BTW, note the neat momentum-tripping up throw sensei does @ 0:26, man, that's presence of mind, to be able to change your throws on the fly, from kokyu nage ,while a bunch of crazed black belts barreling in on you.
Yeah, Lordosaya,I love it, but it can be hard to come back to the dojo the next day. In this class, we did those high breakfalls about 80x. Sensei likes to call these, "flying lessons". Notice sensei is watching uke just as closely as nage. And he gives away a pearl of wisdom about kotegaeshi, @0:58. Everyone hear is dying to be thrown by sensei. Don't be thrown off by the sound, the harder you slap the mat with your leading hand, the less it hurts! I learned THAT the hard way.
