Attacking Judo: A Guide To Combinations And Counters Book

(Ref: BS28-173)

Attacking Judo: A Guide To Combinations And Counters Book
Positive attacking in throwing and ground work is at the heart of all the best judo. This is a fundamental attitude of world champions Katsuhihiko Kashiwazaki and Hidetoshi Nakanishi, who are now among the foremost teachers in Japan. But this boldness must be based on a sound technical understanding. Attacking Judo is a new concept in judo publishing based on simple drawings rather than long complex explanations. The main throws and ground work techniques of judo are placed in a context of combinations and counters. Crucial details of pull, push and direction of throw are indicated by arrows. All the techniques are arranged in sections which are both easy to absorb and to memorise. Attacking Judo emphasises classical Japanese judo yet teaches in a modern and accessible style. It is a book that will have a direct influence on everyone's judo practice, from beginner to black belt.

Tai Otoshi Book

(Ref: BS28-180)

Tai Otoshi Book
"Tai-otoshi is one of the most classical of all judo throws. It is a technique in which one's whole body is used to make the throw work--and when successful, the effect is both beautiful and devastating. It is a tribute to the very nature of the throw that it has survived over years the fashions, wrestling techniques and all the new tricks that have been introduced to win competitions. Although well known for his effective uchimata and unstoppable armlocks, Neil Adams regards tai-otoshi as his tokui-waza--favorite technique. Throughout his career Adams used this technique time and again to throw players of the very highest calibre for ippon. In fact, his very last throw (and his very last ippon) in his long and illustrious career was tai-otoshi. In his comprehensive survey of the development and the evolution of tai-otoshi Adams emphasises the importance of rhythm, balance, timing and proper positioning. To Adams this is what good judo is all about. This innovative exposition is a welcome addition to the Masterclass Techniques series. As with all books in this series there are excellent contest photographs--many of them featuring Adams himself--from the superb collection of judo photographer David Finch. "

Leggett says that judo can be as much about character development as combat on the mat. This is the first book of judo stories in the tradition of Zen to be produced.
