Ground - Over Under Defense

Defense against someone trying to get Overhooks and Under hooks for a possible throw/takedown.

That trip at the end looks a lot like tai otoshi. A little tip for that to avoid injury say if the guy is bigger & heavier is to turn the knee of the tripping leg inwards & downwards so that if his weight hits your knee it won't snap the knee sideways and tear your ACL.

Thanks. Tai otoshi can be done both ways depending on a lot of variables. Weight of opponent, hip connection, calf intent. Distance of throw or trip is also more a philosophical decision. Our art, we tend to want them in most cases to stay near us so we can keep in contact and pin. Other styles primarily want to throw the subject away, which even with us there is a time and a place for that kind of decision. And of course when stopping to explain things 'in the middle' while talking to the camera and also looking to my right (where the monitor was), all these little feelings and variables change.
