~Passion for Judo~ Judo-ka Isao Okano 

手前、素人ですが、力任せではない美しい柔道とは、正しくこれに尽きるのではないかと拝見しました。

やっぱりいつ見ても岡野先生の膝のつかない背負投げは、気持ちいいし、かっこいい。

Génial, très intéressant de voir comment était le judo de l'époque et de suivre le parcourt de cet homme ;)

天才です。三四郎です

Thank you for sharing this. Even your nickname reveals a true respect regarding Okano senseï. ;)

貴重な資料ですね

grande okano

練習しすぎて、体が駄目になる。

Does anyone know what is the name of the original Japanese instrumental or song that was connected with this video? I mean the song before they changed it to this current song.

バイタル柔道・正氣塾塾長・岡野先生

それはやはり古典的な美しい柔道でした。現在、このルールは西側諸国に合わせて調整されており、少なくとも一部の試合では得点できるようになっている。形車は足を掴んではいけませんし、谷二落としも禁止です。

現代の選手の方が強いと思う。

I wonder how a modern good level recreational Judo player would do at these old school clubs back in the day. Would they wipe the floor with the old school style using some of the new fancy techniques that would be totally alien to the old judo? In most sports it's agreed that modern athletes would destroy the older athletes if they went back in time. And you can tell that from race times etc

Thanks for sharing this great inheritance

It's amazing how little the Kodokan has changed.

"I truly hope that 'Japanese Judo' stays true to its origin forever." Well. The Japanese one, sure. But Judo as an olympic sport changed a lot since. You can do more judo in wrestling now than judo in judo. That's why I like to practice it as a martial artist rather as an athete. Thank you for bringing this documentary to us.
