Wastelander Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 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.

sensei8 Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 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. **Proof is on the floor!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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!

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. **Proof is on the floor!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
