It religiously follows the teachings of the great architect of Judo, 'Professor Jigoro Kano'—a master who has always tried to expand a Judoka's education and encouraged his students to apply their own minds to inventing new moves and counter moves. In striving to achieve Professor Kano's aims, one can only begin to understand the true mechanics of the sport of Judo as a self-defense mechanism and, indeed, the creed that underscores this martial art. In this book, the author shares a brief history of Judo and how it has become a way of life for him—a passion that he wishes to share with the people around him. As well, My Judo Counters & Combinations - Volume 1 aims to explain and provide visual examples of Judo Methods which include techniques—from the basics methods from easy foot sweeps to hips throws, followed by 3-4 counters and combination for each method. The easy step by step photos will guide you through a world not published before, making it one of the must volumes to have at home or at the do-jo Judo is an acquired art and once one is trained in its mechanics, it will become a lifetime skill that will enrich his or her life. This is not a beginner's training book. It would be best used as a training and education manual designed to compliment one's study of the sport of Judo such as the course of sports coaching. Most of the techniques shown can be used in all martial art type sport such as Judo, striking Jujutsu and full submission no rules contest.
