I miss training Judo... Judo principles helps a lot in my BJJ game... I love Judo because was my first touch with martial arts, i hope one day i train Judo again. Thanks for this great video!
Judo and BJJ compliment each other perfectly. Anyone who trains one does themselves a huge disservice not training the other, at least a little bit. I found my BJJ experience made my Judo better as I was less hesitant to commit to my throws. BJJ had taught me how to turn landing in a bad position due to a poorly executed throw, into a winning submission due to a sweep or reversal into a submission. Judo made my BJJ better by giving me more ways to get someone on the floor. Simple!
Thank you. I have had a lot of trouble with this throw. I guess it's because it's so counter intuitive to me. I have a habit of using only my leg and not stepping in deep enough.
Yet another move I learned in the wrestling room that no one told me was a Judo technique lol so odd but thank you for the vid, very helpful in refreshing.
guys thank you for your positive replies , i unfortunately dont do bjj anymore since i switched to kickboxing 1 year ago , but i still miss bjj and i wish all of you luck in your journeys
Osoto Gari - Good if the opponent's right leg is forward? Ouchi Gari - Good if the opponent's left leg is more forward? (Assuming you are gripping their right arm and left shoulder.)
Thanks for the feedback - this is one of our earlier videos and we've worked on improving the audio over the three recording sessions we've done so far. We recognise its something we can continue to improve.
Efficient Judo just to throw out some ideas, audio could be increased post production on most video editing software(although not the ideal method). A better mic could help, something like a $30 Takstar mic or a laviar mic(the type that you pin on your cloths). Spelling on laviar is probably wrong.
Thanks - The audio is our area of least expertise so all advice is welcome. Since this video, we've improved our mic placement and played around with improving quality post-production - its still far from where I'd like it to be. As we record our content in batches (3 sessions so far) it takes a while for these changes to become noticeable for our audience. Hopefully if you watch our latest vids (seoi-nage series) you'll see some improvement. We we'll continue to improve it for our 4th session in future.
So does the back leg have to cross behind your front leg? I keep seeing sine ppl cross it and others just slide it behind instead if completely crossing.
It's doesn't have to, there are different styles of ouchi. But you typically want to bring your hips close for the attack, meaning your support leg needs to be closer than it is in your starting stance.
@@EfficientJudo thanks a lot for the quick reply and info. I was confused as I see this also used in wrestling and they don't quite cross the back leg for the push off (more of just a slide right behind the front foot).
😎 I subscribed. I’m a yellow belt and I’ve been struggling more to learn the moves in class since I can’t work with a partner because of covid. I’ll be keeping up with your videos so I can watch the moves outside of class.
I need to rephrase my question. How do you know which foot sweeps require you to go to ankle to ankle and which sweeps require committing your whole leg behind their leg? Is that what minor vs major means? Thank you.
Not all ashi-waza are 'sweeps', there are fundamental differences in the mechanics of harai, gari, gake (sweep, reap and hook) and are a more important distinction to be made than how tori and ukes leg connect. Traditionally the difference between 'O' and 'Ko' techniques are the amount of body movement required to perform the technique. Classically executed, techniques like Osoto-gari and Ouchi-gari are calf to calf connections, while Ko-uchi-gari and Ko-soto-gari tori uses the palm of the foot to reap uke's foot.
@@EfficientJudo I meant like in an R v R situation, reaping sleeve grip side with my left leg. So left hand grabbing the sleeve, right hand on lapel, bringing uke's balance back on his heels, but left leg forward, right behind, reaping with the left leg and keeping my head on my right side.
@@coffeeortea547 if your left leg is forward, your not in a RvR stance anymore. Your mixing up your grips and stance, which in general in bad, but does have specific uses in a gripping exchange. Assuming your stood like that for a purpose, the problem with attacking the sleeve side is that it's difficult to put adequate downward pressure through the leg being reaped with the sleeve side. So in the scenario you describe, I would either only attack when they themselves have completely committed to being on their heels, and finishing with a dropping Ouchi. Or keeping the lapel grip (more likely an armpit grip post), I'd switch my sleeve grip and throw it over ukes shoulder with a strong driving ouchi.
@@coffeeortea547 if you watch the last clip of this video, it shows the second scenario I was trying to explain. ruclips.net/video/yVKzyxrxhiU/видео.html
Why do bjj practitioners call themselves fighters? I like judokas saying their judokas or judo players. I can’t imagine a judoka saying “I’m a judo fighter” lol. Not being rude. I’ve just never understood the whole “super fight” thing either
@@Reddogg387 why do boxers call themselves fighters? They only punch the head and torso, they don't do anything in the clinch, they don't take the fight to the floor. What would you class as a fighter?
Its hard to provide feedback without seeing what is happening - bit remember gari techniques are reaps and need to be forcefully applied, they're not sweeps / harai.
@Z Yes, both reaping and sweeping work, neither are prevented by footwear or the ground. It's important to note that reaping and sweeping are different mechanics and are not performed in the same way. A reap should be forceful against a load-bearing leg, but without seeing what you do, it not possible for me to know if your problem is because your reap is wrong or if you're not using the rest of your body correctly.
Sometimes you have great audio, sometimes it really sucks and I have to blast my earphones to hear you. Then the next video plays and blows out my eardrums
The audio on our old videos (like this one from our first recording session) wasn't very good. We improved it for subsequent recording sessions. Thanks for watching!

You put "efficient" into Efficient Judo. Videos are so quick and so good. Fundamentals clearly explained.
Thanks for watching!
fantastic explanation! The details about head placement were really useful, hadn't considered it until you mentioned it
Thanks for watching!
Many thanks for all your Demo videos. They are very helpful!
Thanks for watching! I'm glad you find them useful.
Love this! I'm a BJJ white belt learning this takedown in class. Please direct me to one or more links to the most basic takedowns?
Check out O-goshi as a basic hip throw
Thank you. I have had a lot of trouble with this throw. I guess it's because it's so counter intuitive to me. I have a habit of using only my leg and not stepping in deep enough.
Thanks for watching! Hip positioning and distance is key
Beginner at judo i need this. Thank you 🥋
@Thechallenger_22 Thanks for watching!

It's all just grappling - wrestling moves, judo moves it's the same basic principles - only so many ways to manipulate a human the body!
@@EfficientJudo that is certainly true and an open-minded perspective at that.
who is also a bjj fighter looking for this xd
Thanks for watching!
Me too man BJJ schools should add this basic trows to their training programs
BJJ really need to work on standup
guys thank you for your positive replies , i unfortunately dont do bjj anymore since i switched to kickboxing 1 year ago , but i still miss bjj and i wish all of you luck in your journeys
🙋🥋
Nice!
Thanks for watching!
Osoto Gari - Good if the opponent's right leg is forward?
Ouchi Gari - Good if the opponent's left leg is more forward?
(Assuming you are gripping their right arm and left shoulder.)
It's always going to be hard to each the opponents rear leg. So yes, but you can also set people up to be thrown.
Amen❤
Thanks for watching!

I have a test soon so I need this video lol
Good luck!

Efficient Judo great answers. Last question! Does that mean it’s possible to do osoto gari with the ankles or is that mechanically inferior?
@@impolitikful I feel like that would just be injurious to the ankle.
thx verry mush🙌🫡

Thanks for watching!
do you sweep the leg that has the most weight or least weight?
All 'gari' or reaping techniques are based on attacking the leg that carries the weight. Otherwise the opponent is just able to step off the attack.
Is it fundamentally sound to reap with the leg on the side of the sleeve grip, as long as my head is on the opposite shoulder of the reaping leg?
I don't understand your question - if you reap the sleeve grip side, your just doing a kouchi-gari?
@@EfficientJudo I meant like in an R v R situation, reaping sleeve grip side with my left leg.
So left hand grabbing the sleeve, right hand on lapel, bringing uke's balance back on his heels, but left leg forward, right behind, reaping with the left leg and keeping my head on my right side.

my favorite osoto gari
Thanks for watching!
Every time I try sweeping the leg they don’t fall down. Its like im just kicking a stick why
Its hard to provide feedback without seeing what is happening - bit remember gari techniques are reaps and need to be forcefully applied, they're not sweeps / harai.

I normally don't complain about this stuff, but the volume is way too low.
Thanks for the feedback. We know. This was one of our first videos before we sorted out our sound recording. We've improved since then.
@@EfficientJudo It wasn't very efficient.
A microphone would make it a more efficient video.
Lol, yes - this was recorded in our first recording session - we've since upgraded our kit.
@@EfficientJudo No worries. Thanks for sharing.

@@EfficientJudo thanks for answer
Thanks for the info, but your volume is way, way down; to a whisper.
This video was one of our first, and we've made a lot of improvements in how we record and edit. The audio is much better in our newer videos.
Anybody able to get their volume high enough to hear this?
Nope 😞
Sorry for the volume issue, our audio recording wasn't as good as it should have been in our early recording sessions.
Can’t hear it
This is one of our first videos and the audio quality wasn't as great as we would have liked. The audio is there, it's just very quiet.
