      That;s because its not japanese. The japanese way involves twisting one side before bringing it around to create a space for your sword. It also doesn't come off as easily. Every time I dropped in on a bjj class I was the only one not losing my gi and retying my belt every roll

  • @sam04019491

    Top tip:
    Tie the belt the first way, starting from the front middle of the waist. Before you tie the second knot, put your thumb in between the layers. Start at the front and move your thumb all the way around your body, keeping your thumb between the two layers of your belt. When you get back to the front on the other side, you’ll notice it “pop” and the cross over at the back will be at the front and “un-cross” itself. You can then tie the final knot and still tuck in the two ends in-between the layers. Hard to explain, easier once you see it. This way you get the best of both worlds without having the crossover but it’s quick.

  • @pauloomss
    @pauloomss 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I always tie my belt this way. Two advantages: the belt does not cross in you back; and it is very hard for this knot to come undone.

  • @jamesfrankiewicz5768
    @jamesfrankiewicz5768 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I tie mine pretty much like your cousin, except I hold mine on my left hip as I wrap it, then pull the whole thing to center after the 2nd wrap. There's also one other knot that's used about equally much that lies slightly flatter... my instructor uses that one. Either way, I'm all for the cleaner overlap.

    I did the first one for the first 20 years doing martial arts, have done the last one for the last 10 years now. I prefer the neat one cause it looks good and the belt doesn't come apart so easy with that knot. And I like how it looks from the back.

They tend to dodge the problem by claiming it’s a strategic advantage. To which I’ve been known to reply by wrapping their heads up in their jackets or grabbing their belts off the floor and loop them around their necks. ‘Cause, I’m a dick like that.

    Cool! In TKD I tied my belt almost exactly like Eugene except without tucking the ends (I didn't know anyone else doing it this way either). In judo I was told to tie it like you do, sarting middle in front, cross in the back. Now in Wadoaki, I have to tie it like Eugene's again, but starting from the right side, wrapping to the left -- can you see if you Eugene can try tying his the opposite direction? It's weird!

    Since I started jujutsu and now also judo I've always tied my belt the second way because it only takes a few seconds more, but it's more comfortable and my belt has never come loose during practice. So many people I train with tie it the lazy way to save three seconds at the start of the class, but then they have to re-tie their belt when it falls off several times before the end, so how much time did they really save?

    My Taekwondo instructor back in the day taught us the advantage of the belt crossing was that it was flatter, so if you fall on your back it creates less of an impact. Probably doesn't make a difference really, but that's what stuck

  • @gabrielrivard3332
    @gabrielrivard3332 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Other than aesthetics and a belt that unties less when using the 2nd method shown, are there compared advantages/disadvantages of using one style of knot over the other? In example : since it locks the belt more securely, does method 2 offer a significant advantage to your opponent when they pull on the belt vs if the belt was tied using method 1? Would forces applied on the belt be felt differently on the spine using method 1, since the surface over which it crosses the back is larger? If so, would that make it easier to resist kuzushi if the opponent grabs the belt? Looking forwards to your thoughts on the matter!

    Curious, our style is from Japan, our Soke in Japan ties it the way you showed first. Why? Because the belt has to be loose so you can take it off with one hand and restrain people with it (or use the belt for injury care).
    Koryu style if it matters.

    Thanks again Shintaro. It never ceases to bemuse me how otherwise rational martial artists rate a students skill level by how well they tie their belt. And or, if the way they tie their belt, matches the way it is done in their own school. Simply hilarious, loads of fun for the whole family. In my last school no one wore belts for any reason. More skilled and powerful students were always felt, rather than seen. Now at long last I can finally tie my belt correctly, I think. Sigh.......!
