Look where you want them to land! Whenever you want to throw someone from or sweep from position, you need to align your body's structure and in the direction of the throw/sweep. Only a unified effort recruiting every part of your body will get the job done against resistance. One of the best ways to do this is to obey the simple adage – LOOK WHERE YOU WANT YOUR OPPONENT TO LAND. In many cases (there are ) this simple of looking will get your pointed in the correct direction. The head leads the body and will thus help you create a unified effort in the proper direction to get the results you seek. Here, Nicky Ryan launches into a beautiful hook sweep (sumi gaeshi). By looking where he wants his opponent to land he creates a powerful body align that creates high amplitude and a spectacular finish. Next you are sweeping from bottom, employ this simple but very useful principle and you can get results!
