    Hiya,
    Just wondering what everybody's favourite or preferred jyuwaza techniques.
    I am trying to get some inspiration. I usually try to include an iriminage, ikkajo nage, hiji-ate kokyu nage. I learned an ude garami nage recently and thought about including that one too.

    But what are your preferred techniques?

    LOL! Tai sabaki! :) I get it.

    Besides "get out of the way!" I like irimi nage, because I'm tall. It's my go-to move. Conversely, I seldom do hip throws.

    If you're tall you should learn to do more hip throws. Being thrown by someone taller than you and landing hard is a massive drain on your energy. More so in my experience than being thrown by a smaller opponent. Landing hard from a higher place is psychologically very intimidating for many people.

    I used to do a lot of kokyunage, kotegaeshi and tenchinage.

    Thanks. I'll keep that in mind. Intimidating == good. :hat:
