Standing Loop Choke

Found this nice choke. Can see this as an application for the spear hand (not sure if this the right name) we see in kanku dai etc.

Nice find and a good instructional video. It’s similar to the one we use in “Yodan 2” i.e. application of the gedan-juji-uke (“lower cross block”), with the exception of the arm being wrapped in the version we do. You can see it in this old video on Pinan / Heian Yodan.

All the best,

Iain
