I have just finished my midday practice that included:
- SOTO UKE - GEDAN BARAI - UCHI UKE - GYAKU TSUKI
- EMPI and JUNRO YONDAN.
I have to come to one of the most difficult for me points, UCHI UKE. Somehow application of this technique goes better than KIHON (that's how I see it at least!). UCHI UKE - a block from inside. It should start from the HIKITE creating compression (potential energy) and making the whipping snap (kinetic energy) in order to stop in front of the body covering its "edge". Usually performed on CHUDAN level.
Please watch my video and point out as many of my mistakes as possible. I am going to review this technique during the the next two weeks.

ReplyDeleteVery strong. You might want to consider not stopping half way through the technique to you can feel the 'whipping action' of the block.
Keep training
Thank you for the advice. Ossu
