Re: Shihonage roll-out

This happened at our dojo a few weeks ago, we where pinned and tried to get out.
(yoshinkan btw)
If you have pinned with your right arm your left knee is down. This should be inline with your right foot. Your wrist should be inline with this too. This allows your body weight to hold the person down flat. When demonstrated on me it was impossible to get up no matter which way i tried to wriggle, twist turn etc.

Re: Shihonage roll-out

Drop weight on forearm with leg allowing you pin and free a hand to strike

One method I have used in the past is when you finish executing shiho nage and you have your left knee up and your right knee down (I am looking at this from a Yoshinkan approach) I will spin on my right knee dropping my left knee to his face. I will put my left knee into ukes face/throat while maintaining that shiho nage lock. I will then torque on ukes wrist pulling it to my center. This usually stops them from wiggling out of shiho nage.

Yes.

During the drop, do not step forward. Just drop vertically on the spot. The feeling is like Osoto-otoshi.. i.e., the victim ( I mean uke) will have a feeling that his legs are swept under him.

Assuming the ground is solid asphalt and not padded mat, this will prevent uke from rolling out and also doing any other other physical activity for a while.

If there are padded mat... then following advices from post # 26, 27 & 28 are also fine.

Re: Shihonage roll-out

We were just working on this pin last night, and found that, in addition to much of what has been mentioned above, that the angle that nage forms to uke's body makes a big difference. This is because it affects the vector of force that nage's forearm makes to uke's upper arm. If nage is, for instance, 90° to uke, the forearm is pushing down, but also more or less away; any slight attempt at a roll will create slack, allowing further roll and escape. But if nage is 45° or so to uke, the vector pushes down and towards the top of their head. This rotates the elbow towards the mat, and not so much across uke's head. And all this, of course, is in addition to pinning the shoulder, taking the hand in a spiral down and away from the head, lining up your weight on the pinning hand, etc.
We were working mostly on a standing pin, but the same variables would apply to kneeling, with or without using uke as a knee cushion.

Regards,

Brion Toss

Re: Shihonage roll-out

Try this. The Uke's hand should be tight to the shoulder, with both your hands on the arm. Your lower hand should be on the wrist and pinning down into the mat but with a slight twist towards the Uke. This puts your forearm in contact with the middle of the Uke's upper arm. Any attempt by the Uke to roll out applies pain to the nerve point in his/her arm (assuming they feel that they can move at all)
You can of course increase the twist (slowly) until the Uke taps anyway. Just remember that it is the Uke's turn next, unless like me, you are the teacher!

Re: Shihonage roll-out

Thanks again for everyone's input. A friend of mine helped me work through this and found that keeping the shoulder pinned is key. Now, back to the dojo!

Not good... sitting gives very little body contact, furthermore, your center of gravity is way too high up.

Re: Shihonage roll-out

Some styles allow for a breakfall "up and over" from shiho nage, others such as Yoshinkan style pin hard to the floor. Both are possible. The latter pin is often more self defence or aiki jitsu based styles of aiki.

Re: Shihonage roll-out

If you can, grabbing uke's thumb firmly with your outside hand should prevent all (except those who wish a broken thumb) from rolling out.

Peace,
