Forward Foot Sweep

In this technique, you force your opponent to step forward, then sweep

his advancing foot out from under him.

Timing is crucial in this and other throwing techniques. Your opponent

must be just on the verge of placing his foot and most of his weight on the

mat. (This timing is applicable to sweeping the back foot as we11.) It is also

important that you curve your left foot enough to catch his foot well below

the ankle. (Fis. 8)

2. Begin in the right natliral posture.

3. Step back a bit larther than usual with

your right foot and pull your opponent forward

with your whole body. He will take a

large step with his left foot.

4. Loosen your right grip a bit and pull him

toward you with your lelt hand so that he

brings his right foot up close to his left.

5. Just as he is putting his right foot down.

sweep it in the direction it is traveling with

your left foot.

6. As you sweep, pull down hard with your

lelt hand.

7. Your opponent will flall, slapping the mat

with his lelt hand and arm.
