My teacher (we're both Small Circle Jiu-Jitsu guys) doesn't think of a Japanese style THROW as a THROW. He says it's really a 'TRIP' or a slight imbalance to cause the guy to move. Your mentioning of the slight amount of rise in your Uke is EXCELLENT, bro. You're absolutely right: if the guy is off the mat even by a little bit, the your kazushi is working and you could literally let that guy go and he will be off balance and hit the floor. Great channel, bro. I learn a lot by watching your really simple, straightforward explanations. Much thanks and keep up the good work.
Thank you Travis. I am working on cleaning up my ippon seonage. I have been told many a time to use my legs and not my back. To load uke. Actually, I was not grasping the concept of loading. I will drill this uchikomi exercise as I continue my judo journey. Lastly, I recently discovered your channel and I love your content. Your explanations are simple. Keep ‘em coming! Regards!
Do you think this concept would also apply for no-gi/wrestling throws? They never break it down this way when teaching a hip toss or an arm throw, but i guess it would alao make the throw more energy efficient?
My solution as a small guy: I drop my height. I bend the knee a little even if you have to take a slight step forward just to get him moving. Works every time. Usually tall boy grabs in panic to gain balance and you just fall with him stuck to you for O Kesa Gatama or something like that. Before he knows what's up, you pin him/her. Works every time and will work if you're aware of that panic response.
You really are a fantastic teacher. Breaking down the details and explaining why rather than just how.

You explained the "how" very well. I also appreciate that you explained the "why" as well as the what not to do. This helps tremendously!

Ditto. Lightbulbs go off for me.
This is fantastic stuff. Any advice for a recreational brown belt who still struggles to throw/commit to throw during randori?
Awesome bro

Hi Travis please can you upload a video of you doing randori with Rian Russo?

Great video. How do you get the lift vs a taller opponent?
