Top judo black belt teaches BJJ blue belt (Justin "JFlo" Flores seminar)

Justin "JFlo" Flores put on a judo seminar where I got to learn some interesting techniques that I've never seen before. Join me as I try to see what I can pick up from this lesson put on one of the modern day judo greats, as I grapple with (pun intended) a recent AC joint separation.
This seminar happened on March 30th, 2024, at CJ Judo, owned and operated by lifelong judoka Chuck Jefferson.

    Correction: at 9:51 I cut the conversation and voiceover in such a way that made it sound like Syria was saying the grip itself was illegal, but after a couple comments, I realize that misrepresents what she intended (which was that just stiff arming there would result in a passivity penalty). Thanks for pointing that out in the comments!

    Was cool to see Jflo's take on ECO and how it applies to Judo. Him saying it's more applicable in wrestling makes sense but I honestly feel it's because the coaches in wrestling have been more open to experimenting with it. Finding a judoka who is unfavorable to uchikomi (from a results perspective lol) is unheard of. Judo is more rooted in its traditions and I can't help but believe that plays a role in how coaches teach. Flowing and playing around isn't a foreign concept in Judo but ECO adoption at the cost of drilling will be a super challenging. Great video! These have been really fun to watch. Reminds me of my Judo days

    I'm really enjoying watching this journey into judo you're on. The coach seemed really good, and obviously on top of his game. His comment about learning the techniques and developing a quick twitch so that you use them is spot on. The Yoko tomenage is known as the Karen Briggs version which she popularised in the 80s/90s. She was a bit of a legend, and managed to pin her opponent despite having just dislocated her shoulder. She was a tough cookie.

    @@joshbeambjj Can't remember now. One thing about developing the muscle memory and building up your quick twitch, quite often, when you throw and everything perfectly, you don't know what throw you have used. I have often had to ask what did I just do? Despite thinking that I had used say a tia toshi, I'd actually used sode tsurikomi goshi. I had two ways of training in randori, one I would have a throw in mind that I was working on and try to incorporate that, the second, I would go out with an empty mind and just use let my body react to the situation. Anyway...good luck on your journey.

    This video was great bro! Question, could you do a video on how the culture/etiquettes differ between BJJ schools and Judo schools? I’m currently at my purple belt in BJJ and I’m stoked to put on a white belt joining a judo school! Though I feel apprehensive that I will look foolish coming from a “chill” school into a more disciplined culture. Would I look somewhat foolish? Or has it been your experience that Judo student will be just as friendly as your hippy friends at BJJ? Thanks for your time.

    Thanks man, that’s good to hear. I guess more specifically, at times I see a lot of bowing. Whether students are exiting/entering the mats or dojo. Or even before training. Where as my BJJ school is just show up ‘fist bump’ and train. I just would not want to appear disrespectful to the Judo etiquette. I just honestly don’t know how to do it ha

    The concept of an experienced judoka that has never done uchikomi (repetitive practice, or drills) is quite foreign. Your body has to perform the correct movement by feel (without thought) and make micro adjustments throughout, and it takes tens of thousands of proper repetitions to get there. I think you'll find that you can do small micro-games around things like movement, positioning, and kumite (gripping), but to throw a trained opponent you also need the grind of uchikomi and nagekomi. He seems to indicate that is where he does this in his brief answer. Oh, also the open side of your knot should face to your left. Later!

    Awesome video. I'm so jealous, I'd kill to go to one of his seminars (I'm in the uk, alas) That grip is not illegal but if you stiff arm against the hips with it you'll get a passivity shido. It's just not a great grip as it doesn't offer the benefits of a high collar grip or proper belt grip. Look up Cal Jones Judo constraint based approach if you want to see something like the ecological approach applied to judo.

    On a different note, this is another reason why I love Judo so much. You’re a relatively small KZreadr and these Judo greats are giving you their time with no issues and not talking down to you at all. In BJJ if a white were to ask most black belts these questions while trying to film for their channel, it would be a lot different. The Judo culture is pretty chill and welcoming. BJJ is very clicky and if you’re not in, you’re definitely out.

    9:51 nothing about that grip is illegal. its not in the rules. I can see why she misinterpreted the rules though since in order to grip that low people tend to stiff arm more. You will get called a stiff arm defensive penalty for this, there's no penalty for that grip. Its the same kinda penalty as if you stiff armed in a LvR lapel grip.
