MAT

 One of the things we have had on the NEXT List most of the year is the TDs from the Japanese Arts:



MAT
Karate sweeps
Judo Nage
Aiki pins Daito


As you know we don't do Mat every week, it is occasional and the primary purpose is NEWAZA, this year working on the RD and FD drills and the Fight Progression

For TD we use the 5 in the Standing series - shoot, clinch, leg td, shoot double leg, etc, as they are in JUJUTSU


The other three Japanese Arts we use the TD and throw methods from the appropriate range:


KARATE sweeps

These are like KB ABC sequences, with a throw or sweep involved - they include sweeping the lead leg as an attack or counter, catching a kicking leg to perform a throw such as an uchi mata or koshi nage - the difference from Judo throws is the range and that they work off strikes - they truly are KARATE THROWS - the finish is to do a punch or stamp kick, not to go down and grapple


JUDO NAGE

The Judo throws from the Kodokan GOKYO, which have been listed on the JUJUTSU Board - tie up with a Gi grab and throw from there - these then follow with a GATAME pin and grapple


AIKI pins DAITO - the AIKIJUTSU of the DAITO Ryu, as seen in AIKIDO and the SD section of KYUKUSHIN Karate - the same techniques that you know as immobilisations, IKKYO etc, taken to the mat with a specific pin - the practice here is to perform the WAZA as a full TD, them go down and pin the arm - this is a match to a JUDO throws which involves a GATAME pin


We have covered a lot of these in Class and some on the Grass and will continue into the Season
