General Training Thoughts on my Seoi Nage?

This was at a judo for BJJ type of class but I’ve recently switched over to a Judo gym since I realized I enjoy it much more. I’ve discovered Seoi Nage throws are my favorite but I can’t say they come easy to me. Just wanted to share.

they're harder when doing them slow, great work. try to pull their leading arm to your hip as you throw and remember it is a squat, it's hard to see if your legs were too close together or not. While balance is good, it's also completely valid to just fall on them.
