Renzoku practice

is extremely good for judging timing and distance as well as developing speed of thought but all Renzoku-waza are restricted to Sandan-waza or three step techniques, after which the match must be restarted. This is merely to eliminate scrappy play and the factor of luck rather than correct application of technique.

There are many variations, many of which depend upon the individual opponent's reaction against certain attacks. This is a matter of practising the basic forms, which can be easily worked out and adapted to circumstances at the time.
