Circle Throw (move): Difference between revisions

I felt jujutsu had to be mentioned as well since it's the martial art from which judo originated from and the move it's a jujutsu move too. Then I corrected the fact that the grab is high but not necessarly from the head; could be by the back of the neck over the head, by the shoulders and by the arms.
