Yesterday's no-gi throwing class was great-even the part where I got guillotined, twice. Hey, you can't really learn unless you make mistakes, so here's a toast to making mistakes. Clink!
The class was larger than I expected and I was on the light side of the spectrum of body-types, a welterweight among cruisers to heavy-weights. It's like riding down the highway in a VW Beetle and being surrounded by tractor trailers. We worked on three throws off the same side. The theory behind this is if you miss one throw, you've got plan B and plan C in place. Plan C is a drop seionage. It looks just like this. The first throw, plan A, looks like the knee-kick block in the video, just block and twist.
It was a great training/learning experience. Unfortunately, in order to get good at throwing, you have to do a lot of falling, and that aspect of throwing is wreaking havoc with my bum wrist. Argh!
