I'm not sure why he's wearing a white belt, he's clearly far from a beginner

@@richardoscar6536 idk if its true but i read somewhere that kodokan doesnt use colored belts

I was just thinking the same.

Did u sed how he entered that seoi nage? Although hes a white belt. The dynamic movement far exceeds his belt color

correct children under 12 yrs wear colored belts and Dan Grades wear black belts

You would have these black belts from the kodokan whimpering like little girls who lost thier dollies!

@@lunam7249 lmao that hurts me. I have heard about that happening a few times but have never seen it myself (fortunately). It seems like the people that i trained with were actual martial artists! If what you're saying is true, Judo is turning into damn BJJ :'(

@@lunam7249 Kodokan used to be badass. #MakeKodokanJudoGreatAgain

I was sarcastically joking my friend!!!!...I have met some of these guys from the kodokan....generations of judo....rondori as babies in diapers....they would absolutely kill anyone...many go the Olympic path....watching 2 black belts is one thing....you rondori with black belt is quite another painful experience..I have seen them roll up and pretzel USA state champion grapplers in less than 10 seconds!!terrifieing

A Japanese judo master went to Brazil gracie family in 1970s and the Japanese judo master taught them judo.....now bjj claims they invented it....lol! Hahaha!

From age 12 all Judo-ka are white belts . To obtain the rank of Sho Dan they must first earn points competing against other white belts of the same or similr age at the monthly Tsukunami Shia held at the Kodokan and then perform Nage-no-kata and gain a passing grade.

That SHOULD be the hallmark of a black belt IMO: applying the student -pensum techniques out of nowhere from a variety of angles and positions with subtlety. However, many western schools nowadays seem to be pretty lax with their standards and I've come across some "black belts" that fight like green belts (middle of the way to black). Edit: I blame sports-oriented training, i.e. "you only need to get good at one technique !" and other nonsense.

Yes...both are.... the white is learning offencive teqnich ,,black belt learning , mercy and teaching strategies...it's very good for both..i recommend it..I'm black belt and always enjoy it

Believe me, he is. Every time I rolled with someone who was so much better than me but allowed me to walk around and feel around (as this guy is doing), I got so much better at awareness and positioning, even if it doesn't look that way. What the white belt needs to do is go fight other white belts after this encounter.

Because they’re not in a competition, and it’s just going to get pulled out again

Also a disadvantage leaving his gee like that!

this is just randori session just enjoy the vid bro
