Tuesday Program: Rolls Galore

Tuesday is newaza night and we will work on several popular rolls, namely:
a) Matsumoto Roll
b) Funakubo Roll
c) Fletcher Wrapover

Matsumoto Roll
The Matsumoto Roll is considered a kind of "hand sankaku" which apparently originated from wrestling. This technique was made famous by Kaori Matsumoto but it's actually seldom seen in judo.


Funakubo Roll
The Funakubo Roll involves a similar "climbing over uke's back" movement as the Matsumoto Roll but the gripping is totally different.


Fletcher Wrapover
The Fletcher Wrapover has a similar gripping situation as the Funakubo Roll but the turnover action is a lot simpler and it's over uke's front rather than back.
