Hit Him With The Planet | Judo for Self Defense

Judo is probably the most overlooked martial art for self defense. Despite being a popular sport worldwide, and the origins of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Judo seems to be one of the least popular martial arts these days. Which is a damn shame, because Judo's emphasis on putting an opponent on the ground without striking him ensures that we remain the defender and not the aggressor.

Moreover, Judo's balance control (kuzushi), footwork, and overall aggressive philosophy (watch a Judo match. Despite being called "the gentle way," Judokas are some of the most hardcore competitors on the planet) creates a foundation that is transferable not only for self defense, but also for the Muay Thai clinch, for wrestling, for MMA, and any other combat scenario that involves grabbing on to another human being.

In this video, I am joined by Brad Tidwell - a Judo black belt with over 20 years of experience - and we adapt 3 classic Judo throws for no-gi, real life scenarios. Take a look, incorporate them into your practice, and share with your friends!
