torite kihon goho
This involves 5 responses against grabs to the gi collar.
This training comes from a traditional Jujutsu ryu and goes back centuries. We are able to give it a modern application as the 3 most common attacks in a street fight are:
1. Collar grab and reverse punch
2. Reverse punch
3. Double collar grab
Obviously people don't wear gi these days. But in winter you will most likely be wearing an overcoat or a leather jacket. If I am standing outside a nightclub at 11pm in November I certainly will be.
So I dress accordingly.
So I expect my collar to be grabbed
So I train accodingly
Make sense?
