Download or read book The Throw written by Danny Hicks and published by Fighting Films - Ippon Books. This book was released on 2022-12-19 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this first book from Superstar Judo’s guide to Throwing for Ippon, The Throw explores the different Tachi-waza systems used by many of the world’s greatest judoka. Understand how Olympic and world champions have developed their unique judo identities, with remarkable insights into their separate philosophies and approaches to scoring Ippon. Find out how Japan’s triple World and Olympic Champion Toshihiko Koga revolutionised the sport in the late 1980s and early 1990s, when he showed his incredible reverse style of judo to the world. Understand the incredible Total Judo system developed by Dutch Olympic Champion Mark Huizinga that was used to break a number of international judo records. Great Britain’s Craig Fallon reveals how his do-or-die attitude influenced his judo, whilst France’s Darcel Yandzi talks about the importance of movement and technique, and how he incorporates music into his coaching. Korea’s greatest ever fighter – triple World and Olympic Champion Ki-Young Jeon – remained unbeaten on the global stage. Don’t miss out on his incredible judo method, which includes multiple grip changes, feints and combinations. USA’s double Olympic and World Champion Kayla Harrison emphasises the balance between physical and mental preparation. The off-the-grip style of judo is best represented by France’s triple world and Olympic Champion Lucie Décosse. For a classical approach, there is nobody better to look at than Japan’s Keiji Suzuki. The double world and Olympic Champion made Ashi-waza an art form in men’s heavyweight judo. In contrast to Suzuki are the very unorthodox styles of Georgian and Mongolian judo. With an introduction to five different judoka, this is chance to learn about unusual grips and entries of attack. The Throw, and Book 2 – The Grip, are essential reading, forming the basis to all remaining books in the series. Incredible photographic sequences accompany most of the technique variations. These come from Fighting Films’ vast archive, with many of the images being shown for the first time. Fighting Films has been closely working alongside the world’s greatest judoka for over 30 years. Throwing for Ippon is the first project where all of this international technical expertise is compiled in one place. Presented by Superstar Judo, Fighting Films’ online coaching subscription site, the techniques can also be viewed in video format by clicking on a QR code at either the start or end of each book.

Book Olympism  The Global Vision

Download or read book Olympism The Global Vision written by Boria Majumdar and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-13 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The collection starts from the premise that Olympism and the Olympic Games make sense only when they are placed within the broader national, colonial and post colonial contexts and argues that sport not only influences politics and vice-versa, but that the two are inseparable. Sport is not only political; it is politics. It is also culture and art. This collaboration is a first in global publishing, a mine of information for scholars, students and analysts. It demonstrates that Olympism and the Olympic movement in the modern context has been, and continues to be, socially relevant and politically important. Studies focus on national encounters with Olympism and the Olympic movement, with equal attention paid to document the growing nexus between sports and the media; sports reportage; as well as women and sports. Olympism asserts that the Olympic movement was, and is, of central importance to twentieth and twenty-first century societies. Finally, the collection demonstrates that the essence of Olympism and the Olympic movement is important only in so far as it affects societies surrounding it. This book was published as a special issue of the International Journal of the History of Sport.

Book The Grip

    Book Details:
  • Author : Danny Hicks
  • Publisher : Fighting Films - Ippon Books
  • Release : 2022-12-19
  • ISBN : 0957080433
  • Pages : 30 pages

Download or read book The Grip written by Danny Hicks and published by Fighting Films - Ippon Books. This book was released on 2022-12-19 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this second book from Superstar Judo’s guide to Throwing for Ippon, The Grip explores the different Kumi-kata systems used by many of the world’s greatest judoka. Understand how Olympic and world champions have developed their gripping patterns and strategies to set up the opportunity to throw for Ippon. The Grip starts with an introduction to Kumi-kata and its huge significance within judo. This is followed by all technical content, with tuition from the champions, accompanied by incredible photographic sequences. Germany’s Olympic Champion Ole Bischof and Great Britain’s World Champion Craig Fallon emphasise the importance of body position and movement in the pre-gripping phase, with both judoka revealing their highly successful approaches. Off-the-grip judo, which is where techniques are initiated from either no grips, or with just one hand on the jacket, are presented by one of the masters of this style – France’s triple World and Olympic Champion Lucie Décosse. Japan’s Kosei Inoue and Korea’s Ki-Young Jeon - also triple World and Olympic Champions – give a masterclass in how to dominate gripping exchanges. Inoue reveals his methods of obtaining classical grips, whilst Jeon shows the benefits of keeping one hand free. Targeting an opponent’s favoured hand and grip breaks are brought to you by GB’s Euan Burton and Winston Gordon. One of the most dominant of all gripping scenarios is to pin the sleeve of an opponent. An expert in this field is France’s Ugo Legrand. Gripping strategies and tactics were one of the strongest areas of USA’s double Olympic Champion Kayla Harrison. Don’t miss the gripping patterns she used throughout her career to neutralise both right and left handed opponents. Also included is lapel feed tuition from Inoue, Jeon, Russia’s Kirill Denisov and Germany’s double World and Olympic Champion Udo Quellmalz, plus the quick gripping tempo of France’s Darcel Yandzi, and how Bischof, Fallon and Burton all use different Kumi-kata methods to control an opponent’s head. Finally, there is a chance to understand the highly unorthodox grip-fighting of Mongolian Judo, with three of their greatest fighters revealing the tricks and techniques that have helped give their country the reputation of being one of the most offensively minded in the world. The Grip, and Book 1 – The Throw, are essential reading, forming the basis to all remaining books in the series. All photographs come from Fighting Films’ vast archive, with many of the images being shown for the first time. Presented by Superstar Judo, Fighting Films’ online coaching subscription site, the techniques can also be viewed in video format by clicking on a QR code at either the start or end of each book. The author is Fighting Films partner Danny Hicks, who was IJF TV Director from 2009-2017. This guide is an essential for all judoka.

The book examines the story of judo for women and how the history of the sport has paralleled the cultural and social challenges faced by women in both the East and the West. It considers the issues of leadership and governance in contemporary women’s judo, and the obstacles to stronger involvement for women in the sport as a whole, as well as the rules and competition structures that shape the sport today. The book also looks at the tactical and technical considerations of coaching women in judo, and the significance of the coach–athlete relationship, as well as the physiology of the athlete – including the female athlete triad – and how that relates to training, performance, technique and skill acquisition. A concluding chapter presents short biographies of the pioneering female judoka Rusty Kanokogi, Ingrid Bergmans, Kaori Yamaguchi, Karen Briggs and Ryoko Tani. This is essential reading for anyone with an interest in martial arts or women’s sport and a useful resource for those studying sport history, sociology of sport, gender studies and sport development and coaching.
