at 7:35 when bowing out of class these judoka say it. In Japan, instructed by Kimura.
This short film was made in 1965 so it isn't a new thing by any means.

I like it! After all...we're wearing an outfit meant to mimic the kimono type clothing worn by the japanese people...practicing an art brought to brazil from Japan. I see nothing wrong with using a saying they use.
Why the hate?
Dooky Belt Deluxe - seriously.... every Tom Dick and Harry with a stripe on their white belt on facebook puts this shit up every day... retarded.

Its the guys saying all the time that I hate. Instructor says something OSSS. Buddy says something cool OSSSS. Time to get water OSSSS.
I like tradition but some people take it over the top.
It's a bit more complicated than that Gracie piece.

Colt Seavers - We say "Hiyoooo!" at our gym.
Obviously a Lloyd Irvin gym

I went to proelite this past weekend and saw them yellow OSS shirts. Looked. ..... .... ...... ........ different.
Lol @ all the haters. I never really hear it anywhere else, besides when my teams fb page posts something about getting ready for competitions and tournaments, then they'll say osss at the end.
I've been told that in Japan it's considered pretty thuggish, young guys will say it to make it appear that they're Yakuza. I've seen multiple Yakuza films and documentaries where the young Yakuza (Chinpira) will be lined up waiting for the bosses to arrive. When one arrives, they bow and loudly shout OSSSSSSSSSS!
I'm not really down with the osss.
