after being out a week with a sore wrist, i am back today for a lunchtime class with professor daniel. he went over two complex sweeps. i am unlikely to locate them on youtube. both of them start in the closed guard and uke stands up and breaks open the guard.
first sweep sequence: right hand controls uke's left sleeve. right foot pushes uke's left knee to gain distance and then place my right foot on uke's left hip. my left leg raps round uke's right knee (dela cava). my left hand grabs uke's right elbow. i push on uke's knee again to sit up, reach behind his right leg with my left arm and transfer control of his left sleeve to my left hand. my right hand grabs uke's left collar to prevent him from breaking the grip i have with my right hand. i kick his knee and pull uke towards me to complete the sweep. since i control his left wrist, he cannot base out.
second sweep sequence: right hand controls uke's right sleeve (cross grip). he stands up again. i again push off his knee and sit up and transfer control of the hand. however, this time, his left hand is free to base out. so i turn my body, keep my head in front of uke's groin (important), and hook is free leg with my right hand. i then hip out underneath him so that he rolls forward.
