I read this somewhere (sorry, I don’t know who’s quote it is): “Taking another’s balance is easier said than done, but if done well, the throw becomes a forgone conclusion. Uke can be tricked, lured, tripped, distracted, struck, pushed, or pulled off balance”.
Without taking balance you are forced to “muscle” the technique, but for a petite 5’2” with zero muscle mass, to muscle a technique is not an option…
