Distinguished visitors: We had the honor of training today with the great satoshi ishii, Olympic gold Medalist and All Japan judo champion. It was very impressive watching a truly elite Judoka work with the modern jiu jitsu style. His Judo pedigree showed today. He has a tremendous inside trip (ouchi gari) and body drop (tai otoshi) and osoto gari. Like every elite Japanese judo player I've seen he has excellent positional ground grappling (ne waza) that even a good jiu jitsu player would be proud of. I always loved watching his judo battles against the two great Japanese Olympic champions Kosei Inoue and Kejii Suzuki back in the day – watching his jiu jitsu battles today were just as good!
