Video Exercise: The Wansu
Earlier last month we asked you to vote for the technique that was most difficult for you to “let work”. It was an impressive list of some of the most effective and equally difficult techniques to master. You answered and an overwhelming majority voted for the Wansu Dump. In his first exercise on the Sanchin-Ryu Dojo, Chief Instructor Jim Cataline offers some amazing insight to the Wansu Dump with the help of District Master Duane King. This is a must see!

Thank you, Chief Instructor Master Cataline, for helping to de-mystify this dump. Breaking it down to its simple components as you did will hopefully help me improve my technique – as will practice, time, and willing victims, I mean partners
Chief Instructor Cataline,
Thank you for sharing, my question is about the snap back of the hip strike, should we actually snap the hip back after the strike or should we snap into the opponent after the strike? Perhaps during the turn when the arm comes up? I’ve watched the video several times but can’t spot where it is occuring.
Thanks in advance,
Bob
Great video…thank you Chief Instructor Master Cataline.I am looking at the previous video on the shutter step and thinking it would be interesting to play with bringing that into the dump technique.If, in a given scenario, one might choose not to step back into tight L,following the opening strikes of Wansu,the shutter step might be very useful….to move on into the dump.Just some thoughts…I’ll have to round up a partner to try it out.
Wow, I must have watched this film about a hundred times this week only to see another window! Amazing truly through such simplicity braches such a depth of study. I’ll never again be afraid of musiling now that my consentration has come to understanding stance!
-Thank you Master hoping to see you in the dojo again soon!!!!!!

Big THANKS from Louisville, KY. Master Cataline!
Mechanically, this seems to work very well. My question however is to why the left hand is placed between you and your opponent.
It seems almost natural to me to want to take hold of the opponents clothing at the right shoulder with the left hand and to use the imbalance caused by the pop of the hip and and leverage caused by the right arm underhook to pull down on the right arm while forcing the imbalance up with the underhook for maximum effectiveness.
