Re: Reversals

I'd say teach 'em once they get proficient with the techniques they're going to and from. Using one that Daren listed, Irimi nage to koshi; once irimi nage and koshi and are able to execute them both with consistency and overall goodness, combind them. But I'd say a "kaeshiwaza" situation isn't the time to be learning how koshi works, either nage's role or the ukemi for it, ya dig?

That being said, I'll go with an answer for the original post. I thought it was neat one my sensei showed going from irimi nage to, I think, kaiten nage. When nage's arm goes up to do the "clothes line" move, uke grabs the hand and moves under the arm. and ta-da!
