If you do then I, for one, would be interested in hearing your opinions on the differences (if any) that you've experienced or seen first hand between yudo and judo.

If you don't do it, that's a weird thread.

No, but a bit of friendly advice for you: please don't post in all caps.

Welcome to Bullshido.

hey guys check this one out, says its a unique Korean technique from cirem...Judo men is it a part of your lexicon as well? It seems like they have a whole collection techniques up there for you (and i) to peruse.

YouTube - Yudo (Judo) Lift and Drop Throw

I trained Yudo for a year when I was living in Korea in '03-'04. My experience was that it was exactly the same as Judo but some of the terminology was Korean. The Korean terminology wasn't alwasy consistent though and people frequently used both terms to refer to techniques.

I've got an idea (what is rare, I know) for a Yudo/Judo project.

What if we look for movieclips on youtube that are described as 'Yudo' specific techniques. Post them in this thread and then let an experienced 'Judoka' (thinking MTripp or Coach Josh) look at them.

They can say what is Yudo and what is Judo.

If we can get from this, one or two extra techniques to add to our Judo it would be a benefit.

I trained Yudo for a year in Korea in 08-09. Same experience. They also didn't differentiate between Yudo and Judo - they thought and said that it was the same art. They almost exclusively used Korean terminology, though I wasn't witness to any techniques that were specifically Korean and which were absent in Japanese Judo.

It's the same thing. The Koreans just don't like the Japanese and give everything a Korean name or pronunciation.

So the Yudo technique that JBliss posted belongs also to the Judo sylabus?

I still got a long way to go before knowing all the 67 throws/takedowns.

There are plenty of techniques that have been developed by many different players that are not part of the standard throws. That does not instantly turn the art form into a specific country based martial art. The bases for that throw and any other variation comes from basic Judo.

There are many styles of Judo associated with specific countries. French, Russian, Korean and Cuban to name a few. It deals with the way that country approaches Judo in competition and some techniques that they incorporate that other places do not. It could be a way of gripping or a variation to a particular throw. It doesn't change the fact that it started as Judo.

Judo is not practiced in a fish bowl like many other martial arts. It's open to the world. Much like open source programming. While many people will change it and make it to their liking the base OS is common through out all the programming.
