Light warm up and stretches to ease back into training after last weekend competition. We work on Uchimata as our primary throw.   I like Uchimata a lot especially because you can use it to counter leg grab such as single leg. Uchimata seems to be difficult to finish as you can have to hop around on one leg forcing your opponent to lose balance. Such hop around is known the Ken Ken. I read that Ken Ken was supposed to be Can Can. You need to watch French Can Can at the Moulin Rouge to understand the analogy. If you are tired of doing the hop around, you can switch to Ko Uchi Gari or Tai Otoshi. Uchimata to Ko Uchi     Ko Uchi to Uchimata to see the difference        I prefer Ko Uchi Gari over the dreaded Tai Otoshi. The reason being that Tai Otoshi is usually applied with massive leg strike to uke knee instead of just blocking uke ankle. http://judoinfo.com/images/animations/blue/taiotoshi.htm ...
