Tommy - nice break falls from getting swept, and swept, and swept. Thank you for your sacrifice. We can’t train Judo or BJJ without our partners. Great video, hoping to try this in tonight’s class!
Excellent coaching. Saying only what's pertinent. I loved it. So many coaches start rambling or try to be funny while teaching, which is OK, but sometimes I find it very distracting and confuses the lesson. Great job teaching a savage sweep.
When I was first learning to grapple years ago there were no high-quality instructional videos like this one on RUclips. You had to wait until class or sparring day every week and practice on your own with a dvd/vhs or with friends in your garage. We are all very lucky to have guys like Owen Livesey on tap whenever we want to learn something. This guy's students are very lucky to have him as their teacher.
@@killerkendrothere was plenty of only ne instructionals that you could have downloaded for free. But most of it was not streaming, it was for you to download with torrent or something like that.
I love that you covered the detail about tense versus relaxed, and how it makes it easy to read someone if they don't know that detail. I talk about this ALL THE TIME in my class. Thanks for the great video!
I'm not a fighter but find this super fascinating. I love the dynamics of it all, especially the part about being relaxed, because there's nothing worse than the surprise of when you feel burst strength. I can totally imagine, "oh s**t, this guy's frickin crazy strong!" I wish I would have gotten into this 30 years ago when I was in my 20's. The instructor is built like a tank. Damn.
I attended a free class at Grip Game Jiu Jitsu in Denison, Texas and it was SO FUN! I would sign up if I could afford it. You guys are so lucky to have this. If there is anyone who is thinking about trying Jiu Jitsu my advise to you is start right now! Do not be scared and do not procrastinate, this is the best exercise in the world, it is amazing for the mind and the body.
The relaxed thing, it is really really important if you are going to use power and speed. I think some people know about it but not everyone and if you are tense it is like showing your cards. This guy gives a lot of good advice.
I can’t wait to try this! Thank you! 9 years of bjj, smaller guy guard player. Having a lot of fun mucking around with stand up recently. I don’t have much cardio, so anything sneaky like a foot sweep is so appealing. Even if I only ever learn to hit them on small white belts, what a good time haha
Watched this video a few months ago and it’s become one of my favourite takedowns, been drilling it most sessions, I’ve landed it clean a few times but the option to go to the front headlock is awesome
We have a very similar sweep in the Muay Thai clinch, but instead of the undertook in this style we would use the same hand on the lat and drive up while pulling on the neck, or like you describe the collar tie. The rest is pretty much the same
@Andrew Onymous I don’t know the reasoning behind why they can’t use judo throws. As far as I’m aware they have never been allowed, but some trips and sweeps can be vague in where the line is drawn. 100% no hip style throws, I think the confusion is when trying to hook with the heal or trip with the heal. You can use the instep to sweep or you can lock the calf with the heal, but it is illegal to trip with heal however you do see some fighters get away with some variation of this. So yes it can be frustrating. I guess if it was allowed it would pretty much become sanshou with knees and elbows, which would look pretty cool actually.
@@VikingFightFitness It is generally thought to be political. Thailand was essentially colonized and invaded by Japan during the early 1900s, and judo began to be introduced to Thailand. Throws that are distinctively Japanese/judo-like were banned (hip throws, or hook trips, like osoto gari). Throws that overlap (e.g., sasae tsurikomi ashi in the video) are legal. Sanshou has hip throws because they are found shuai jiao, which is debatably the source of Japanese jujutsu/judo (these things are blurry though).
@@hukit0 That’s awesome thanks mate. I’ve been fighting and training in in and out of Thailand since 2005, and been teaching it for a while now. No one has ever been able to explain why certain trips and throws are illegal, myself obviously included. When I have asked trainers in Thailand they say it’s just a foul ha ha. So your explanation makes perfect sense. 🙏 thanks
Simple explanation, well demo'd multiple times, basic questions and subtleties covered, no long intro, and straight to the point. Liked and subbed thank you for this and Thank you to the Uke.
Was like a science teacher breaking down the formula on the chalkboard, piece by piece, point by point...this guy is a scientist, but in grappling....AWESOME JOB. THANKS
I watched this two days ago, and I executed it today on the mats! I’m not sure how spot-on was my technique, but I rehearsed the motions, and today I got it.
He's just one of the best stand-up grapplers in the world 😅 elite level, in fact you see him competing on all top events (ADCC, Polaris and so on). He's a legend.
One of my absolute favourites but I only do Gi. I swear I can see the surprise on their faces as they go down which is my favourite part. Great tutorial.
@@mattpatt199 I personally grab a high grip on the right lapel, and left sleeve. It then always initiates the push pull and then it’s the timing. Which is as always the hardest part and I’m no expert by any means. I do BJJ and we have a really high level judo black belt that trains with us and I believe this is how he does it. But to be honest he could probably do it without using his hands! It’s sparring tonight so hopefully I will be able to get someone. All the best.
Very nice technique, application, and reversal! I use a very similar technique I found through wing chun training of all things. I do use the instep simply disrupting my opponent's balance. Very nice!
There is a lot of good advice in this video for Muay Thai folks, I use this (similar) sweep from the body lock in Muay Thai. There is a lot here I can apply to my game, thank you!
Because it’s easier to show the proper technique with resistance. You could do it with someone the same weight. It’s just a little easier to maintain control while guaranteeing a demonstration of the technique while still being under some pressure.
This Is some good information.. your set up is nice and you are correct about relaxing and then tensing up. I see so much junk technique on the Internet and people who don't have a good background in grappling think it's good. This is good technique .
Excellent instructional. I'm going to have to look up other stuff from Owen, I really like his style of teaching this. I'm a halfway decent judoka and still got plenty from his style of teaching it no-gi. With the gi I loved high grips and lifting the opponent as I turned, but can't do that in no-gi.
Great details. Classic sasae is done on the sleeve side but from my experience it works best attacking the other side like done here. It's my favorite ashi waza to do to people who are inexperienced with judo. Love the headlock counter too, can't wait to try it.
Very nice brother! I had several judokas on my collegiate wrestling team and their movement patterns were quite similar to this. They were great wrestlers too, or else they wouldn’t have been D1, but they had a bunch of sequences off blocking shins and feet and I constantly fell into their traps, lol! Good stuff!
@@pgjudo So is osoto gari and countless other techniques favored by world-class athletes, who certainly know more about when/how to use it than beginners; what's the purpose of your comment?
You should show and train both sided attack. By attacking on left and right sides once each time, to get ust to be both handed, not only right handed person. Its gives great advantage in fight
Tommy - nice break falls from getting swept, and swept, and swept. Thank you for your sacrifice. We can’t train Judo or BJJ without our partners. Great video, hoping to try this in tonight’s class!
I would assume it's from the judo he mentioned early in the video
Bjj no stndup lol
Mon guide me disait toujours qu'il fallait un maso et un sado pour faire de belles démonstration.
😂
@@bobkk-ev5lsbjj has standup
Sasae tsurikomi ashi is the throw he's executing. Pure judo
I wonder if the guy in the video is aware of this?
@@1969mmoldovan 0:10 he mentioned it as sasae. He is aware of it but skipped to mention tsrikomi ashi
@@1969mmoldovan the guy in the video is called Owen Livesey. He won a gold medal at the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow in the Men's 81kg judo.

A very good one as well.

Trained with the Carlson Gracie guys last weekend, amazing gym great energy and next level coaching, very jealous
There were plenty of high quality instructional videos with these techniques. It’s entry level Judo; Sasae Ashi.
Yep same. 15yrs in, there was nothing back in. Kids these days are spoiled now. Hence why they’re getting good so fast

@@MMABeijing no there wasn’t. Not in Australia
Breakfalls are always key for training. It's great to see more widespread use of judo throws.
Very nice demonstration and explanation of the technique with a charming accent. Thanks!
The simplest techniques are often the most effective, especially when explained as clearly as this! Very succinct, keep it up!
Thanks for this. I hit this sweep today at a comp and it led me straight to winning.
Awesome application of multiple principles shown here: the push/pull, controlled relaxation, engaging the hips, breaking posture. Well done.
I find it hard to take martial art instructors seriously who like to use people half their size to demonstrate on.
I love that you covered the detail about tense versus relaxed, and how it makes it easy to read someone if they don't know that detail. I talk about this ALL THE TIME in my class. Thanks for the great video!

This is great - we did this exact sweep, with the set up for the front headlock, last night. REALLY helps to see it again to help cement it.

This throw is more of a foot-block (Sasae Tsurikomi Ashi)- it's one of my favorites and very effective.
Great explanation and evolution of the technique. That head-lock escape - awesome.
Great video, and phenomenal instructor. Thanks coach!
Really good video. My old coach used to always show the move as well as the counter and you did a really good job of that I think. Thanks man.

Concise and accurate delivery of a gi technique adapted to no-gi

Pure gold in this breakdown. Nice one, Tommy!
Thank you for spreading the message of beautiful uchi-komi and kuzushi to these BJJ heathens. Sasae is classy Judo
Thank you for taking the time it takes to understand these techniques

Exactly how I was taught it as a judoka. Except of course the grip. One of my favourite throws. Good stuff.

Beautiful Judo Sweep!
Good to see homage to Judo
Best explanation to a throw I've ever seen. Thank you!
(he's grabbing the far deltoid though instead of the far hip in the end)
Great Video man !! Especially you showing it again !! from all the angles !!!
Love it, one of my favorite throws, Sasae Tsurikomi Ashi. Very nice no gi application. Sweet
Great stuff! All the details are spot on.
Great stuff! Never seen any of this before and its all no gi which is what im interested in
A classic Judo throw. Mica Galvao uses very often. Great video. Great coach.
Very nice technique, application, and reversal! I use a very similar technique I found through wing chun training of all things. I do use the instep simply disrupting my opponent's balance. Very nice!
Sick techniques! 🤼♂️
This is Judo 101, Hiza-guruma!
Best explanation of underlying concept I've seen in a long time
Very fluid. I love when takedown looks effortless.
That looks like a sweet sweeping throw! I will start working on it next class with the Guys, Thank You!
Pure gold!
There is a lot of good advice in this video for Muay Thai folks, I use this (similar) sweep from the body lock in Muay Thai. There is a lot here I can apply to my game, thank you!
This is great. So many options for different mma and self defence attacks.
Why is it always a big guy using his techniques with a little guy
Because it’s easier to show the proper technique with resistance. You could do it with someone the same weight. It’s just a little easier to maintain control while guaranteeing a demonstration of the technique while still being under some pressure.
Me trying this on my 260lb Professor 🤣🤣 NOTTTTT happening.
Because the strength is the best technique of them all
This Is some good information.. your set up is nice and you are correct about relaxing and then tensing up. I see so much junk technique on the Internet and people who don't have a good background in grappling think it's good. This is good technique .
Great throw & follow up techniques, & great explanations & demos, very straightforward & easy to follow. 👍
Thanks for sharing Sir, me too I love this nage, it's so many years I use it in sparring and teaching🙏💪🥋
Lovely technique, on of my favourite throws
Love it! Thinking about trying it with an overhook. Not as good a grip but easier to get.

Great details. Classic sasae is done on the sleeve side but from my experience it works best attacking the other side like done here. It's my favorite ashi waza to do to people who are inexperienced with judo. Love the headlock counter too, can't wait to try it.
Hello.
Is it possible to perform this technique against a person who is heavier than you?
@@buhoymag Yes. As long as you get them to move in the direction of the throw (off balance) it will work.
