Excellent judo demonstrations. I love judo as a sport and for self defense.

Thank you so much Lamont. The quality of teaching in these older videos is just as high, even if the production value isn't ;) Stay tuned!

Excellent thanks SENSEI !
I love the way you split the centerline with a penetration step to set up the angle for the tai Otoshi

Glad you liked it Razor! :) Many more to come...

I love Tai Otoshi! Reminds me of the great Isao Inokuma.

Riki sensei got to stay at Inokuma's Sekijuku and learn for a while!
