Nage No Kata + Katame No Kata + Ju No Kata + Latin Spice = This Weird, Majestic... Thing

That headline has to bring you in, right? A friend shared this with me today. I'm not sure what it is, but I like it.



I think my favorite is the climbing juji. Or the slow-mo climbing yoko guruma.

That climbing yoko guruma was my favorite.
I'm always saying that throwing fast doesn't mean you're throwing well, but if you can throw in slow-mo then you kinda have to be doing it well. That was a great example of that - especially because of the techniques demonstrated.
that said - nobody get any ideas from that seoi nage.... he was sticking his butt out.

Good points Jake, notice that in his video, Mifune-sensei did his yoko-guruma very close to that one. As far as the butt sticking up is for the tori to have some support...
