For folks who attended practice this week, here's a link to a pretty
good video demonstration of Uchi Mata.

~You can see tori stepping back, heel first, with the leg he will use
to support himself during throw
~You can see tori's supporting foot point forward, same direction uke
is facing, during throw
~You can see how tori's reaping leg, which is bent, goes straight back
~You can see how tori's supporting leg springs up at same time his
reaping leg goes back
~You can see tori's kuzushi, how he pulls uke's arm up, pulls uke's
chest onto his side, for full upper body contact
~You can see tori's hips centered in front of uke's hips when he enters
~You can see tori turn his hips 180 degrees; tori's hips face uke when
he starts, tori's hips face away from uke when he throws
