@ekjudo maeda was kosen the confusion is kano finally acceptted ground fighting into the judo curriculum in 1925 when he allowed grappling to be taught in highschool so it could be safe grappling was always in judo kano separated it cause it was dominate if u look this up u will find it sensei oda was a ground expert along with others but kano sent maeda to teach abroad in order to develop throwing tech and market in japan maeda didnt pick up catch til later maeda was 7 dan in judo

The focus on newaza started even befor the term "Kosen" was used. Only the term came later.
The only reason why Kano wanted a seperate school (Kosen) was because
he fear the emphasis on newaza by his students would cause many of the throwing techniques to become extinct.

@SammySmokesLess Name one technique the Gracie's "invented" that wasn't in original Kodokan Judo.

@ekjudo The birth of Kosen Judo
Jujutsu schools had earned a very bad reputation in the 19th century. The art of Jujutsu wasn't seen as a sport, and its practitioners were all labelled trouble-makers. This troubled Kano as he wanted his art to be mainly taught as a way of life and to be a fitness exercise (for both body and mind).To this end he started promoting the educational side of his Jujutsu ryu by first changing its name to Judo.

Kosen judo
Kosen judo is a form of judo adopted by the major high schools and technical schools during the Meiji Era (1868 - 1914) in Japan. It emphasizes newaza (ground techniques) such as controls, joint locks and strangles. This is the style of judo that was taught to the Gracies in Brazil by Mitsuyo Maeda.
History
The roots of Kosen Judo lies in two schools of Jujutsu: The Fusen-Ryu Jujutsu and, not surprisingly, Jigoro Kano´s own Ryu (school) which was named Judo and spread worldwide.

And your source that Kosen started in the 1920's??

@chilidog1001 No its not. Kosen Judo was a ruleset of Kodokan judo practiced at the scholastic level prior to rule changes in 1925 and is simply one style of Kodokan Judo competition.

Stop with the nonsence. The term "special high school" was just the japanese way of discribing a technical/trade schools. People went to kosen schools to learn a trade or some form of engineering. So called "kosen judo" is nothing more but regular judo as practice by japanese technical/trade schools. The term "kosen judo" is to Japan as "Iowa wrestling" is the Iowa Hawkeyes. The Hawkeyes don't practice some sort of special wrestling. It's just wrestling just like kosen judo is just judo.

@ekjudo kosen judo was created at the same time as kodokan judo...its because in judo competitions small ground fighting judokas would pull people into their guard and grapple instead of throwing, so jigoro kano changed the rules and removed grappling from the sport kodokan judo and everyone learns this sport. that is why it is called "special high school" because you learn much more ground techniques too
that´s right!, read people, newaza and all over variation of the guard was created in japan hundreds years ago, and fusen ryu was the pioneer in that, not the gracie family, they´re just an imitators.

This guy is full of shit. Kosen does not mean grappling gentlemen way. Kosen is an abbreviation of the japanese term koto-senmon-gakko wich literally translate as "special high school". Also Mistuyo Maeda was a pure judoka. Kosen judo started in the 1920's while Maeda left japan on November 16, 1904 and never came back. Maeda's wins in catch wrestling was with old fashion judo so stop trying to connect kosen with BJJ. BJJ grew out of Judo plain and simple.
