Single Leg Takedown

professor gino suggests keeping my head VERY high during the takedown to avoid uke stuffing my head. he suggests putting my head all the way up on uke's chest. also, during the sweep, he said its critical to minimize the amount of time the my head is close to his body but on the outside for fear of a giloutine. when i had previously learned the single leg takedown from prof. renee dryfuss, he suggested using the head as part of the sweep. professor gino's method of using the shoulder and stepping back with the foot seems to work better for me.
