Re: Koshinage trouble

proper build up to the technique is very important.
Actually koshinage should be easier than forward standing ukemi....

I start with someone on hands and knees and have other rol over that person. You would grab around the shoulder (like normal koshinage) and roll. This gives confidence in how to perform the roll itself.
Next a person stand like in preparation for leapfrog you might know from school the other would try and lay across on the koshi (hip) withou rolling yet.

Finally the complete exercise...

In a real fight:
* If you make a bad decision, you die.
* If you don't decide anything, you die.
Aikido teaches you how to decide.
