Standing Judo; the Combinations and Counter-attacks

Mikinosuke Kawaishi created a method of Judo intended for Europeans when he settled in France which also become known as 'French Judo' or the 'Kawaishi Method'. Its aim was to make known in its entirety, Japanese Judo from the source, since at the present time in Japan Judo had been obliged to discard quite a number of holds regarded as dangerous. Standing Judo; the combinations and counter-attacks covers all the core elements of Judo throwing practice by concentrating on standing techniques, unbalancing your opponent and countering techniques. Explaining combinations as either; an attack repeated in rapid succession, a modified attack, or lastly, a combination on the ground following an imperfect throw and which has not resulted in 'waza ari'. As well as counter-attacks which is the exploitation of your opponent's attacking technique to your own advantage. With nearly 200 photographs this book is a valuable learning aid for the beginner or advanced student of Judo as well as a historical reference. This valuable book, which as Mr. Kawaishi points out, is written to aid the further advancement of those who have already reached a certain proficiency in the Art of Judo, is a very worthy addition to his previous, widely read works, My Method of Judo, My Method of Self-Defence, and The Complete Seven Katas of Judo.
