Leg Drag Drill

Introducing a leg drag drill designed to enhance the fluidity and speed of executing leg drags for both the practitioner on top and the one on the bottom. The drill involves the top person practicing the leg drag while the bottom person focuses on hip movement and re-centering to defend against the drag.

1. Start with the bottom person placing their feet on the hips of the top person.
2. The top person performs the leg drag, while the bottom person circles their hip out and re-centers, alternating sides.
3. Emphasize a free-flowing movement rather than stiffness, maintaining constant motion without pausing.
4. Practice dragging to both sides to develop ambidexterity and improve reaction time to various responses from the bottom person.
5. Ensure the top person stays low throughout the drill, keeping their knees bent and not standing up straight.
6. Continue the drill for an extended period, such as 3 to 10 minutes, to build muscle memory and reaction speed.
7. The bottom person benefits by improving their timing and ability to defend against the leg drag through repetitive drilling.

This drill is a dynamic way to practice the leg drag pass and its defense, aiming to create instinctive reactions and a smooth flow between partners.
