Judo had striking atemi waza

[kamahlthedruid]

My old judo sensei was a student of Kyuzo Mifune. He promised his master that he would never teach judo striking ever again. Is there any old footage of atemi waza on youtube? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rKuMITjSeog here is a new video of atemi waza, but I don't know if its authentic judo atemi waza.

Meaningful practice of atemi waza was excised from the judo curriculum so early and so completely that I suspect judo doesn't have any unique atemi of its own: any atemi it possessed in the early stages would be strictly derivative of the koryu jujutsu systems judo was distilled from.

The atemi waza of Judo is outlined in Kano's Kodokan Judo book. It starts on page 136.

I think master mifune studied aikido because i saw a video of him doing some aikido like defenses against weapons and there was some atemi waza in the video too.

Kano did some cross-training with some karateka too I think. It seems like virtually all the techniques in the Kodokan Judo manual are derived from karate.
