Mr. Ledyard,

By this do you mean a prescribed technique, for example in a class situation where the teacher has shown a specific technique, and nage should be able to do that technique? Or do you mean that nage should be able to do some technique, maybe having to change to another technique?

I think your post is really important and gave me some things to think about for awhile, thanks.
