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.

This might help, it might not. I see when you get uke over the point of balance, your head moves forward, looks like to kind of pull uke over your shoulder.

Instead try to drive your head in between your feet. Almost like you want to touch your nose to the floor I between your big toes.

Keep the grip strong and tight to your body.

This should give you more rotational energy and pull while keeping your self from leaning forward.

Looks good though!
