Kote-Gaeshi Reversal Drill


Recommended Posts

Hello everyone,

This is the latest video my Sensei and I made for the dojo, and it looks at a flow drill for escaping kote-gaeshi (wrist reversal), and countering with waki-gatame (armpit hold), before transitioning to kote-gaeshi to continue the drill. As with most flow drills, this drill can be used as a platform drill, from which to launch into other techniques.

Nice drill! In the video, Noah, you're more bent over while applying than your Sensei is when he applies; your Sensei is more erect in his posture. Just pointing that out because posture is important.

Yes, I noticed that, as well, when I was editing the video--it's one of those things you can't see when you're doing it, but the video doesn't lie. It may have been a subconscious adjustment due to my height, or to avoid bending my bad knee, but I'll be looking out for it now!

The height? Well, that requires proper adjustment to force your opponent more prone while keeping your posture proper.

The bad knee? Well, that can't be avoided because you're trying to protect an injury from being aggravated unnecessarily.
