  • Svenska Judoförbundet Landslaget
    Svenska Judoförbundet Landslaget Rapport GP Düsseldorf 2015 Årets första Grand Prix tävling i tyska Düsseldorf samlade närmare 600 deltagare från 75 nationer, och med några få undantag så var hela världseliten på plats i Mitsubishi Electric Halle för att göra upp om åtråvärda medaljer och rankingpoäng inför OS i Rio de Janeiro nästa år. Då delar av landslaget är på träningsläger i Japan ställde vi upp med en liten, men stark trupp i tävlingen. Det svenska laget bestod av Emma Barkeling och Anna Bernholm i -63 kg, och Marcus Nyman i -90 kg. Undertecknad deltog som lagledare och coach. Bäst denna gång lyckades Nyman, som efter två meriterande segrar mot nyblivne franske mästaren Ludovic Gobert, och 2014 års asiatiske mästare, japanen Yuya Yoshida, tog sig till kvartsfinal. Där blev det emellertid förlust mot världsettan och regerande europamästaren Varlam Liparteliani, Georgiern. I och med kvartsfinalplatsen fick Marcus även chansen till vidare avancemang i återkvalet, men där blev det tyvärr förlust mot världssexan, koreanen Don Hang Gwak. I december vann koreanen Tokyo Grand Slam, och tidigare samma höst även Grand Prix Jeju, så det var verkligen toppkvalité på motståndet i Düsseldorf. Marcus prestation var imponerande, och han påvisade tydligt att han kan utmana de allra bästa i viktklassen, och blir att räkna med i de kommande OS-kval tävlingarna. Resultat Herrar -90 kg: 1. Varlam Liparteliani, Georgien 2. Kazbek Zankishiev, Ryssland 3. Daiki Nishiyama, Japan 3. Beka Gvinashvili, Georgien 5. Dong Han Gwak, Korea 5. Aleksandar Kukolj, Serbien 7. Marcus Nyman, Sverige 7. Nikoloz Sherazadishvili, Spanien Emma Barkeling imponerade stort i de två inledande matcherna där hon först besegrade den tidigare JVM-medaljören Maylin Del Toro, Kuba, och sedan VM-femman från Chelyabinsk i fjol, fransyskan Anne-Laure Bellard.

Publicado por: José Luis López Cuando el pasado lunes se inició la recién finalizada edición del Campeonato Nacional de Judo 2016, en Holguín, una figura era seguida por todos en el calentamiento de quienes competirían ese día en la sala Fernando de Dios Buñuel. Y no podía ser otra que el campeón mundial y subtitular olímpico Asley González (90 kgs), imposibilitado de competir. No obstante, sentado en el graderío donde lo rodeaban niños en busca de un autógrafo, el ídolo del municipio villaclareño de Placetas accedió a conversar con JR sobre los pormenores de su actual estado físico y otras temáticas de interés. —¿Cuál fue la causa real de tu ausencia al tatami? —«Realmente, estoy padeciendo de un leve esguince colateral-medial de la rodilla derecha. Por eso, mi entrenador (Justo Noda), el doctor Uvelino Moreno y yo decidimos que no compitiera, para intentar una pronta recuparación total de cara a los eventos que se avecinan». —Sin embargo, en los tres días que hubo de competencia, antes de que se iniciara cada jornada te vi entrenando bien duro de pareja con el subcampeón mundial José Armenteros (100)… —«Sucede que él también tiene ligeras molestias en un codo, y al igual que conmigo, se decidió que tampoco participara.

WELCOME We received our first taste of Judo in Japan with an early rise and bicycle rides to the Tokai Shonan main campus. We were introduced to our Head Instructor Kenji Mitsumoto.

A Mizuno gi bag, a UniQlo hoodie, a Mizuno shirt, and a custom embroidered Kusakura gi. ETIQUETTE Our first class was on etiquette “Reishiki”.

It was stressed that as good Judo instructors, we must know the meaning “the Riai” of what we are teaching and how it connects together. We must also under- stand the principle of the movements and techniques. KATA with Tomoo Hamana It was an honor to have 4-time World Kata Champion, Tomoo Hamana visit from us from Hamana Dojo to fine tune our Kata. He was very humble in his approach and reminded us to not only memorize the techniques, but to focus on the meaning behind each technique. Learning the history of the technique while studying the mechanics of the throws made it very enjoyable.
