Hip/Bump sweep drill from guard
This is the first drill I contribute to this page and this one I have made up all by myself. I hope you will at least try it.
The purpose for posting this drill here is that I wish to hear what you think of it.
This drill is very free and you will need a good partner/uke for training this.. Without a good uke you will never get tired of this drill but with someone who knows what they're doing I hope that you will get something out it.
Don't look too much at how the techniques are done but try to look at how the flow is created.
I've shown this drill without any resistanse from the uke (mostly because my dad (Sören Ahlner) didn't know this drill or the techniques covered here before this.) but this is a free drill made to get you close to randori/sparring but in a repetive way of training without losing the flow.
My name is Gustaf Ahlner and I want to hear every reflection on this drill =)

The technigue for flipping I will not show any deeper and I beg you not to look at the pictures and judging from them… I had to teach this technique to my dad a few minutes before taking the photos.






















Comments
hm.. a little fault i see now... In the brief introduction to the drill I've stated that only one person works.. sorry for that.. =/
thanks for the drill! I'm sure you'll get tons of comments! if you need me to edit anything, just send me a pm as to what you want, and i'll fix it!
Who's the photographer? =)
I've done a similar drill in which both partners work. The bottom man from guard executes a hip/bump sweep (similar to the one you've shown). This puts him in the mount. The bottom person then executes an upa for the reverse back into guard. Repeat across the mat.

Ok. Thanks for the name! I've needed a name for that technique. How do you mean that he executes "an upa"? Is there anyway you can show/link to the upa technique?
i think upa is just a hip bump
upa is just bridging your hips. Trap one arm and the same side leg, bridge up and then over to that side... upa
Right leg hospital-Left leg cemetary.
Doesn't the underhook make this sweep weaker than if you were to swing your right arm over the top guy's body completely and grab his right gi sleeve at the elbow?

Well.. I'm sure there are better ways of doing this then the way i did especially with the arms. I can only tell you to look at the Hip Bump technique availiable at this site.

If there's some comments to the technique they should be done there.
