Product Description

Book Jacket

Positive attacking in throwing and ground work is at the heart of all the best judo. This is a fundamental attitude of world champions Katsuhihiko Kashiwazaki and Hidetoshi Nakanishi, who are now among the foremost teachers in Japan. But this boldness must be based on a sound technical understanding. Attacking Judo is a new concept in judo publishing based on simple drawings rather than long complex explanations. The main throws and ground work techniques of judo are placed in a context of combinations and counters. Crucial details of pull, push and direction of throw are indicated by arrows. All the techniques are arranged in sections which are both easy to absorb and to memorise. Attacking Judo emphasises classical Japanese judo yet teaches in a modern and accessible style. It is a book that will have a direct influence on everyone's judo practice, from beginner to black belt.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent guide to combinations and counters, 5 Dec 2000

By A Customer

As the title states, this book is a guide to combinations and counters used in Judo, covering transitions from both standing techniques and in groundwork. The book demonstrates each combination or counter sequence using a series of good drawings, with arrows in the drawings indicating the appropriate push and pull, and text summarising the key points. What impresses me about this book, is how the drawings and text manage to get the ideas across effectively in such a simple and uncluttered layout. Overall, this is an excellent book from these two former world champions.

5.0 out of 5 stars clear, well presented and truly useful, 10 May 2003

By A Customer

I've had this book for a few years and keep coming back to it. To my mind, it reflects the reality of randori competitive judo really well since it shows dynamic transitions between techniques rather than presenting them on their own. Like all good judo instruction its based on an understanding of balance and what happens to it when techniques get applied to someone whose really fighting back.

As an overview of what its really about (IMHO) hard to beat.

5.0 out of 5 stars Attacking Judo, 30 Mar 2009

By	D. Carter "Dan" (UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a fantastic guide for all Judoka, displaying various combinations and counters, to throws and some ground work techniques, it also has a useful glossary at the back for the beginners to the sport.

Its got good illustrations in with verbal descriptions that help explain those tricky areas.

I find this a useful tool to keep in your library, for Judoka, and practitioners of Jui-jutsu and MMA.
