Ushiro Goshi Overview

Ushiro goshi is a rear hip throw executed from behind the opponent. This judo technique leverages the thrower's hip position and body rotation to project the opponent backward over the hip.

Starting Position and Grip

The thrower positions themselves behind the opponent and secures an appropriate grip around the torso or arms. Proper positioning ensures maximum mechanical advantage and control throughout the technique.

Hip Placement and Entry

The thrower drives their hip into the opponent's lower back while bending the knees to lower the center of gravity. This hip contact serves as the primary fulcrum for executing the throw.

Rotation and Follow-Through

The thrower rotates their torso and pulls the opponent across and over their hip in a controlled motion. Proper timing of the rotation combined with hip drive generates momentum for the throw completion.

Finishing Position

The opponent is projected backward and downward in an arc, landing on their back while the thrower maintains control through the final positioning. This technique demonstrates the efficiency of using hip mechanics for rear-direction throws.
