Occasionally I get something a little right, and manage to lead the uke to the mat without it taking any effort, and when I know that the uke is not just falling for me. Then I am amazed at the Magic of it all. The next throw I am lucky if I don't fall on the uke at the end of the technique, after powering through the whole thing with me shoulders...
