particular part of the body.|||yes it is very much real and im not about to explain to a stranger how it works either or what you do thanks....
Could someone explain to me the difference between "Aikido", "Karate", "Judo" "Martial Arts" and Tae Kwon Do?
They are all basically they same concept, are they not? Please, tell me their similarities, differences, and ways of thought.|||Simple question requiring an extensive answer... please bear with me.
First of all, what you read here is the opinion of one person - everyone has their own perspective so please keep in mind that comparing other opinions is important.
Second, the different styles:
1.) Aikido - The Way of Harmonious Energy (one interpretation). This style is about blending with rather than resisting the energy of the opponent (be that when attacked OR when attacking) and using it to defeat the opponent.
Generally, the goal is to neutralize rather than destroy but depending on the practitioner, that idea can vary alot in execution - some are more violent than others.
Some mantras in my dojo are:
%26quot;You don%26#039;t choose what to do, your opponents tells you what to do.%26quot; (regarding blending with what is actually happening rather than what you want to happen or think is happening)
%26quot;More of what isn%26#039;t working isn%26#039;t going to work - when you find resistance, change.%26quot; (regarding committing to something rather than being flexible. Resistance is the signal to change to a different technique)
%26quot;Its not about winning, its about not loosing.%26quot; %26quot;What%26#039;s more important? Keeping your wallet or seeing your spouse and children again? Choose one.%26quot; (regarding self defense - walking away unharmed is more important than destroying the attacker)
%26quot;Its not you vs. your attacker(s), everyone is ONE single thing.%26quot; (regarding being one with the situation rather than drawing a line in the sand)
Aikido is a physical art, but as you become proficient, your perspective starts to change. The physical seems easy compared to the mental.
2.) Karate - Empty Hand (sometimes Karate Do) The Way of the Empty Hand. This style is generally a punching and kicking style. On the other hand, a block isn%26#039;t really a block at higher levels, its a strike of its own.
Everything - even something that seems defensive is an attack of its own. On the other hand, a few variations on the same mantra in my dojo were:
%26quot;There is no first punch in Karate.%26quot; (never attack, only defend)
%26quot;There is only the last punch in Karate.%26quot; (everything is designed to end the fight rather than prolong it... The first punch you throw should be the last one, if not the second punch should be the last one... The fight should be over)
3.) Judo - The Gentle Way. This is an art based on pulling when pushed, pushing when pulled as a gross generalization. Its not about strength, its about using the energy provided by the attacker. In this, the functional theory is similar to Aikido but does differ regarding philosophy and detailed mechanics in actual practice.
4.) Tae Kwon Do - The way of the Hand and Foot. There are other definitions, but they are basically the same idea. I wish I could offer more, but I don%26#039;t know enough about the art.
5.) Martial Arts - In Japanese, Bu Jutsu. In the West we think of %26#039;Martial%26#039; as meaning killing, destroying, dominating, etc.,... However, in the East, Bu doesn%26#039;t mean that at all - %26#039;Bu%26#039; means to arrest conflict. Arresting conflict doesn%26#039;t imply anything of the sort as an absolute. Sure, killing, destroying and dominating MIGHT be required depending on the situation, but arresting conflict isn%26#039;t synonymous with what the West thinks of when we here %26#039;martial%26#039;.
Next there is %26#039;Art%26#039; and there is %26#039;Way%26#039;. Art or method - Jutsu. Way or path - Do. There is a difference.
On the surface, a %26#039;jutsu%26#039; and a %26#039;do%26#039; may look the same, but under the hood, they may also differ. Certainly, depending on the style and the school, there are alot of grey areas, but to make a simple, black and white comparison, a %26#039;jutsu%26#039; is all about the physical - the DOING part of it. A %26#039;do%26#039; on the otherhand uses the physical practice as basically a tool to refine themselves in whatever way they are looking for (mentally, physically, spiritually, socially, psychologically, whatever).
Think of a traveler. For a %26#039;jutsu%26#039; traveler, the goal is to get to the end destination - forget the scenery, get to the top of the mountain. For a %26#039;do%26#039; traveler, the goal IS the journey itself - forget the top of the mountain, pay attention to the scenery.
Not to say one is right and the other wrong of course. There is however, a fundamental difference in approach. Everyone is different and everyone is looking for different things so whatever works for the individual right?
Lastly, in my opinion, the differences between the %26#039;jutsu%26#039; way of thinking and the %26#039;do%26#039; way of thinking are greater than the differences between the %26#039;aiki%26#039; or %26#039;karate%26#039; parts.
Aikido and Karate Do are more similar than Aiki Jutsu and Aikido for example. The difference is subtle but its profound. Some people will think the %26#039;do%26#039; idea is impractical and in-effective and some others will think the %26#039;jutsu%26#039; idea is too short-sighted and limited in application (application being more than effective response to a physical attack).
There will likely never be an end to that debate - there are excellent points on each side, but personally, I think they are based on misunderstanding.
A BBJ fighter will say Tae Kwon Do sucks and they may be right if a fight actually starts but then again, if the Tae Kwon Do fighter has been working on how to notice fights and dilute them before they happen with their mental attitude rather than encourage them to happen because they can take care of themself, didn%26#039;t they %26#039;arrest conflict%26#039; socially as the BBJ person would have physically?
Personally, I%26#039;d rather be the pussy nobody wants to fight rather than the bad-*** everyone wants to fight. That%26#039;s an example of the life-giving sword and the death-giving sword - its not about the physical - its all about the mental.|||they are very different but 1st lets start with basics. %26quot;martial arts%26quot; is a generic term for all fighting styles. Aikido is an art started by Morihea Ueshiba it is relitively new and is almost entirely defensive. it focuses alot on throws, locks, and circular motions, it is from Japan. Judo is also from japan, the art that most people practice today is the Judo developed by Jigoro Kano. Judo is almost entirely throws and trips. Neither Aikido nor Judo focuses much on strikes. Karate is also a japanese art but focuses much more on strikes like punching, kicking, knees, elbows, and etc. finally Tae Kwon Do is from Korea and focuses almost soley on kicking. People who practice TKD are extremely good at kicking.
The similarties are mostly their area of origins are close to each other. Also they all are either more throwing/joint locking or striking arts. the ways of thoughts are usually the same, use them as defence and as a last resort. especially stressed by Morihea Ueshiba, founder of Aikido.|||aikido and judo have similar roots... different types of jujitsu.. aikido is focused on joint minipulation and stealing balance.. its a spiritual art for peace preservation... judo is focus on throws and ground fighting its nowadays mostly for sport though.... karate is focused on strikes but the old styles of karate have grappling stuff similar to aikido%26#039;s modern karate is for self defence or sport.. traditional karate is for life preservation or combat (one hit one kill) taekwon do is.... essentially koreanized karate.. used almost exclusivly for sport and is basicly mostly kicks... no grappling... no throws..... just alot of kicking and blocking and punching..... all of the above are %26quot;martial arts%26quot; other martial arts include wing tsun, kajukenbo, kali... ect......|||sorry jack, ur wrong. Tae Kwon Do is from Korea, created by general choi, but is based off karate. we use hands and feet.

Judo Black Belt Grading: How long would it take to get a?
Black belt in Judo. Training twice a week. I understand that everyone learns at different rates and there are many things that can quicken/lengthen the time it takes but on average how many years would it take to get the black belt? Thank You|||I was a 3rd dan in karate when I began judo. I trained for two hours a day, twice a week and competed in an occasional shihap (tournament). It took me three years to earn my shodan in judo. Good luck.
Hey paper guy - thanks...I am operating on one hour of sleep and didn%26#039;t even realize I typed shihap LOL|||My dad used to train 3 times a week and he got his brown belt in a year. But then he did his shoulder in lol and had to give it up :S
I reckon if you train harder and maybe a bit more often then it should only take about 2 years. But then again it al depends how quickly you learn, and your club and your instructors, etc. Usually if you are excelling well or if you compete regularly and prove you have no difficulty in fighting other people with the same belt colour as you then your instructor can speed up your grading and it should only take a few years before you reach your black belt! Also you should try and ask your instructors this question, as they will fully know how well you are doing and if you are progressing. They should have a rough idea on how long it will take you! But just remember CONSISTENCY IS THE KEY TO SUCCESS!!!|||There are 3 organizations in the United States that can give rank in judo. Those organizations are USA Judo, which is the National Governing Body, United States Judo Federation (USJF) and United States Judo Association (USJA)
There are two paths to black belt. The quickest way to black belt is to be a competitor. The Time in Grade is shortened for those who are competitors. This is true within all the organizations.
Using the California Judo requirements, the minimum Time in Grade for a non-competitor to get to Ikkyu (first degree brown belt, which is the rank right before blackbelt) is 2 1/2 years. If you are a competitor the minimum time in grade is 1 year.
A competitor can make the jump to shodan (black belt) in as little as 6 months from Ikkyu, provided they have the points from competition. A non competitor needs 2 years of Time in Grade provided they have contributed to judo in some other way.
So, the path to black belt can be as short as 18 months if you are a good competitor. It can be as short as 4 1/2 years as a non competitor. Remember, these are minimum Time in Grade requirements.
Another thing to take into consideration is the instructor. It is up to the instructor to recommend the student for promotion, and the instructor%26#039;s recommendation is given wide discretion up to Ikkyu. There are instructors who may have more stringent or lax criteria, which can greatly affect the time it takes to black belt.
Its been our practical experience that most competitors can make black belt in 3-4 years and non-competitors in 5-7 years.

The judo guy is going to want to throw the bjj guy to the ground ASAP, don%26#039;t let him pull guard or the bjj guy is going to win quickly. Also, after the throw or takedown the judo guy is going to want to establish a dominant position. Move from side control to mount and work towards a submissions. There are many more submissions from mount than just a collar choke. If I had to put money on it, I would go with the BJJ blue belt winning via submission. If not, the judo guy would probably win on points if he gets in a nice takedown and a dominant position.|||You should NEVER go into a fight with a plan. If you do, it will probably fail.

judo? What is tae kwon do is it alot of stricks and hits? Should i take boxing instead?|||go with jujitsue,|||Tae-kwan-do is kind like a Korean version of Japanese karate. There are many styles of martial arts, so I suggest doing some research, find out what form of martial arts you like. But make sure you find reputable master, not some joker with %26quot;black belt%26quot;.|||You are a black belt in Judo and you don%26#039;t know anything about Tae Kwon Do?
Yes, you should take boxing or kickboxing instead. Tae Kwon Do is nothing like Judo, it is mostly kicking, and is a striking Martial Art.
Boxing will help you develop some footwork and accuracy, because realistically you aren%26#039;t going to be kicking too many people in a real fight. With boxing or kickboxing you will get the hand speed, accuracy, and most importantly defense to round out your Judo.
What is your favorite technique?|||I am currently in Taekwondo. And I love it. Taekwondo is just like japanese karate. There are a lot of punches and kicks in taekwondo. I would go for kickboxing if i were you its a lot easier.|||No. When I studied Taekwondo it was nothing like Judo. You may want to look into taking Jui-jitsu.|||I would take ju-jit-su. It%26#039;s easier than boxing or tae-kwon-do.|||Try Wing Chung Kung Fu, the style is more fluid, like judo.|||I recommend taking Kenpo Karate. It%26#039;s fast and more useful for self defense with less emphasis on kicking. It%26#039;s the first American martial art that combines techniques from many other martial arts. It%26#039;s easier on your bod than taking Tae Kwon Do. Jujitsu is great for developing grappling techniques. The combination of Kenpo and Jujitsu is awsome - Kenjitsu, but it%26#039;s new and not many teach it.|||Hi,
Judo is a defensive martial art involving grapples, while Tae Kwon Do is more of an offensive martial art with kicks and punches.
Since you practice defense, why not improve yourself with offense, Tae Kwon Do is not like Judo, but as you master and become very advanced in martial arts, you will find that they all have techniques in common.
Tae Kwon Do is a modern martial art from Korea that is characterized by its fast, high and spinning kicks.
Boxing is more of a sport not a martial art. As the name says, it involves only boxing (Not talking about kickboxing). With Boxing you will learn to defend your upper body, while your lower body will be exposed. I recommend you try kickboxing or Muai Tai, they are similar to Tae Kwon Do, but are more specialized in using the elbows and knees which could be very damaging to your opponent.
Hope my answer helped.
Regards|||The short answer is it depends on what you want to learn , tae kwon do is a art that does a lot of high kicks , spinning kicks and jumping kicks . If thats what you want then look at of the TKD schools in your area and find the one that suits you . If you want to learn how to punch then look into boxing , but be prepared for a look of sparring and hard training . The upside is you will learn how to punch well in a short amount of time .
I started in Judo and I did find that some Karate and TKD stlyes don%26#039;t mix well with because of the deep stances , that some of them use .
Look around watch some classes go to some dojos and gyms
I hope this was helpfull
Tom Mac|||The anwer to this quesion depends greatly on what you seek for your consideration of TaeKwon-Do or boxing, and unfortunatley you don%26#039;t specifiy that desire.
As a black belt in Judo, I would suggest training in a discipline which provides different concepts and strategies for defending yourself is an excellent choice, as it will broaden your understanding of defensive concepts, it will highlight strenghts and deficiencies in your current Judo experience and abilities, and it will add to your general knoweldge of your own abilities and effectiveness.
Your choice will be, do you wish to take a similar art i.e. one that will not take you too far from your current discipline and its concepts and techniques, or do you wish to take a different art i.e. one that will take you away from your current discipline and expose you to new ideas and concepts.
I would tent to recommend staying with traditional martial arts such as TaeKwon-Do, Karate, etc. if you go for something different rather than boxing, but I admit to some bias in this :) Honestly, it%26#039;s probalby much more important to find an instructor you like and a discipline you really want to do if you choose to go beyond your current Judo training.
Good luck to you!

Which martial art style has more effective techniques in pure ground fighting practicality? Judo or BJJ?
Because I have this friend that does BJJ that is really pissed off over this Judo guy and I dunno which of them will get badly beaten up when they%26#039;ll get into a real school fight.|||If they ever fought, they%26#039;d both be morons and both would lose, that aside........ this is my opinion:
Considering they are of equal skill level, it%26#039;d be a pretty even fight.
The Judoka would most likely pin down the BJJ practitioner, as they have alot more throws in their repertoire. From there the BJJ guy would be home (provided he can withstand the pain of being slammed to possible a hard surface).
From there the BJJ guy would probably go for submissions, and the Judoka has a great chance to defend them. If they are skillfull, they%26#039;d go back and forth.|||Like Frank said... %26quot;A Real School Fight%26quot; is for losers, and will ultimately gain nothing.
Most BJJ vs. Judo players end with whomever the better fighter is... art vs. art doesn%26#039;t matter as much.
Ask Helio Gracie why his arm aches when it rains outside..
Ask Royce Gracie whether he was out in the Yoshida fight...
Keep in mind Helio beat a few Judokas before Kimura came to avenge Judo.
And Royce beat a few as well, as Remco Parduel can attest.
Either one is very good in real practicality, because they both train with resistance.
Having BJJ doesn%26#039;t give you a leg up against someone with Judo, and having Judo doesn%26#039;t give you a leg up against someone with BJJ...
Both have plusses and minuses and are on even keel.
That being said, a Judo person controlling the takedown is everything. When you are starting off in a bad position, against someone who has to hold people in a bad position (Judo has to maintain dominant position for 25 seconds) usually things aren%26#039;t going to go well for you.
But that all doesn%26#039;t matter, because ultimately it is the fighter in a match up like this, who trains more, who is in better shape, who has the best skills at their chosen art, and the ability to use it.
Hard to say... but style vs. style doesn%26#039;t really do anything in a match up of two similar styles.
BJJ isn%26#039;t a magic garunteed victory art... as tons of BJJ blackbelts with more than enough losses under their belts can attest.|||Every technique in BJJ has existed in Judo way before BJJ was even formed, and this is coming from someone who studies BJJ and Judo as well so I have no biases.
Judo people are generally VERY tough to deal with whether standing up or on the ground.
True, in a Judo tournement, Judo players have an advantage because they can%26#039;t spend too much time on the ground thus effectively minimizing the chances for any sub work, but these rules won%26#039;t apply in a real fight and an a Judoka can apply a RNC just as quickly as a BJJ student.
This said, BJJ has added a lot of sophistication to the art of submissions by focusing on transitions, combinations and the introduction to no-gi fighting.
In the end none of this will matter because like Frank said above, your friends would be morons.|||BJJ definately covers the ground fighting territory. Judo is essential when getting a person TO the GROUND, like slamming them to it. the average Judo practitioner will have a disadvantage ON the ground. but one thing about a Judo warrior is that a streetfight is more likely to end when he/she slams the aggressor on the cement, letting gravity and the ground do the damaging.

How hard is Tae Kwon Do compared to Karate or Judo? Is Tae Kwon Do considered a difficult martial art to learn
I think Tae Kwon Do is one of the easier arts to learn, I%26#039;m not trying to degrade it or say its ineffective. If you notice, most kids at a young age start taking Tae Kwon Do as opposed to something else like Judo or some form of a Chinese martial art.|||it depends, I doubt you would push yourself as hard in a TKD class as when you are doing full contact sparing or throwing someone, depepnding on which class you go, overall i would say its easyer, iv been to a TKD class and they do the same basic stuff as us (karate) minus the bag work and sparing which is what takes the most stamina|||i dont think any kind of martial arts its eazy.|||Tae Kwon Do, at the least the style taught in schools these days, is not hard to learn, just takes time. It is great for a beginner in the Martial Arts. It deals with your kicks, punches, blocks, Katas and some styles/schools of Tae Kwon Do deal with weapons. I have a Black Belt in Tae Kwon Do. It is easier to learn it than Judo. Karate is just a different version of Tae Kwon Do. Though I will not knock any style out there, TKD is one of the easiest to learn. Judo deals much more with takedowns and grappling. Tae Kwon Do, depending on the school, has little to do with Takedowns and grappling, if any at all.|||You have to look really hard to find an effective tae kwon do school. They watered down the techniques when they taught in the states. Most don%26#039;t emphasize hands nearly enough either. I%26#039;ve seen people learn tae kwon do and be worse fighters for it. It also sizes you up more with your opponent that a grappling art. If you had to learn one of the other, learn to fight on the ground.|||TKD is not hard to learn. I already learned my kicks,blocks,punches and my form in a few days.
I had all 3 red stripes in 3 days and i am working on my 1 st black stripe. After I get my 3 black stripes I will be able to test for my Low Yellow belt.|||TKD is cake|||tkd is easier than both of the other options with karate as the hardest|||. TKD is generally harder, the emphasis is on more eccelctic moves such as high kicks and more power with them. Although u will find karate equally as demanding it wont improve youre flexibility like TKD.|||Tae Kwon Do is primarily centered around breaking stuff. It was developed by Korean farm workers in response to harsh overlords. The techniques centered on use of common farm implements as weapons, and the ability to break through the tough Korean bamboo armor worn by the overlords.
I, personally don%26#039;t think it%26#039;s any harder to learn than any other martial art. But, my personal preferrence is Aikido, as it is centered around diverting the opponent%26#039;s own force to overcome the attack without inflicting any damage or harm to the attacker in the process. Aikido is the hardest martial art to learn as it concentrates on controling, not harming, your opponent; using just enough force to redirect the opponent%26#039;s attack and show superior force. The intent is to discourage the opponent from further attack through this demonstration of superior force without inflicting harm on the opponent. The theory is that it is just as wrong to hurt a person who is attempting to hurt you, as somebody gets hurt in either case. The only %26#039;ethical%26#039; solution is to avoid harm to your self and to your opponent.|||Technically TKD is difficult to master, each kick must be perfectly applied with correct balance and of course with speed. You%26#039;re guard must always be up and strong etc. Karate is much the same, I would say it is easier than TKD but that鈥檚 because I am a practitioner of TKD and love it. Karate has a couple more simple clinches but the techniques I generally found to be easy. I also do MMA, and touched on Judo and Aikido. As for judo the simple grabs and techniques are easy to get hold of, as it progresses some of the later techniques can be VERY hard to get, especially more acrobatic ones.|||It all depends on the practitioner. What one person will find easy and effortless, another may find complex and impossible to comprehend.
All systems have complexity and simplicity. Much depends on the instructor teaching the lessons, and your ability to comprehend the instruction provided.
Best advice, try out all the styles you are intersted in and see what suits you best. Most decent and reputable systems will let you test the program out for a while - but don%26#039;t decide in two days. It really does take some time to get a good feel for each sytle and determine what will work for you on all levels.

Judo question. What training is good for Judo that i can do alone?

Why does Judo give out two bronze medals?
To win the gold medal, you must win every match. To get a silver you must win every match, except the final match. It is like a single elimination tournament. However, imagine how unfair it would be if you were the second best fighter and your first match was against the best fighter.
That is why Judo (and many other individual combat tournaments) uses the repechage system. The losers get a second chance at a medal. If you lose a match you continue to fight other losers so until become one of the two the %26quot;best loser%26quot;. The two %26quot;best losers%26quot; have each only lost one match. If you lose two matches you are out of the tournament.
The winners of the 2 semi-final matches fight each other for gold and silver. The losers of the 2 semi-final matches fight the two %26quot;best losers%26quot;. The winner of theses matches each get a bronze medal. This effectively means that the bronze medal chase is a double elimination tournament.
Personally I think all competitors should get bronze medals. Because everybody knows that bronze medals don%26#039;t really mean anything.|||This is kind of a guess.
I would say if it%26#039;s a tournament, before the final there is a fighter who lost to the winner, and a fighter who lost to the runner-up. So instead of the two facing off, they give them both a bronze.
Maybe.

Besides Judo, what are effective martial arts for little dudes?
I could be flicked to death.|||Tae Kwando|||Wing Chun Kung Fu. Aikido. Jeet Kun Do. Bruce Lee studied WC and created JKD, and he was a small, albeit badass, guy. Also, Wing Chun is supposed to be a style a woman developed to defeat an emperor who was harrassing her. It%26#039;s good because it relies on mechanics, not so much muscle strength. JKD is an off-shoot of Wing Chun with American boxing mixed in.|||depends on what you want him to learn. if you want him to learn how to fight find a school and teaches all aspects of fighting, if you want him to learn self discipline, honor and respect then i would do like a karate, or taekwon do, he will also learn how to fight in those classes. |||I would go with Wing Chun or Krav Maga.

What is more popular jujitsu or judo?
Which do you think is more powerful?|||Well i find judo to be more widespread internationally. Pretty much any country that you go to has any number of judo dojos. I started judo in Zimbabwe and there were two judo dojos there. There was no one with a jujitsu background when i was there.
I%26#039;m in Aus now, and our dojo sometimes would get visitors from other countries wanting to challenge our dojo and learn from each other. The judo community is therefore an international one, with good relations crossing borders. In my dojo there are also some who started with a brazillian jujitsu background training judo with us.
Judo is also an Olympic sport, and viewed by millions of people during this period. The judo community is also a very active one, there is always some form of competition throughout the year ranging from the club level to an international level.
When it comes to power, judo has certain advantages to jujitsu, and vice versa. Rules in both sports differ, as well as the objective of the fighters (in judo an ippon achieved through a really good throw, would signal the end of the match, while jujitsu requires a submission). Jujitsu is definitely deadlier when it comes to groundwork, but judo has the advantage when it comes to take-downs.
There is also a going trend of more jujitsu moves being incorporated in judo. In the foreseeable future we could actually see a merger between the two sports, becoming one sport. Remember, judo originated from traditional jujitsu. So comparing judo to jujitsu in the future may seem pointless.|||In the early 1960%26#039;s Judo was more popular in the U.S.A. it was almost 1/3 of all martial arts here then. Today jujitsu seems to be more popular. Judo was created by Dr. Kano who was a student of jujitsu. His goal in creating it was to create an arts for competition. It is much like jujitsu except some of the more dangerous techniques of jujitsu were not included. However, you must understand that many judoka practice techniques that are not allowed in judo competition. So as to which one is more powerful, that varies depending on the person and his training.|||Jui Jitsu! Judo is mainly takedowns and stuff. What do you think would do better throwing someone on the ground or choking someone until they die or fall asleep, or even breaking there arm or leg or anything else|||jujitsu because most of the moves are deadly

How do I get better at Judo?
I have stated Brazilian Jiu Jitsu classes 4 month ago, and I have a litle improvment but not as nearly as much as I would like. I know I can do better but just going to classes dosent do it for me. May be somebody has sugestion or recomendation on where and how i can learn more and get a better understanding of ground fighting techniques. Also do I need to work on my phisical strengh as well( working out) or concentrate more on technique or both ? And if I do need to work out may be somebody can recomend Ideal workout routine ( I think regular weight lifting can get in a way by making you too slow )

I am currently a black belt in Judo and have been in boxing for going on 2 years I mainly started if for self?
defense. Should I take MMA of Kuk Sool Won for extra self defense or do you think that I have enough fighting skills in for self defense? I don%26#039;t like high kicks because I have witnessed how high kicks can get you into alot alot of trouble. I called the instructor for Kuk Sool Won and I asked him mainly what it consisted of and he told me Judo and Tae Kwon Do is for sissys. I didn%26#039;t tell him I was and still am in boxing. Should I go further and pursue another blackbelt or should I stay in boxing? Do I have enough self defense skills? Whats your advice?|||If you want pure self defense why not take an extra class once a week in Krav Maga or something.
If you want the MMA experience I would not quit what you are doing right now. Actually I have a similar experience to you. I had a long amatuer boxing background as a kid. I%26#039;ve been training in Judo for a few years. I didn%26#039;t want to stop Judo so I also have an arrangement with a local MMA gym where I come in and work out 1 time a week with there guys. I do light sparring with striking and takedowns. Also do some jujitsu with them. I just had to talk to the owners and make special arrangements. I tried a couple other gyms before this one but the owners were not flexible and wouldn%26#039;t work with my schedule. If you ask around I bet you can find a situation like I have.|||If you are doing judo and boxing, I at least don%26#039;t have to shoot down tradtional martial arts to you, since they are two realistic styles.
My advice is test your skills out in an MMA club. You are already very prepared with your background.
Save kuk sool won and TKD etc. for those nights you just want to go and beat up on some easy guys.|||For theoretical self defense and discipline, or do you want Raw take downs and punching which are real life experience self defense techniques?
MMA training will help do that, because boxing is more a disciplined sport.
Whats your boxing going to do for you when someone shoots in
youll try your judo,
but what happens if you cant toss them, or pin them?
youre going to get to scrapping.
And as someone who did TKD, and boxed more than a few years Id say for true self defense, get with an MMA training group.

How do I train for Judo Junior Nationals?
Okay so I%26#039;m going to the Junior Nationals in New Brunswick. I%26#039;m in okay shape but my sensi told me if everything is even between you and your opponent.... the fitter one will win. And nobody from our club has won a medal since 2005 and I wanna change that. So could someone give me some training ideas... and what to eat so i dont go over my devision in weight. I%26#039;m gonna try to not eat anything %26quot;unhealthy%26quot;.
Thanks.

I can tell you that the route to fitness is to combine strength training with a cardiovascular workout. If you belong to a fitness center, try running a mile three times a week and lift weights in circuit training two to three times a week (not on the same days). Or take a Pilates class twice a week to strengthen, plus a cardio kickboxing class or a spinning class two to three times a week, again not on the same days. If your dojo is where you work out, ask your sensei to help develop a training regimen for you. Push ups, sit ups, mountain climbers all help build strength while running laps around the training floor and jumping jacks can get you started on toning.
As for diet, eliminate all beverages except for water, avoid baked sweets, ramp up protein and cut back on carbs until the week you are competing. Good luck!|||Go to bodybuilding.com, they have stack of routines and workouts for anything.|||ask your instructor

What would you think of a person with a wrestling and judo background entering a submission tournament?
Wrestlers and Judokas do very well in submission tournaments, they are strong as hell, tough as nails, and have great technique.|||bad idea. Those are good foundations for sub tourneys, but if you dont seriously practice , you are gonna get hurt. You need to know strikes and kicks. Plus you really need to know how to fight.|||Honestly, I think that background would help you, but unless you%26#039;ve trained in putting someone else in a submission (other than a pin) then I think you would struggle.
But if you already know armbars and triangle chokes, guilitines, etc, then you might be ok.
James|||It is an excellent background for submission grappling tourneys. You have some good submissions from judo as well as superior takedowns/throws. Combine that with looking for submissions from more dominate positions (the wrestling background comes in handy there) and you have a great base to work from.
I would suggest that if you%26#039;re going against a bjj player that when (I say when and not if) they pull guard, work for your submissions until he opens his guard for his submissions. As soon as you feel he has unlocked his legs, explode back to your feet. Then either drop into side control or remain standing. By going up and around into side control you no longer have to fight thru%26#039; his legs to get your submissions. And if you just get up to your feet he%26#039;ll have to stand as well and you%26#039;ll rack up points for more takedowns. This is a winning strategy against jujitsu players as they get most of their submissions against wrestlers who stay in their guard by patiently waiting for the wrestler to overextend himself pressing the action.
Good luck and have fun!!
THERE IS NO SPOON - There is no striking in submission grappling. If there is no knowledge of a subject then there is no reason for you to answer.|||why else would you want a wrestling and judo background?
go for it, doubledragon... chase that dream and make it real!!!!!!!!!!!|||I think that would be the generally accepted background!!|||learn some leglocks and stuff your judo wouldnt teach that. depending on what judo school you come from! some focus more on joint locks than others. but go for it as long as you tap you probably wont get hurt.
but watch out for heel hooks they are nasty.

I am going to start Judo soon, is and hour and a quarter a week enough to become efficient at it?
It%26#039;s not a lot, but it%26#039;s better than nothing. You will learn at that rate, but perhaps not very quickly. The problem is one week is enough to often forget what you went through last week.
I would suggest you do some of the exercises outside the dojo to help with your overall technique. One of the keys to acquiring technique is repetition, repetition, and more repetition followed by repetition. There are always some things you can practice outside of the dojo and you can never practice too much.
For example, you will soon be learning how to fall. You can always practice that on your own. There%26#039;s a lot of things that really require a partner to practice, unfortunately, but others you can move forward on your own time.
Also, eventually, you%26#039;ll make friends in the dojo. Sometimes, you can practice with someone from your dojo outside of class hours. There%26#039;s no law against it. Parks and beaches are great places to practice. The only drawback is you don%26#039;t have your sensei present to correct what you%26#039;re doing wrong, but at least you%26#039;re still practicing. And since you do go back to the dojo every week anyway, you don%26#039;t really have time to develop really bad habits.
But just a bit of advice: Don%26#039;t let practice outside of the dojo become your main focus. Just because you can practice outside the dojo, it doesn%26#039;t mean your main focus shouldn%26#039;t be the dojo. When you practice on your own, you%26#039;re just trying to hone in what you learn in the dojo. The dojo is where you really learn this stuff in the first place.|||It%26#039;s true that everyone learns at their own pace, but you must be realistic and assess what you believe to be %26#039;good%26#039; before even reading any of these comments.
By %26#039;efficient,%26#039; are you implying that you wish to know all the techniques they show you in class and be able to execute them, or do you wish to know how to do the techniques extremely well?
An hour and fifteen minutes is a good start, but it would be best for YOU if you attended more classes. It would be fairly difficult to learn AND retain the material if you only attend one class a week. Part of learning Judo, like any Martial Art, is also practicing it on your own. When I was in Tae Kwon Do, and now that I am in Karate, I always go over my patterns and kata%26#039;s in my head while I am walking, and I might try to recall how some of the self-defense techniques went.
If you were only to attend one class a week, you would not learn enough to advance at a pace YOU like, and you would have to obviously set aside more time to practice at home.
I have been attending three classes a week for Karate, and now I will have time to attend five per week. When I was in Tae Kwon Do, I attended five a week as well. This allowed me to learn the material fairly quickly and advance at a steady pace so I was constantly pushing myself to do better. If you don%26#039;t attend enough classes, you won%26#039;t grow enough to call your techniques anything above a beginner level.
I would recommend you aim to attend three classes a week if you can. (And don%26#039;t forget the exercise aspect of this! You will want to attend more than just one class if you want to get in shape, and stay in shape!)|||No, not really. I sometimes get a similar question from parents who want to bring their child once a week to a karate class. Doing something once a week is not near enough for you to see or realize any real benefits in the long run. It leaves to much time between classes so memory as well as repetition tend to suffer. Not only that but if the rest of the class is working out more often you will constantly be behind them and struggling to do what they have been learning and practicing several times each week. While once a week is better than nothing I would suggest you try to squeeze another workout in so that there is only three or four days between them.|||Six hours a day is the competitor%26#039;s way, that%26#039;s what I say.|||Eventually.|||Maybe over a 30 year period! Be serious. You only get out of something what you put into it. Although all of us learn things at different rates, the steady practice of a martial discipline is what will help you to become proficient at it. You also have to have someone to practice with. Although there are DVDs available to study from, they are only supplemental at best.You can%26#039;t ask them questions, and you can%26#039;t get specific feedback for the most part.
If you are studying in a classroom with an instructor once a week, but are also seriously practicing in a conducive environment throughout the week with a friend or classmate (of the same discipline), then I would say that you will progress at a steady rate.|||A week? no. I practice Judo normally 1.5 hours per day two days a week, and I%26#039;m still only halfway decent 2.5 years in. There are dojos that practice 5 days a week 3+ hours per day before major tournaments.
However, obviously you have to make the choice that is the best for you, and if your schedule only allows for you to go to class 1 day per week, then that is better than nothing.|||no buddy I%26#039;m sorry to say its not!!!|||at least 3 days a week an hour and a half at a time at minimum.|||No, from expereince if you want to be real good martial arts like judo. ATLEAST 3+ hours, per week.|||Sometimes that is all you can find the time for. You can improve it will just be at a slow pace.|||nah u need to double that at least
I would suggest you do some of the exercises outside the dojo to help with your overall technique. One of the keys to acquiring technique is repetition, repetition, and more repetition followed by repetition. There are always some things you can practice outside of the dojo and you can never practice too much.
For example, you will soon be learning how to fall. You can always practice that on your own. There%26#039;s a lot of things that really require a partner to practice, unfortunately, but others you can move forward on your own time.
Also, eventually, you%26#039;ll make friends in the dojo. Sometimes, you can practice with someone from your dojo outside of class hours. There%26#039;s no law against it. Parks and beaches are great places to practice. The only drawback is you don%26#039;t have your sensei present to correct what you%26#039;re doing wrong, but at least you%26#039;re still practicing. And since you do go back to the dojo every week anyway, you don%26#039;t really have time to develop really bad habits.
But just a bit of advice: Don%26#039;t let practice outside of the dojo become your main focus. Just because you can practice outside the dojo, it doesn%26#039;t mean your main focus shouldn%26#039;t be the dojo. When you practice on your own, you%26#039;re just trying to hone in what you learn in the dojo. The dojo is where you really learn this stuff in the first place.|||It%26#039;s true that everyone learns at their own pace, but you must be realistic and assess what you believe to be %26#039;good%26#039; before even reading any of these comments.
By %26#039;efficient,%26#039; are you implying that you wish to know all the techniques they show you in class and be able to execute them, or do you wish to know how to do the techniques extremely well?
An hour and fifteen minutes is a good start, but it would be best for YOU if you attended more classes. It would be fairly difficult to learn AND retain the material if you only attend one class a week. Part of learning Judo, like any Martial Art, is also practicing it on your own. When I was in Tae Kwon Do, and now that I am in Karate, I always go over my patterns and kata%26#039;s in my head while I am walking, and I might try to recall how some of the self-defense techniques went.
If you were only to attend one class a week, you would not learn enough to advance at a pace YOU like, and you would have to obviously set aside more time to practice at home.
I have been attending three classes a week for Karate, and now I will have time to attend five per week. When I was in Tae Kwon Do, I attended five a week as well. This allowed me to learn the material fairly quickly and advance at a steady pace so I was constantly pushing myself to do better. If you don%26#039;t attend enough classes, you won%26#039;t grow enough to call your techniques anything above a beginner level.
I would recommend you aim to attend three classes a week if you can. (And don%26#039;t forget the exercise aspect of this! You will want to attend more than just one class if you want to get in shape, and stay in shape!)|||No, not really.

Is it a bad idea to take up a grappling art(Judo, BJJ etc) with a bad back?
I agree with Rasta.
How bad is your back? That will determine if you really can do it or not. Talk to the teacher tell them your problem and even go over it with a Dr and Physical Therapist. Make sure this will help you and not hurt you.
If the teacher knows and is a good teacher they can work around it and actually help you build more strength, but a bad teacher will just make it worst.
Check em out make sure they are for real and your Dr OK%26#039;s you to participate and the teacher says OK too.
Good Luck!|||If the problem is muscular as strange as it may sounds having strong abdominal muscles will compensate and overcome that.
If it%26#039;s spinal or spasms due to hip joint problems I would procede with a great deal of caution.Where it hurts is sometimes just a symptom and not the real problem.|||easiest and simplest answer with minimal time and risk involved.
Go consult your doctor, if you have any physical ailments before taking up a new exercise regime, consult your doctor, they should be able to tell you if whats your doing will be good / bad|||The yoga and pilates suggestion is an excellent idea. That and a few sessions at the chiropractor before you start to roll (and continue going an a regular basis). Of course let your instructors know you have limitations due to your back. There is no reason just because you have physical limitations that you couldn%26#039;t learn Judo, or BJJ, etc. Just focus on learning and drilling your techniques for self-defense.
If the instructors will not modify go to a better school. We%26#039;ve had a student with MS and currently have one with scoliosis. So a bad back should not stop you.
Good luck!!|||How bad is your back? If it is just always %26quot;sore%26quot; that could be from insufficient muscular development, and something like judo or bjj might help you long term. If it is actually bad from some kind of injury and if you have trouble actually lifting weight with your back, I would be careful. Grappling is hard on your back--I am generally pretty sore in my lower back the morning after a rolling session. You need to make sure you are warming up properly and that you stretch well afterwards and every day. There are good stretches and yoga positions you can specifically use to target whatever part of your back is bad.
Pilates and Yoga would definitely be two things you should look into.Pilates, and the right sort of Yoga, will gently strengthen your core muscles a lot, and that should help your back situation. Then you might consider grappling. I hate to discourage anybody from grappling--it is an awesome sport and activity, and it can be pursued by people of older ages and more broken down bodies. But if your back already hurts just from existing, you might want to build it up some as you introduce yourself into grappling. If you get advanced enough so that you are rolling against guys who are really good, it will work your back out a lot. Even as a beginner, against other beginners, your going to be asking your back to do a lot. Just drilling technique with no resistance from your partner might feel tough.

What is a good Judo book or video to start out with?
I have no experience and want a beginner video or book that is very step by step.|||There is no substitute for an instructor. You can%26#039;t learn from a book or video.

Why did the founder of Judo, Dr. Jigoro Kano, not want Judo in the Olympics?
There is no evidence that Dr. Kano wanted his Judo as an Olympic event. Judo was entered into the Olympics after his death.|||the same reason that most traditional karateka don%26#039;t want karate in the Olympics, it ruins the art, it becomes a sport and loses its essence. somehow Judo managed to keep itself correct but he was frightened that it would become something that he would no longer recognize|||there%26#039;s also no evidence that he didn%26#039;t want it in the Olympics either dude, the absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence, (yes its from the boondocks, but it works well here)
they probably,actually, did it to honor him after death, or they could have just wanted it in there, heck he may have put it in his will which is why it wasn%26#039;t in the Olympics in his life.|||is there any evidence that he didnt want it in the olympics? maybe it wasnt offered at the time.
