remembering details

just a few more things I remember from class:

sensei c instructed that osotogari on round house punch should be a continuous twisting down of uke to corner.
- sweeping foot does not touch ground again until after sweep and is placed next to other foot and you're standing over uke
- when you punch into armpit, keep back straight, and let punching hand follow the lenghth of the arm and look at target, not by hunching head or shoulder over, but just looking down w/ eyes

another was from sensei s
- use the whole body + legs when lifting arm of uke
as uke goes to strike face
- you parry, place hand under uke elbow, other hand at uke wrist, and use legs
(not arms) to push uke arm up. creates lock and off balance
