In MMA this technique is particularly effective as it is very easy to transition from the pinning position into a position wherein you can get free strikes for your opponents and it is a near unbeatable pin if you are of equal weight. Just trap their vulnerable arm with your legs (sometimes securing an arm bar but that is not necessary for the pin) and trap their other arm by containing it in your far arm from your body - wrapping around their arm so that their tricep is in your 'elbow pit' and tucking your hand on said arm behind your head like you're blocking a hook. This leaves you left arm free to strike their entirely vulnerable face.
Is this not kubinage? And is it not prohibited because of its danger in most judo competitions? I know koshiguruma and kubinage look very similar, but here you've gone right around the head as opposed to holding a high grip, so is this not kubinage and not koshiguruma?
not saying she's wrong or anything, but I feel the pacing/detail was kind of lacking. don't get me wrong, I love the uploads and very much appreciate all the videos including this one the problem was just that - she went very fast in the actual execution [not necessary, could slow down to show leverage and explain hips/grips/etc] - didn't mention the details in hips until the end [and with short detail] - didn't mention the footing at all really you can still learn how to execute from this video, but will miss the finer details that differentiate one throw from another//changes that may increase the percentage of success
+taimaishu99 Hey, thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. I get where you are coming from, I think that Xuan Yi was aiming this tutorial more on the aspect of pinning as a means to control/score than to going through the Hip Throw in more detail. A lot of the instructors on this channel have to fit in filming this tutorials with very little time (as they are often done in between classes, before them or at the end of) as I try to visit them whilst they would normally be there (everyone on the channel donates their time/expertise completely free of charge to grow the resource) so as to avoid any undue cost on their time. Sometimes this means we get one go at a video. If anything is to blame for videos lacking depth at times, it is often just time. Xuan Yi is an excellent instructor and this tutorial (along with her other on the reverse seoi nage) is great. Would it have been better with more time, for sure! We get what we can though ha ha. I am glad you have been enjoying the channel though, I do appreciate you watching and your feedback, I hope there will be many more you enjoy!
Stuart Tomlinson not a problem at all, really though thank YOU for all the great content, it really is great that you're able to record and share all these techniques, I really don't see anyone else doing it as widespread as you do! Also thanks for checking in on the comment as well as the explanation, that explanation is completely understandable.
+taimaishu99 Ha ha, you are too kind, I enjoy what I am doing and I am glad other people (yourself included) are enjoying it and getting something from it! I do travel a fair amount ;-) I am currently just coming to the end of a 10 day trip touring all the Kickboxing gyms in Holland so some fun stuff to come for sure!! You are more than welcome, thank you for your reply!
