Ganseki Nage and Battojutsu

Monday 6 July, 2015 - Class record

Ganseki Nage and Battojutsu

After beginning with some thigh-busting yoko gaeshi, we focussed on turning a simple te-hodoki technique into Ganseki Nage 巌石投 (to throw a boulder). Then using similar free movement, we explored the practicality of a wrist grab when involving the wearing of daisho 大小.

After the break we explored more battojutsu by means of uchikomi; Do giri uke 胴斬り受け, and Gyaku kesa giri uke 逆袈裟斬り受け.
