4 u/_Throh_ sankyu Jun 07 '25 I know dude 2 u/Yamatsuki_Fusion sankyu Jun 08 '25 It greatly depends on region. We're fine to do them here in Australia, aside from specific novice contests designed to ease new people in. Otherwise your given community tournament allows it. 1 u/criticalsomago Jun 07 '25 It makes sense. Why teach kids arm-bars and chokes? Tachi-waza is soo much more difficult and critical to learn at an early age. Holding of on advanced newaza makes for better judokas in the end.
