Classes focus on the principles that drive techniques and their application in various contexts. Students may advance in rank by meeting time in grade criteria and by demonstrating technical competence and theoretical and background knowledge. Randori, kata (formal and informal) and competition are the three main areas of judo application. Expectations and requirements in all three areas are stated at each grade level. In addition, attending clinics and seminars and providing supervised teaching (when appropriate) are required. Each test below includes a representative sampling of principles and techniques from judo. The tests do not represent a complete syllabus of judo.

This document and the site which provides it are the premier English language resources for all things Budokai. Both the site and this guide are freely available and of benefit to practitioners of Kyokushin Budo Kai, Kyokushin Karate (at times known as 'Kyokushinkai'), Judo, Jiu Jitsu (aka.

As a student of Kyokushin Budo Kai, I have spent many hundreds of hours researching websites, in four different languages, in an effort to gain as much knowledge as possible concerning the International Kyokushin Budokai, Jon Bluming (founder and President) and background information concerning the martial arts that make up the Kyokushin Budo Kai system. I would like to thank all Budoka that have posted material online. Without their efforts - the construction of this single source of information would not have been possible. This document has been compiled following many, many, many months of internet research into the techniques and philosophies of the styles of Kyokushin Budo Kai, Kyokushin Karate, Jiu Jutsu, Judo and Sambo. I researched it's contents purely for the purpose of PERSONAL development and in order to improve my understanding as a practitioner of Kyokushin Karate, Judo and Jiu Jitsu under my Sensei, Charley Herwig (3.

Let Us Talk About Shime Waza
Judo discussion and investigation of selected topics by Ronald Désormeaux JUDO RON 38 -Let us talk about “Shime Waza” or strangulation techniques STRANGULATION, not a good story to make an opening with, but history tells us that humans have been strangling each other for thousands of years, and evidence of such have been found in numerous archaeological sites all over the world. It is known that many cultures have utilized this technique at war and in peace time for executions, either by hanging or garrote. Strangulations have been used in religious rituals, ceremonial sacrifices and executions of all sorts. Strangulation is an activity in which someone's neck is constricted, with the goal of cutting off blood flow or the person's air supply which may lead to unconsciousness or death by causing an increasingly hypnotic state in the brain. When someone is strangled, death can occur in several different ways. Many people associate strangling with asphyxia, in which the supply of air is cut off, but strangulation can also involve ischemia, in which the blood flow to the brain is restricted, and the brain dies. There is also a controlled form of strangulation used in martial arts like judo and within the justice and law enforcement agencies with the goal of suppressing an opponent without killing him or her. There are different ways to effect strangulation according to the mechanisms used: Hanging — suspension from a cord wound around the neck; Ligature strangulation — strangulation without suspension using some form of cord-like object called a Garrote or by Manual strangulation — Strangulation using the fingers, hands, wrists or other part of the body to make pressure as practiced in judo.
