I like having someone ask a question because they aren't "getting" a move. The whole "I don't feel a lot of lift...should I?....so use to Ogoshi....how different is this....etc". It helps understand the granularity and similar questions I have involving a move to help better understand it as a whole.

Love this style of video - the troubleshooting stuff seems that it could be really helpful for other throws as well

Good teacher and I love to listen to other people's questions and have the teacher answer it, since I learn so much from that. More content like this is welcome.

i feel like we're sitting in on george's personal training sessions and I'm loving it. I feel like we're getting good teaching moments

From my understanding, harai goshi is neither "lifting" nor "blocking", it is "sweeping" after a light lift. So you would lift the other so far that there is not much weight left on the foot and then you sweep with your leg. If you are outside and you're blocking, you'll get ashi guruma. If you're far inside and you're lifting, it'll be hane goshi. I know the naming is not that important for competition, but I think it helps understanding the differences.

And if you are inside and sweeping, it's uchi mata. Basically as long as you are not being tested on a technique, a throw is a throw.

Hane legs will be different than Harai.

It's nice having a viewer surrogate help with the teaching be so-in depth.

This actually answers my question from yesterday. Thank you so much!

Sensei George, THANK YOU for asking this question! I have also struggled with harai for a long time. Always good to get more insight!

Almost at 100k brother, well done and much deserved ✊

Thank you for these great examples!

Always had trouble getting Harai goshi in competition. Great video

Harai goshi is hands-down my tokui waza. I like it because that lifting leg actually allows you to bend over at the hip even more, plus that leg serves as a block.

Think of Harai Goshi as a continuation of Uki Goshi. It helped me a lot.

The model of question and answer makes this video so good that i feel guilty that's free!

Brilliant video as always. Have you ever actually sent somebody full force Shintaro? Could you maybe do a video on generating power in throws and the spirit you approach Judo (and specifically throwing people) with and then also, for a noob such as myself, I don't think I've seen a video on how to land safely and how to mitigate force when being thrown from you so that would also be appreciated if you thought it was a topic worthy of discussion. Just some ideas if you're looking for something else to cover. Big fan of the videos, keep doing what you're doing :) Peace oot!

It s awesom!!!🥋😋

i wonder how long george has been training judo? they say i think i japan that a black belt means you are just begining to understand judo

Technically that kind of Harai shown at 1:42 is what I was taught to be ashi guruma, an ashi waza.. Guruma for wheel and ashi for leg. Check out Kenji Suzuki's ashi waza on superstar judo. Ashi guruma, o guruma and harai goshi kinda bleed into each other. Just semantics which don't really matter if you toss your opponent onto his back. kzread.info/dash/bejne/d595rKRtnJramLQ.html

Ashi Guruma, from my opinion is that you take it from out side the uke while Harai is from the inside.

@@m5a1stuart83 Yes, for the most part. Though, like many throw in judo, the positioning can change. My main takeaway between the two is the ashi guruma is a block (with maybe a slight push back) and the harai is a hip attack with the leg doing a lot of sweeping. The ashi guruma is similar to a sasae tsurikomi ashi, but just with harai positioning and a lot of turning. Especially when you start getting that crazy swinging, spinning cross step leg.

outside ashi garuma, inside half harai is how i teach it ??

Spring loaded floors definitely help, but KBI’s (Shintaro’s school) floors are not sprung.

My former coach always used to say to execute harai to the side (90 degrees) instead of over the back and it works. Also with this you change opponents direction in the way he/she does not expect

Break down the names, harai goshi (sweeping hip)is a sweeping hip throw. Ashi guruma (leg wheel) is a block on the lower leg that you wheel them over. Ashi guruma can also be done to the rear.

There is enough variation between the throws that the feet placement can be about the same. For hane, you would be better off closer to 90 degrees to uke as you make contact before executing the throw. But again, it is different for everyone.

feet placemen as in entry position or contact? because to put it really simple in "sweeping", harai goshi "wraps" the opponent and drives back, but in hane the knee goes out but the foot back in again, then springs to the outside. . Edit: and as for footwork, i can tell you harai goshi should resemble uki goshi. Hane goshi should resemble uchi mata

@cucciafr68

3 жыл бұрын

@@vittocrazi I mean position on contact. My style of uchi mata is similar to hane goshi in terms of I frame with my leg, but I frame the inside and sweep through vs framing the front and springing up or lifting up. But if uke moves it can become hane very easily.

Who the hell dislikes this?

So a 1.90+cm black belt just said he can't perform harai goshi...

Not a big fan of lifting throws in jiujitsu you end up giving your back and the guy behind you (as i was this guy too) is just like say no more and go for back ride mata leon or suplex back take in a split second.

You look much too young to be wearing that belt.
