Pounce On – rotational randori (stand up or grappling)
This fatigues the practitioner by having fresh opponents to spar. Pushing the practitioner to develop better technique in stead of just using strength in throwing. This is a good drill for preparing someone for competition.

On The Move – Uchi komi on the move practicing timing and
footwork. Starting at one end of your training area, both you and your training partner move along aline towards the other end. You will practice your fitting in as the partner continually walks to the other end. Just before you reach the other end of the training hall, you execute a throwing techniuqe. Make sure you use the same technique throughout the whole drill. You may take turns with your partner practicing this drill for a set time limit of lengths of the hall.

- Then run to the other end and tag the mat and then return to execute another 5 uchi komi and throw,
- Then run to the other end to do 5 push ups and then return to your parnter and execute 5 uchi komi and throw,
- Again run to the other end of the mat and now do 5 sit ups and then finally return to excute 5 uchi komi and throw.

Your training partner now will complete the same drill. You and your partner may complete say three cycles of the drill and a challenge against other classmates.
