The ultimate Judo manual for all trainees—from novice to advanced! Master instructor Neil Ohlenkamp has updated and expanded his best-selling Judo training manual for students at every level—from novice to advanced. Judo Unleashed! presents all the information needed by Judo trainees in a single comprehensive handbook! This authoritative guide covers all the techniques of Judo officially recognized by the Kodokan Judo Institute, the birthplace and international headquarters of Judo, as well as other information needed to improve and expand your knowledge of this exciting sport. Skill in judo can only be attained on the mat, working with partners in an organized training program under the guidance of an expert judo instructor, or sensei, which literally means ‘one who has gone before’. A sensei has been in your position and learned the lessons you seek. By providing a good example and demonstrating proper technique, a sensei helps you understand the techniques and acts as a model by which to gauge your own performance. You also learn from everyone with whom you practice, so seek instruction from a wide variety of people. Do not limit your training opportunities by being selective. You will soon see that even the model technique performed by your sensei may be modified to take advantage of your own strengths or body type. Likewise, the technique may vary depending on your opponent’s height, weight, movement or abilities. Knowing this, you should feel free to try different methods, but only after learning the basic principle of the technique and progressing well beyond the beginner stage. This book provides a reference for all the standard techniques of Kodokan Judo, but also gives the reader new ideas for techniques, variations, and training methods you may not see in class. Like practicing with your sensei, it will expand your understanding of judo, expose you to fresh ideas, and reinforce the basic principles of judo.
