Gyaku Waza - What is exactly this?
Hi, how are you?
I kinda understand this as techniques of control, but I'm not sure about is classified, for example:
- Wrist control techniques are Kote Gaeshi, they are many kinds of Kote Gaeshi variants and can give a number for classification like Kote Gaeshi #1, Kote Gaeshi #2, etc. Is this correct or how do you work with Kote Gaeshi?.
- Techniques that apply pressure over articulations are Kansetsu Waza, does this Kansetsu Waza integrated Gyaku Waza as a Control techniques?
- Does Kansetsu Waza has it variants like Kote Gaeshi and are refered with given numbers (#1, #2, #3, etc.)?
- How about Ikkyo, Nikyo, Ude Garami, and others.
- How many or at least what are the principal classification for Gyaku Waza techniques?
- Now, Is Katame Waza all the lock techniques on the ground?, if so, a complete sequence of a defensive action will be like starting with Atemi waza, then using Gyaku Waza or Nage Waza, and finally end with Katame Waza, right?
Kinda confused about it, I want to know how a Martial art use this kind of Waza (techniques) classification.
I don't wanna start inventing names for techniques I don't know where it comes or where it resides.
I hope I don't confuse you , just any information you can provide to me to understand more this system of Waza.
Thanks and have a nice day!
