Nick Yonezuka - Cranford JKC
My name is Nicolas Yonezuka and I have been doing judo my entire life. My father was a world renowned judoka from Japan and I was born into it. Competitively, I was on the 1980 Olympic team at 78kg. I was also a 12 time national finalist winning 5 national titles as well as various international titles. Currently, I am the head Sensei at Cranford JKC which has produced 7 Olympian’s to date and am training many up and coming Olympic hopefuls. Recently, I was the 2019,2020,2021 World and Pan American cadet and junior team coach for USA Judo. I started this channel to promote the importance of judo for any grappling sport or martial art and how judo techniques translate not only with Gi but without as well. The purpose of this channel is to teach concepts in judo that build a strong foundation of techniques for anyone to improve, from the beginner to the international competitor.

So good. Exactly like Lenny LeBlanc taught us.
I’m a 37 year old full grown adult man. 5 feet 11 inches tall. My neighbor’s little kid is only 8 years old, under 4 feet tall. He takes judo. I once pretended to attack him by doing what your opponent does in the first scenario. The boy threw me down flat! I couldn’t believe a little kid was able to do that. 😬😩
I'm 59 and recently retired. I would like to come there and have you guys train me for a week or 2.
Great clear instruction. One thing though. Please don't claim you have "complete control" and can "do whatever you want" once you have thrown someone and have top position or a head lock. Still A LOT an attacker can do to cause serious damage from that position, even if he ISN'T trained in ground work or Jiu-jitsu. This is of course because most civilized people defending themselves don't have SERIOUSLY INJURING their attacker as their main objective, while the attacker often times is looking to do just that. Normal law abiding citizens are often not as aggressive or psychotic as the individuals they find themselves trying to subdue. And even fighters who have trained in the dojo for years are not as accustomed to being struck HARD and VIOLENTLY repeatedly as some of these repeat offenders and continuing to attack. Please remind your students and viewers that you have to MATCH the aggression and activity even after you have the upper hand, because the mindset is the key. And a weak or overly confident mindset can be the opening a nearly defeated and contained attacker needs to hurt your seriously, produce a weapon or injure you despite being at a disadvantage. Enjoyed the video very much.
PS former NJ resident now in Miami and shortly headed for the southwest, glad to see Judo is still alive and well in Cranford. Props!
✅️👍👏👏👏
I started judo in January at 37 yrs old for self defense, body condition, and stress reliever. Haha. So these techniques are great for the streets. Glad you're showing us without the gi. I didn't even think about the elbow to use when doing osoto gari
Amazing video . Thank u
Yes judoka is one of the most effective fighting in the streets we’ll done excellent
you in muito good
Something to see Nick. I had to watch in slow motion. Thanks.
Wow! I've just found out a mine of gold here!👏👏👏👏👏
Box sings....
Why those throws are described as "to finish a fight"? I've seen UFC fight where similar throws were applied and that wasn't the finish (no knockout). So what does it means "to finish the fight"?
Think about these throws where the flooring is not meant for sport
@@nickyonezuka-cranfordjkc4931 But what will happens then? Will it break something? Will it knocks down?
nice video! i would scrap tomoe nage in the street though, i wouldnt want a high risk sacrifice move to go wrong and end up with a guy on top of me in case of failure. The other techniques if they fail have counter counters, so cool! just my 2 cents.... with jackets morote is my go to if they charge at me, maybe withmy leg sticking out for extra safety (like in a tai otoshi)
For this technique, the title should be: Effortless and simple one hand throw. Thank you for this video.
Judo helped me win a lot of fights. Balance is everything.
Awesome. As a Jitsun guy - they are all battle proven throws.
So in your way the leg goes back to the tatami and then goes up for uchimata ??? I have been trying it but still cannot get it, maybe my base foot is too far. Thanks in advance.
I always end up doing this one like uki waza but I like it and many people do it wrong (me included). Thanks for sharing.
Cool
I did judo and jiu jitsu "for fun" when I was a kid, 6 years total. I never thought I could use those throws outside the mats. And here I stumble upon this clip, now a fat dad in my 40s, and see all these throws I know how to do, and they're in the top five for a real situation? Whoa! It made me want to go back to training, thanks a lot for this!
This channel is way too good for this amount of views
Thank you so much sensei
I would recommend in a street fight…. Only use what you have practiced about 500 x or more. Keep it simple. The opponent will not stand there passively. You will be hit in the face and such. And unless you are used to getting hit in the face … Foot sweep. Major outer reaping. Both of these minor take downs do not require a gi. Then to scarf hold with an arm bar if needed. That’s it.
If you throw the first punch you’ll probably get charged with assault.
Push his Chin, thats the Karate / Japanese Jujitsu version of the Osoto, leaned it like that all the in the 1980s and 1990s
It's like sitting down while doing sasae tsurikomi ashi
These throws could seriously injure people, not recommended unless in a life or death situation.
How the fuck would judo help you in a street fight or being attacked in your own home.
Good to know. It's the same principle as in Aikido: put the attacker's weight on one foot, then throw in the direction of the foot line.
Who watched this whole video while mentally screaming "KUZUSHI"
MEEEEE🙋
@@041882 I know right😃
This concept is incredibly helpful. Thank you!
Can't wait to try it out!
useful stuff! would love to see a similar video for RvL
You’re incredible. You’re good. No 💩
Koshi Guruma was my go to technique in my younger days getting into the odd scrap in my Teens and early 20's ......closely followed by Harai Makikomi . Worked wonders .... never used ippon seoi Nage once on the street ..... you use what works for you . In competition my go to throw was either a Left handed Morote seoi Nage ,,but i would tuck my opponents Right arm into his body with my left elbow. trapping his ability to stop his fall...bit of a nasty one ....but it came about purely by accident as i'm not able to do the throw right handed due to a slight deformation in my elbow joint cause by an injury when i was 10.... so i adapted ..........my other throw i loved to use on tricky opponents was an Uki Waza .....not big scoring but would throw it in if i was struggling elsewhere .... and not many were using that throw that i saw at the time , so would catch people unaware .. 56 years ... Knees are both shot , right shoulder shot, right elbow still deformed ... fingers riddled with Arthritis ....had to give up Grappling 10 years ago as the Body Gave up on me .... I miss training and the Camaraderie with the Many Guys and Gals i trained with from 1979-2013. Age waits for no one unfortunately ...
I don’t agree for uchi mata. Weight has to be on Uke left left or minimaly evenly balanced for a clean ippon
Depends which uchimata
Excellent!
Hello Cranford JKC from a Jersey Boy, now in Califonia. I remember Cranford from my first days in Judo at Woodbridge Judo Kai and my TKD Sensei in Old Bridge trained there. I raised my three daughters On The Mat and our home Dojo is San Shi, down in Oceanside. I'm in San Jose now - home of lots of great Judo, including SJSU and their famous Coach Sensei Yosh Uchida and my Doctor Bob Nishime. Sadly rarely On The Mat now at 69 due to medical disqualifications, but I will always love it. Peace & Love y'all !
This is game changing advice for many of us. Thank you!! 👍
Thanks for your expertise. Great content for all martial arts and artists/students.
So true …
That's right, timing is everything in judo. Thank you for this new video.
Thanks a lot ! I'm sure there is also something logical like this for BJJ. Thanks again.
Love all of your videos Nicky.
👍👍

Excellent video - thanks. I learnt CCC when 14 at YMCA wrestling club in UK. All grown men apart from me and a feĺlow whose brother was a freestyle champion - Pat Maguire. Years later coached freestyle. I guess CCC is to freestyle what jiu jitsu is to judo - many actions allowed which forbidden in freestyle and of course punishing holds and submission. I had to "switch" to freestyle as only form recognized by BAWA. CCC much more variety even for takedowns. When you mention that wrestling disadvantaged against jiu jitsu I take it you are referring to freestyle and Greco Roman and not CCC. Thanks for wise advice to young fellows about fighting. I told my macho grandson to avoid situations like bars where a weedy psycho can take your eye out with a broken glass in a moment - I'd come across this in my years in the Royal Navy. I recommended take up a "combat" sport instead - which he did, taking a year off to go to Thailand, which helped him to "grow up".
great technics thank you on the streets any thing could and does happen .It would be great to practice these moves really good advice thank you
Great video for ken ken uchimata you've earned a subscriber!
