What are better Judo throws for those employing a lower, wrestling type stance opposed to the traditional upright Judo stance?

 

[arnisador]

This is always frustrating. But, some throws still work. I like Tai Otoshi from this position--get them pushed back a bit, then when they step forward, do the technique.

 

[Ubermint]

Sumi Gaeshi and variants of Tomoe Nage. Or, in my native tongue, guard sweeps.

1. Drop Seionage
2. Yoko Tomoe nage
3. Sumi Gaeshi/Hikkomi Gaeshi
4. Ken Ken Uchi Mata
5. Tai Otoshi

In that order - In my opinion.................

 

[Kenpojujitsu3]

1. Drop Seionage
2. Yoko Tomoe nage
3. Sumi Gaeshi/Hikkomi Gaeshi
4. Ken Ken Uchi Mata
5. Tai Otoshi

In that order - In my opinion.................

Excellent. I'd have rank the Tai Otoshi a little higher myself but excellent none the less

 

[NotQuiteDead]

Uki waza.

 

[bbaamm]

I choose that order because that is the order I teach guys from other arts like submission grappling or bjj to start them off.............Taio is one of my tokui waza but I find it hard for some to wrap themselves around right off the bat. I have been able to send people back to thier home school and catch clubmates with drop and sumi after one class thus building confidence standing. I like to give yoko because its safe when the grappler sprawls hard. YIJ, BBAAMM

Given the above qualifiers I understand your order more. Totally Agreed.

I have always liked kata guruma or uchi makikomi. They have always worked in the past. IMHO.

Man!!!! Kata Guruma!!! I drill that one everyday and didn't even think about that on the forum because I was thinking of it in the sense of the firemans carry variation...DUH!!!!!!!!!!!

I will try to put this question to the test next time on the mat. I don't see why 80% of the "typical" Judo throws could not be done from this position. It affords hara being lower than the opponents' and enhances balance. Hmmm......

 

[Henderson]

I do love a good Sumi Gaeshi !!! :EG:

 

[jujutsu_indonesia]

Yoko Otoshi will do nicely. If it fails, you can go directly to the Dojime/Guard position and stay safe.
