Hiza to Hiza to Hiza
This lesson is really Greg Ables', who was gracious enough to let Chris Wilson photograph & video. The object of this lesson is two-fold. First, we have to step on the line each and every time we attack. Second, constantly attack.
Begin with uke stepping forward with his right foot. Tori steps out three feet on the line (toes pointing toward uke) with his left foot and raises his right leg to attack with hiza-guruma.
For whatever reason, tori’s attack fails as uke steps forward with his left foot. Tori allows his right foot to fall on the line again, just on the new line…
... and attack with hiza-guruma again!
This fails again as uke steps forward with his right foot. Tori allows his left foot to fall on the line new line again. We’re back to our original configuration at this point.
And tori throws hiza-guruma again.
Here are two videos to show this in action. Same uke & tori roles. The first video moves from right to left, while the second one moves from left to right to provide a different angle.
