Thank you Travis! My Dad and I are both Judo guys who were looking for ways to use our Judo for No-Gi. We loved your Mastering Takedowns for No-Gi DVD! It was awesome and helped a lot. I left a 5 star review on BJJ Fanatics, I hope that helps!
That part about letting go, posting the hands, keeping the hip contact, and just letting him be "wherever he is" is really helpful. I've lost too many koshi gurumas from clamping down and getting rolled over. Thanks!
Thanks. I especially appreciated the example of letting uke get bottom turtle. It's not going to go on the highlight reel, but there's a lot of possibilities from that top position in BJJ.
I've been waiting for Taio for No Gi my whole grappling life! Is gripping at the shoulder/triceps acceptable as well? I am having difficulty controlling wrists.
Thanks for this, Travis. In terms of the hold down, rather than doing a version of Kuzure Kesa Gatame, how about immobilizing Uke's head with a modified Kesa Gatame in which your right hand is turned on its edge (bottom edge on the mat, upper edge under Uke's neck; a kind of knifehand position) so that it is raising Uke's head off the ground to the extent he / she cannot move easily?
It’s possible and a great option! It’s just not one I would choose because I feel more comfortable with Kuzure Kesa. But I think it’s just personal preference for that
This is working very well for some of my athletes. The left foot back step after the skip is not commonly done in under hook offense in wrestling. It catches people off balance very effectively. There was an NCAA All-American from UPENN in the early 2000's named Yoshi Nakamura that was particularly effective with taio (and judo in particular). Here's a clip of him hitting o soto gari at a charity event from what we call over-under in wrestling. I wish there was more footage of him wrestling online. He was so fun to watch. ruclips.net/video/Lk6EHTUia-U/видео.html
Thanks for sharing travis perfect for my mma! Off of your underhook do you like to latch on to the shoulder during the throw or is it best to use a uppercut kind of movement like at 6:01 if you were training live? I suppose the main thing would be to pull once you get his reaction to create the kuzushi
Thank you for the no gi videos Travis. What judo no gi stading technique would say is most efficient against a crounched down freestyle wrestling stance? Thanks in advance
@@TravisStevensgrappling thank you, you are the best! Looking forward to it. I am a judo player and looking forward for efficient ways to apply my judo to no gi.
@@TravisStevensgrappling thank you Travis that will be amazing. What would you say are the top 5 low risk high reward judo techniques for no gi against wrestlers?(in a attack mode not counter)
My favorite most effective NoGi Takedown is pulling guard, either that or getting slammed by a wrestler works just fun. Both ways we end up on the ground
With the no-gi grips and the fact that the support leg (his left leg) can be much futher out when doing tai otoshi as opposed to harai. I think tai otoshi is easier from this position.
To each their own really. I'm more comfortable with Taio because it leads to a front head lock and your opponent has a lot harder of a time countering Taio then they do Harai or Uchimata!
Would you say no gi Tai otoshi is a low risk high reward throw? Which are your top 5 low risk high reward judo throw against people with a wrestling background?
Yeah I would say that. As far as my favorite ones I'm not really sure there are a lot of different styles so i don't know if I could just give a top 5 for low risk high reward.
@@ashemleibakngambamoirangch5416 The big mistake that people make with kesa is that they either sit or post their weight on their elbows when you should be driving your body weight into their ribs. The other common mistake is in grabbing the uke's gi with the collar hand rather than keeping it floating because the floating hand allows you to post to prevent turnover.

Hey Jesse, I'm glad you like the instructional. And thank you for submitting a video it was a pleasure to review!
@@TravisStevensgrappling thanks for reviewing it! I look forward to hearing it!
Big fan of Taio, cant wait to try this out nogi. Nice to see Blonde guy idk his bame, back in action as well 👍. Thank you both.
Yes Frosty is back!!!

I know what you mean at some point good enough is okay. It doesn't need to be a highlight takedown all the time.
Thanks. I especially appreciated the example of letting uke get bottom turtle. It's not going to go on the highlight reel, but there's a lot of possibilities from that top position in BJJ.
Travis. I’m a judo guy. Thank you very very much. You alter Olympic judo to work in BJJ!!!
It's my best attribute. Being able to blend the two sports together to achieve something special.
This is smooth, almost looked like an opening for a kouchi or a fake to one off the skip step. Crafty move.
I’m glad you the video!! There are so many options from that position.

Travis killed me when he said "then you look like an idiot" 😂
Thank you Travis!
love these no gi throw videos. To learn no gi throwing would you recommend doing freestyle wrestling, submission wrestling or judo?
Freestyle wrestling if you can.

It varies a lot but booth are great options! I find when I walk around I hold the collar bone in general though.
Nice technique. I'm suprised you throw it with ukes right foot back, thats the opposite of what i learned (but that also was with your usual gi).
Yeah everyone does it a little bit different. But at the end of the day you just have to make sure you drill it and training it.
Thank you for the no gi videos Travis. What judo no gi stading technique would say is most efficient against a crounched down freestyle wrestling stance? Thanks in advance
Sumi is usually my go too. I'll shoot a video on it.
@@TravisStevensgrappling thank you, you are the best! Looking forward to it. I am a judo player and looking forward for efficient ways to apply my judo to no gi.
It will be a week or so before I can get it shot but I’ll get it out to you.

LMAO! At the end of the day the two points don't matter when you plan on submitting everyone anyways.
Do you ever get concerned that the opponent will land on your knee?
It has never happened to me but I have heard of it happening to people.
I was taught this set up for harai..is it easier with tao toshi?.
With the no-gi grips and the fact that the support leg (his left leg) can be much futher out when doing tai otoshi as opposed to harai. I think tai otoshi is easier from this position.

We need to understand the proper Kesa gatame for this coach just a reminder i am still waiting Oss.
I believe it was shot and released already.
@@TravisStevensgrappling no coach the tutorial is how to escape kesa gatame i need how to do a proper Kesa gatame.

@@dan8085 great information thanks
Could you fake uchimata then put the leg out and trip ur opponent into taio?
