Ito Sensei discusses and demonstrates techniques versus a shove or hard push. A shove is typically a close quarters combat technique and most times it is used as either an intimidation technique or as a setup for another attack. In any encounter, spacing and timing are crucial to success. When a shove has occurred, the spacing has collapsed, so we have to time the move just right or we’ll lose the momentum or absorb too much of its power.
