They approach the art from the perspective that it is about self defense, that training should be some sort of preparation for that hypothetical encounter on the street, in the bar, wherever. If technique is "effective" is the main criteria. Ukemi is taught as something oppositional, talk of "resistant" ukemi is the norm.
Seriously, where ever that legendary bar is, I bet it is on that place known infamously as "the street" And I bet it is right next to that dark alley I always hear about!!!
I never got it, if that place sucks so bad, why does everyone always talk about how they like to hang out there?
