      <image:title>Blog - Tomoe Nage Secrets!! – 3 Variations - Sode Tsurikomi Goshi or "Sode" for short is a very intense and powerful move that is mastered by some of the best Judoka past and present. This isn't an "in depth analysis" of the mechanics of the move itself - go check out the YouTube for that. This is something more, a conversation and education on implementing the move.  where it can be placed into your game or how to build a game around it. Above all it's WATCHABLE. not a 2 hour slog of minutia that will put you to sleep - a 20 minute exploration that can be implemented at your next practice. Enjoy!</image:title>

This isn't an "in depth analysis" of the mechanics of the move itself - go check out the YouTube for that. This is something more, a conversation and education on implementing the move.  where it can be placed into your game or how to build a game around it. Above all it's WATCHABLE. not a 2 hour slog of minutia that will put you to sleep - a 20 minute exploration that can be implemented at your next practice. Enjoy!</image:title>

      <image:title>Blog - Balancing Learning Styles: Traditional vs. Ecological Approach in Grappling - Sasae Tsurikokmi Ashi is one of the OG moves of Judo. Often overlooked in it's complexity because it is a "weak side" throw, meaning it goes opposite to the normal turn throw direction. When set up properly this move can be a MASSIVE throw itself, or when used as part of a larger turn throw game it can really augment your success. This video is part of our Private Lesson Series. A much more relaxed and consumable approach to learning Judo in the Video format. Let us know what you think too on IG!</image:title>

      <image:title>Blog - 5 Basic Judo throws</image:title>
      <image:caption>Ouchi gari is easy to coordinate in the beginning and to execute on a non-experienced opponent. Ouchi gari shown in this video in the standard standing version which takes a long time to master. If the off balance is insufficient it is easily counted by a skilled opponent. I put it in basics because it is one of the best techniques to set up other throws. Like the outside trip or Osoto gari.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - 5 Basic Judo throws</image:title>
      <image:caption>Osoto gari is easy to hit on an unskilled opponent, takes a long time to master and easily countered if off balance is insufficient. It is universally considered one of the fundamental techniques of Judo. I don’t think there is any grappling martial art that doesn’t include osoto gari in some form. *Ouchi gari and osoto gari work great as a combination. Ouchi gari is an inside trip, and osoto gari is an outside trip. They are both backwards throws.</image:caption>
