Hi all

I'm having a problem with the difference between these two forward throws...

Harai Goshi (Sweeping hip)
Yama Arashi (Mountain Storm)

The only difference my feeble brain can see is the grip - Harai grips on both sides (right at his left high lapel for right leg throw) Yama grips both at the right sleeve - left at the elbow, right at the high lapel)

Can anyone help? Is there a difference in the kuzushi that I'm not seeing?

Now that you brought it up, good question After a bit of research it appears that they are the same throw, the only thing that seperates them is the grip and their category. One being a hip throw, other being a leg throw.

Thanks Brighthand - I suspected it was just the grip. The grip does give the Yama Arashi more of a leg throw type angle.

Nice link Jack - I'm very familiar with the website - no help on my question there - no mention of Yama Arashi on that page!

Quite the only thing that seperates the two is the grip.

I'm still pretty much cinvinced that there must also bee some difference in the Kuzushi - I don't see how I can break balance to the front & upwards like in Harai Goshi when in the Yama Harashi grip. Feels very much like I'm setting up a winding throw - in fact, I've pulled off Yama Arashi from a failed Soto-Makikomi a few times.

I generally describe Mountain Storm as a high sweeping action with the leg - often at mid-shin to hip-level. Additionally there is little contact between the two players hips during the action.

Hari goshi describes a lower sweeping action with the leg, generally striking on the shin. Because the shin is being struck and lifted, it requires greater contact with the hips.

Hope that helps some!
