Judo Hip Throw Technique Illustration - Learn Proper Form and Mechanics #2261185 (License: Personal Use)

This sketch illustrates the Koshi Guruma (hip wheel) throw, a fundamental judo technique where the defender uses their hip as a pivot to lift and rotate the opponent. The attacker maintains a strong kumikata (grip), steps in with proper footwork, and drives forward while lowering their center of gravity to execute the throw cleanly. The drawing emphasizes body alignment, timing, and balance disruption critical to successful application.
