Dust jacket notes: "Beginners in Judo find that the throws they have 'learnt' still fail in free practice. This is because they cannot move freely, and without that, the most elaborate repertoire of tricks is useless. This book shows you how to practice for the dashing yet balanced freedom of movement which is the hallmark of the expert. Once you have the knack of this, you have the Key to all the Judo techniques, and to many physical activities... outside the Judo hall as well. The authors are well qualified to write on their subject - T. P. Leggett holds the highest rank yet awarded to a Westerner, and K. Watanabe is a famous stylist who has in recent years won some of the most important contests in Japan."
