Sunday the 14th

•T.K.A day: step&hook, inside of foot to outside of partner's foot, lift slightly and snap-over the trapped foot. As a drill, take up the foot and stutter-step while holding the foot-hooked so that you're hopping on one leg and shuffling forward.

some points:

step and expand, "like a big peacock"
• hips forward, don't turn out/away from your opponent
• change posture from hollowed to expanded chest

•TKA with a follow-up: if the opponent steps that foot back, swing knee up and over in a knee circle and step/lunge deeply back across the front of your partner. Knee down, toe to the mat, heel up. Its the "shuai jao" style throw. We did something very similar with Kurrinoy.

•cross-side inside trip: same as the "TKA" but attack the cross-side foot so that partner steps out, turn away from the oppoent and switch hips dropping from one side to the other and swing backward into the throw. This is a front trip/podnoshka, not a hip-throw, the mechanics are wrong for this here.
