### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    An excellent Judo techniques book giving valuable advice
  

*by A***N on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 2 December 2011*

The techniques covered in this book are de-ashi-barai, okuri-ashi-barai, harai-tsuri-komi-ashi, and sasae-tsuri-komi-ashi. This book is 111 pages long and is extensively illustrated with many photographs demonstrating the techniques.The book begins with a chapter describing the author's own experience of ashiwaza and the techniques in the book. As a two time world champion and a leading coach in Japan, this chapter is very interesting. Following this short chapter is a chapter on the history of the techniques, showing when they were first described in ju-jitsu and then laterly by the founder of Judo Jigoro Kano.However the meat of the book really starts on chapter 3 with a discussion of the basics. This covers issues related to the sleeve (Hikite) and collar (Tsurite) grips, and also discusses the two judo players having either the same grip (Ai-yotsu) or opposing grips (Kenka-Yotsu).The next four chapters covers each of the techniques in detail. In each case the author focuses strongly on the hikite and tsurite grips and also whether the players are using similar or opposing grips. Combinations and counters are described, as are transitions into ne-waza (ground work). For every example the author provides detailed comments alongside a series of photographs.The next chapter describes training for ashiwaza. This chapter is interesting in that it provides a number of illustrated examples of how a player can practice these techniques alone. Also described is advice for practicing these techniques in randori, and interestingly a series of defences that can be used against ashiwaza.A small chapter on how the techniques might be used in self-defence follows, and then finally there is an illustrated section describing how the techniques have previously been used in competition. Of course being an older book the most recent example is from 1987.In conclusion, this book has many useful ideas and tips and I would certainly recommend it if you are looking for some new ideas particularly in randori.

    Another Masterclass
  

*by M***E on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 8 August 2009*

Just like the other reviewer, I am a tall and slim Judoka, and as such, tend to gravitate towards ashiwaza throws. The entire 'Judo Masterclass Techniques' range are excellent, and this book is certainly no exception.First a quick note about the author for those of you who are not familiar with him. Nobuyuki Sato is a two-time World Champion, and All-Japan Championship winner (as a lightweight). His descriptions, tips and personal outlook are refreshing and helpful. Black & White photos and diagrams are throughout, clear and easy to see.The throws covered in this volume are: De-ashi-barai, Okuri-ashi-barai, Harai-tsuri-komi-ashi and Sasae-tsuri-komi-ashi.Grips, footwork, combinations, counters and notes are included for all the throws.I was very impressed that there was a self-defense section included, demonstrating how to use the techniques covered in a street situation. The self-defense aspect of Judo is often omitted from books, and it was a pleasant surprise to see it covered here.Overall, this book is highly recommended for both advanced-level and beginners looking for a deeper understanding of the mechanics and nuances of the techniques within.Essential for your Judo library!

    Very good!

Ashi waza is the great equalizer in a fight with big, intimidating opponents.  A must for any serious judoka or martial artist.
