Judo Turnovers for Beginners

Learning Groundwork

Why do we need to learn groundwork turnovers?

Judo turnovers for beginners are important to learn to break through defences and get your partner in a hold down.

Often what happens in groundwork judo is you partner will block you, using common judo groundwork defences like laying flat on the mat, or curling up in a tight ball on all fours.

And if you don’t know what to do, this can be a problem? You get stopped at the first hurdle. You don’t know what to do – but you know you need to get your partner onto their back and into a hold down if you want to win the match.

So, how do you turn your partner over onto their back? We will get to that in just a second, but before we do, now seems a good time to mention the Groundwork Turnovers book! 🙂
