Reversals and Grappling

Worked on reversals:

Reversal from a Sankyo, as they are placing the lock you continue your arm along the circle it creates with your body and pull your arm down as your grab onto their wrist and apply a counter lock of Nikyu, Gokyu etc.  <explain more>

Reversal from a ski to kotagaeshi to kotagaeshi, as punch comes in they counter with kotagaeshi and as they Tenkan around for hte lock you jump around the circle and place you foot next to theirs and Tenkan to use their momentum against them and apply your own tenkan.  Need to remember Tenkan, Irimi across and Tenkan again to stay on the circle and not get clocked in the head when they whip around.

Counter Shihonage to Kaitenage(check if right name).  As the lock for Shihonage is being applied, which they are sliding across your back you extend your arm forward and untwist it.  As you do this your other arm pulls their head to your locked arm shoulder and Tenkan around them. You other arm entwines with theirs to keep their arm down and connected to you while you Tenkan and then raise that arm up as they face you and drop them with Kaitenage.

GRAPPLING ON THE GROUND.  When you are knocked to the ground or trip etc. you raise your legs up a bit and lean back to keep maximum distance from the attacker.  Using your legs like hands you keep contact with heit knees or thighs as they approach you.  use this to push them away and keep contanct on their arms with yours.  This will allow you to stretch them out and apply a lock hold like Gokyu or others.
