    How can you pull him towards you to then push him in the opposite direction to throw. Questionnable kuzushi for the technique. Might work on very light opponent.

    I'm not so sure most women can over power a much larger and stronger man. I would teach them awareness. Where not to go and when not to go somewhere. I'd also teach them to run. Very few 120 pound women can take on a 200 pound male attacker no matter how much karate they learn

    I took judo for years, from preteen on. How to land, & how to roll were among the 1st elements. Balance is of upmost importance. This girl is very impressive. I too was taught to let your opponent come to you, then taken him down. Her method of going down & taling your opponent with you, using tour weight & theirs againgst them is classic. Akido(?) is very similar, only Akido focuses heavily on the Chi (aka Ki) your inner self or life force. Not many accomplish this to perfection, it takes years & years. Combining different techniques makes for a formidable defence. A good fighter doesn't look for a fight, but he's rather prepared to do battle if confronted. My aspect in Akido are the hand grabs & pressure points (what the Navy calls Shore Patrol tricks) If you know these tricks, they are the be defence next to avoidance. As I taught my kids, take the long way around & avoid a problem, but if your cornered & no avoidence is possible, fend them off if possible, if not, taken them down, & then walk on. Generally they leave you alone afterwards.

    Good demonstrations of the various falls. But for slapping the mat on the back rolls, I was trained (and have always successfully practiced) to do it sooner so as to 'break' the momentum of the fall, not wait until your momentum has come to a stop. It's the same concept as a proper breakfall. That's just how I do it. One note here that my sensei (who was sent to Thailand over 50 years ago by O'Sensei) always bemoans is people who slap that mat every time out of habit. He is always adamant that you should only slap the mat if you have to to break your momentum. Otherwise, he said that your roll should be a quiet one.

    In Judo we do Uchi Komi Drills for a very important reason. What you're seeing here is six uchi komi drills and one throw. If we throw our training partners every single time we'd have no more training partners and we'd grow much older with wear & tear on our bodies than is normal for Judoka. Judo is very hard on the body, as you may imagine, and the founder Jigoro Kano was a genius in that he understood the way to cultivate kuzushi and proper muscle memory w/out too much repetitive throwing, resulting in damaged bodies, was to practice hours, months, years of Uchi Komi Drills w/out throwing our classmates too much. Uchi Komi Drills (which don't end in a throw) are the key to mastering Kuzushi in Judo. kuzushi is the key to achieving effortless throws. If you should like to learn Judo and understand these concepts better please contact your nearest Judo club. . .Sometimes they can be found meeting on a College Campus, at a local YMCA, renting space in another martial art school or MMA gym. Like most martial arts, what you're seeing as a spectator isn't what you think it is. Just like chinese gungfu and Okinawan kara te forms are not what western martial artists believe them to be. They are primarily meant to be trained extremely slow, under dynamic tension, as isometric training to thicken and strengthen tendons. Secondarily they're meant as a method of programming neuropathways in the brain and muscle memory. Another example, very few western FMA and Japanese Jujutsu practitioners understand, is that hammer fists were never meant to strike the head empty handed and risk a broken distal end of the 5th metacarpal. . .These movements , taught empty handed, were only meant to be used w/a Filipino dulo dulo weapon or Japanese yawara weapon. Much of what's seen, misunderstood, then taught completely wrong, in the west by pseudo-experts gets propagated for so long that the truth is lost. . .never passed down. For the presumptuous students & observers many older combat arts are being disseminated improperly and lost. And for ego & pride they refuse to take correction from those whom still know. . .Thus much knowledge is being lost though much disinformation is being spread via the interweb.

    I don’t know about iaido sparring but as a kendoka practitioner, in a fight, you have to react to what the opponent is going to do and respond accordingly, especially since in iaido it’s their entire bodies which are the target, not the kote, do, men and tsuki only.

    It looks more like they're purposely going at a slower pace for safety and to make it more about positioning and reacting smoothly, rather than emphasizing speed, power, and reaction time like you would in a competitive situation or a "real fight".

    Way too Structured and Rigid....Not loose, too Tight! It is better to Flow----Not go through rigid, stifling movements, that only serve to Constrict the muscles. And holding that "Off hand" on the hip is just Useless! We should always train our mind to Keep BOTH hands in FRONT of us, because THAT'S where the opponent is.

    Kata , like all forms, are meant to be performed slowly under dynamic tension as an isometric exercise to primarily cultivate thicker, stronger, tendons to prevent the injuries so common to westerners , such as torn rotator cuffs, and secondarily as a method of cultivating deeper neuropathways and muscle memory. It's like watching a classical guitarist practice scales then criticizing them for not playing a song. If you were a lifelong traditional Okinawan Kara teka you'd understand these things. Humans often speak w/authority on things they know very little about. Watching KZread will never make one an expert nor reveal the inner teachings of eastern unarmed defense biomechanic training. In the west the focus is upon training muscles. In the east it's traditionally been about training tendons. But tendons get very little blood flow via regular kinetic strength training, power lifting, etc. Any physical therapist will tell you the tendons get more blood , which leads to healing and strengthening, via two methods: 1. Static Holds. Static stress positions. 2. Isometrics very slow moving dynamic tension exercises. Both of which we utilize very much in traditional eastern unarmed combat defense training. . .and which are often disregarded by western martial artists & combat sports athletes as 'useless' because they lack the knowledge of the true purpose of the training. And they pay the cost of it by having rotator cuff surgeries, hip joint repairs and knee joint repairs. Now you know.
