Principles for Becoming Strong Even Without Natural Talent
Revealing the secrets behind winning the “World Triple Crown” and the All-Japan Grand Slam.
How can an ordinary person still achieve victory?
“Jujutsu no Osaho” (Jujutsu etiquette/principles) is a system I developed by building a way of fighting in jujutsu that suits someone without exceptional physical ability or natural athletic talent.
In this DVD, I explain the mindset and principles for becoming unquestionably strong, presented as a top-level guide.
(Hirokazu Takamoto, Head of Takamoto Dojo)
This does not apply to those who are naturally gifted with extraordinary talent.
CONTENTS
Principle 1: When the opponent pulls guard, avoid entering guard if possible
- Sit down as-is
- Get pulled into closed guard
- Get targeted with submissions
- Get trapped inside guard
- Cannot attack unless you break it
- Maintain balance and stay standing
Principle 2: When the opponent pulls guard, do not post your hands on the mat or extend only one hand forward
- Posting the hands on the mat
- Extending only one hand forward
- Establish a solid base
Principle 3: If you are pulled into closed guard, establish a base and break the guard with your knee
- Trying to pass without breaking (e.g., “São Paulo pass”) — bad option
- Attempting a cross collar choke without breaking — bad option
- Pushing the legs with your hands — bad option
- Build a base
- Create a stable structure (“box”)
- Break the guard with your knee
Principle 4: Once the guard is broken, stand up
- Staying seated the entire time — bad option
- As soon as it opens, immediately stand up
- Repeat principles 3 and 4
- Break guard while standing
Principle 5: First, step over one of the opponent’s legs
- Staying between both of the opponent’s legs — bad option
- Step over either leg
- Stand on the inside edge of your stance
Principle 6: Do not put your knee on the mat with your base leg
- Both knees on the mat — bad option
- Keep the base leg fully extended and strong
Principle 7: In half guard, underhook the armpit
- Underhook with the arm
- Underhook with the elbow
Principle 8: If you cannot underhook, use a kimura grip
- Do not rely on the biceps
- Flatten the opponent and free your leg
Principle 9: Do not use scarf hold (kesa-gatame)
Principle 10: Keep pushing even after securing a pin
- Think of your body like a needle
Principle 11: Move like you are spreading butter
- Losing connection and space between the body
- Stay connected and move smoothly, like sliding rather than separating
