At last I managed to see Eri Dori in action which is not a very common technique especially during seminars as Sensei explained.
After MIA for a while,Hussein appeared for the day's session and all I can say is welcome back!
Sensei took us through an array of techniques and among those that featured during the two hours were:
-Kokyu Ho from both Gyaku Hanmi and Ai Hanmi Katatedori stances.
-Variations of Kokyu Nage techniques.
-Eri Dori Kokyu Ho.
-Gyaku Hanmi Katatedori Sumi Otoshi.
-Ryote dori Kokyu Ho.
One important thing I learnt yesterday thanks to Sensei is that when executing Sumi Otoshi especially from the Gyaku Hanmi Katatedori stance,it is imperative for Tori to grab Uke's arm as he brings Uke down with the elbow as Tori cannot always assume that Uke will keep holding on to his(Tori's) arm as Tori goes for his elbow....Good stuff!
NEXT SESSION:WEDNESDAY,APRIL 4 AT THE GOAN GYMKHANA.
