HistóriaOuter‑reap focus: Brighton Jitsu Club breaks down O Soto and Ko Soto variations
Brighton Jitsu Club has assembled a tidy outer‑reap series, walking through O Soto Gari, O Soto Gake, Ko Soto Gake and Ko Soto Gari with clear grips, kuzushi and finishing mechanics [1][2][3][4].Each short clip emphasises beginner‑friendly footwork and balance breaking, then layers timing cues and variations, contrasting reaps (gari) with hooks (gake) to solve common resistance [1][2][3][4].The set also maps when to switch from major to minor entries to follow the same line of attack—useful for self‑defence progressions and randori in the club’s syllabus [2][3][4]. It’s a concise refresher that fits the club’s practical, no‑ego approach to training [1].
