Tai otoshi and Ippon seoi nage.

 

Umm..... I have added ya to my MSN list. It would be easier to tell oyu over that. :D

ippon seionage = one arm shoulder throw. I only mentioned the one arm part because there is a two arm throw also - morote seionage.

Ah, I knew I recognized the first one. I need to brush up on my vocabulary, it seems.

In ippon seoi nage, the important thing is to drop your hieght. You need to but your hips beneath your uke's to give you a mechanical advantage, do this by bending your knees. Also make sure that when you pull them, you pull them around your body. Pull their arm towards your opposite hip, (if you're throwing them over your left shoulder it would be your right hip) and twsit your body as if turning to look behind you. This prevent them going right over your back and crippling the both of you, you want them over your shoulder.

 

In tai otoshi, you want to be fast. Steal their energy and pull them round whirling them in a circular path. You yourslef much make each step in line, so when you turn you do it through 180 so that your feet are in line. twsit onto the ball of your proping foot and with your heel pointing up and knee pointing down, this gives you some buckles so that if the fall on your leg, it doesn't break. Finally don't hold them too close, you need about a foot or more space between your bodies so they fall over your calf or lower thigh, not your hip or you'll both go over in a heap.

 

Bear in mind that I train in traditional jiu-jitsu, so most of my techniques are trained against in coming punches, it may not work in Judo like competion and randori. Nevertheless I hope this helped. :)

Mind, body and fist. Its all a man truly needs.

First of all the best way to get good at a throw is to practice it. The more you do it, the better you get at it.

 

As far as ippon seionage, I find it's easier to do when I drop to the ground. I weigh in at a whopping 160 lbs, so I don't have much weight behind me. By dropping to both knees I can use the little weight I have more efficiently. When you do drop make sure that you drop between his legs. You want to be as paralell to your opponent as possible. Also make sure that you pull your opponents arm tight to your body, and be sure to support it in the crook of your arm. It should be on your bicept, not your shoulder. If you choose to do it standing make sure that you get your belt lower than your opponent's.

 

With tai-otoshi, it is what is considered a hand throw. Don't worry about the legs (your's or your opponents) it is not a sweep. You can blow out a knee by doing that. It's also important to break your opponents kazushi (balance) as much as possible.

 

Personally I have never considered tai-otoshi a basic throw. I've always found it to be a fairly difficult throw to execute with a willing uke, let alone a resisting opponent. I would concentrate on a throw like Osoto Gari and become good at it before I move onto tai-otoshi. That's just my feeling
