Purpose
Kata (form) is a prearranged set of techniques to teach, learn and practice the techniques and principles of Judo and to blend/harmonize (ri ai) them by practicing.
Koshi waza (Hip Techniques/Hip Throws) have as a principle to use your hip as a fulcrum to execute a throw. Close hip to hip contact (the hip of Tori very close below the Center of Mass of Uke), that your hip as a fulcrum can work most efficiently and not much lifting is involved. It's more like tilting/tipping.
The mechanics of Hip throws are different because of the axis, Uke is thrown:
A) Rotating Uke
- a) around your hip
- b) over your hip
B) Wheeling Uke over your hip
C) Loading Uke on your hip
D) Shifting Uke on your hip
This Kata can be taught starting with green belt. I tried to use common throws - as far as possible - in Competition Judo for demonstrating the principles and mechanics of Koshi waza also to close the gap between Kata and Shiai. Students should have a benefit practicing Kata both in understanding the principles and mechanics of Judo and success in contest.
