@@MokeTheGeniusDog thanks for checking it out brotha. I personally learned a lot on this one. I'm still considering the upsides and downsides of government regulations for coaching. Maybe another podcast in the future.
@@MokeTheGeniusDog the thing is in these circumstances the government gives you legal protection, facilities an endless supply of eager young Talent trying out for the team... that's how we handle wrestling and look at the difference in our success rate
In most of the world Judo is a job so it's competitive and driven by the market economy in the United States it's nothing more than a hobby and it's been commercially supplanted by Brazilian jiu-jitsu to such a degree it's practically an endangered species... if Judo was offered for free in the public school system the United States would be competitive internationally but as it stands it's only available under commercial circumstances where athletes are clients of coaches not competitively trying to get a spot on a team like it is in wrestling An even bigger factor is the constant rule changes in Judo creating a fast-moving chaotic system that you have to be well attuned to in order to follow, it's practically impossible to introduce to adults creating a massive barrier to entry!
Hi, would you be able to share any information on where to find high level professional judo training in Japan. Somewhere that is also cheap to live, so not in Tokyo. And where they welcome visitors. I’m 29 with 7 years of experience in bjj and wrestling, looking to train judo professionally. Thank you!
Here's the reply I got from the Judo coach out here in Japan. "The main place to train is Tenri university (near Nara) anybody can go anytime. It s the most foreigners friendly university in Japan. And it s in the top 3 strongest place. The level is so high that it s almost scary."
Thank you very much, I really appreciate the help. If you have any other information please feel free to share it here, hard to find this information online. Thank you!
@RandomETC-wg5hk no problem. I live out here so if you ever have any questions feel free to contact me at thesocialgelo@gmail.com. Thanks for checking out the show!
Since The Goof Neil Adams and his gang got involved in the IJF many years ago, Judo has gone downhill until it has reached its own death in the last Olympics. Judo Is Dead. Long Live BJJ that has kept the technical traditions.
Interesting show, Angelo. Thank You! 🙏

@@socialgelo7719 “Government regulation” is a dirty term in my opinion. It is never the answer.
@MokeTheGeniusDog there are definitely a lot cons to it.

@@HowleebraI’m not willing to pay the price for those government protections. Nothing in life is free.

Those are really good points. Thanks for checking out the show!
They just announced the new official rules yesterday. It s getting even more complicate

@@bobjones1537 that's interesting. You think that's just in the U.S. or internationally as well?
@@socialgelo7719 Internationally with local implications obviously
