So, I had the privilege of teaching a judo seminar at the new judo club at Union University this past weekend. We started off with deashi barai. No big surprise there... Kano placed it first in the gokyo so that's where we start. Turns out it is a great place to start because,
- It is just about the first throwing technique you can get to when uke gets inside touching range, and...
- Deashi sets up all other throws.
Want to get better at all your other throws at the same time? Spend some time on deashibarai.
