Kosen Judo - Wikipedia says:

Kosen judo is a form of judo (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judo) adopted by the major high schools and technical schools during the Meiji era (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meiji_era) (1868 - 1914). Today it is still practised at university clubs in Japan. Kosen judo emphasizes newaza (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grappling#Ground_grappling) (ground techniques) such as controls, joint locks and strangles more than the most common type of judo does. Kosen judo was most influential to Brazilian jiujitsu (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brazilian_jiujitsu).

Interesting stuff!

I had (apparently, wrongly) assumed that the emphasis on ground techniques in BJJ was a modification made by the Gracie family.

Thanks for posting :)

Very good videos!

The Gracies expanded and improved the Ne Waza from Judo/Jujitsu. I believe that most of the moves themselves can be found in traditonal Judo or Jujitsu to some degree.

Once again Andrew you have outdone yourself in finding great footage. http://www.martialtalk.com/forum/images/icons/icon14.gif

This footage is simply priceless! Thanks again.
