If you were to coach nogi judo...
Would you start them in gi just like judo and change the concept more for mma/grappling....... and then to nogi? (since what they are looking for)
Or would you start straight nogi judo and change concept to grappling/mma?
How and why? Thanks.
Quite a bit to this I think.
I think that I would start them nogi and just drastically change the rules to game to make it JUDO olympic philosophy....without the ippon, which would create more ground. But I would score higher for top and nothing for sweep from bottom. Keep holdowns for hi score but again, no ippon. Low score and penalty for shitty shots to keep them uprite. This is more for mma grappling.
Ideally, if I were to get a young teen, I would go with the 1st option. But 'marketing' seems to influence.
