Hiza-Guruma alternative to Sasae

if you're fighting a taller player and your leg's a bit too short to do an effective sasae-tsurikomi-ashi, you can always go for hiza-guruma, which is pretty much the same thing except you are blocking uke's knee instead of his shin.

[@MrJh371]

These are great. I loved how the guy asked exactly what I would have asked about the moves differences.

[@avenuex3731]

I come for the technique. I stay for the unvarnished presentation.

[@eddierayvanlynch6133]

All that experience, great teaching ability, *AND* a sense of humor.
Excellent!

[@catherine4899]

Love how you keep videos short and sweet. 👍

[@damianodidomenico4756]

"I'm a big fan of the Sasae" yea, I never would've imagined it

[@mattsuran1270]

I also come for the technique but stay for George's movie star looks!

[@J3unG]

Georgie is cool as fuck. Nice to see you guys work out together. Any chance we can see a LIVESTREAM of a regular class night? I'd love to see what that looks like. Thanks, bro!

[@jamtmann]

Awesome, always very informative 👍

When he turned the camera it felt like it was something I wasnt supposed to see

[@moqo]

Some 4th wall stuff or something :)

[@buckets3628]

great vid thank you

[@rogerstone4738]

I'm a hiza guruma fan!

[@nicocontreras5366]

I am all about sasae but that footwork to hiza was amazing.

[@moqo]

I love this throw over sasae because I get countered alot when I get in close. Might change once I improve a bit though :P Clearly Sintaro is great in close.

[@chrisgk7494]

Besides where the foot is the near the knee or much lower isn't one main differences when the attack happens? In sasae before he can make a step and in hiza before his foot touches the ground, or the other way around i am not sure.

[@wikingagresor]

From my understanding of the mechanics of these throws, the best effect for sasae is a moment right before uke's foot touches the ground. When it comes to hiza guruma you want him to have full weight on the leg you are attacking. You are trying to 'assist' him in his movement, then create a pivot point around his knee and 'wheel' him over it to the ground.

Hello

[@rogerstone4738]

Different timing between sasae and hiza, dont u think?

[@damianodidomenico4756]

Comments are good for the RUclips algorithm

[@PegLegNinja]

I use a 4 corners offense generally, osoto, ouchi, taiototoshi, sasae, however I'm absolutely crap at taio. Any suggestions as a replacement alternative for taio in that combo.

[@ahfmobile]

Doesn't matter, the mere threat is sufficient for Uke to become weak in another direction. If they react to (say) ouchi then they set themselves to be thrown with tai-o even if it is not your best attack.

[@mattbrook8740]

Harai goshi

[@PegLegNinja]

Appreciated!

[@cerotidinon]

Harai goshi is nice together with osoto, since you can jump around while being attached to the leg (both ways). However, uchi mata goes well with ouchi and transitions nicely into taio again. So those two may be an option.

[@marksoberay2318]

My club banned that cause too dangerous on knee
