Jo vs Owen video clip from Summer 2006 Judo Final, Day Class Ippon Judo (Olympic style judo with Heavy Metal music)   Old Judo techniques (Kosen Judo) closely resemble modern BJJ...   Kosen judo is a form of judo adopted by the major Japanese high schools and technical schools during the Meiji era (1868 - 1914). Today it is still practised at university clubs in Japan. Kosen judo emphasizes newaza (ground techniques) such as controls, joint locks and strangles more than the most common type of judo, Kodokan judo, does. Kosen judo was most influential to Brazilian jiujitsu. Read more about Kosen Judo at Wikipedia Please review basic Rules of Randori, particularly prohibited acts.
