"Just wanted to say that your Hiza Guruma variant is the most successful throw for me yet in randori. Maybe it is because I’m a low rank and they don’t anticipate it, but it has worked against black belts."
Olivier Dubois
"Down up down, down up down … it’s becoming a mantra !!!! trying to coordinate it with the foot placement !!! So many details that i never pay attention to, that will take my Ippon Seoi to a new level. Thanks a Lot sensei."
Louie Jones
"The day after watching this I was FINALLY able to hit a Ippon Seoi Nage in randori. I also used the lapel grip break twice against my instructor. Thanks so much for offering this at a reasonable price."
