Speaking of "getting it"

... we were practicing morote-dori kokyu-nage, and I had a sudden sort of realization when nage was entering very deeply in the rotation of the throw. Something about that made the technique really come alive for me, and I was able to execute it without much muscular effort whatsoever when we switched.

It was really a mini-satori for me... I was very happy that I was able to learn something valuable from being uke and then translate that into effective nage...
