Here is a video I found of some guys doing the 8 releases exercise that we always warm up with and that I mention a lot. I call it "hanasu," or "wrist releases" most of the time that I refer to it. There are some stylistic differences (i.e. some of the angles are different and we don't specify particular throws or follow-ups associated with each release) - but still recognisable as what I'm talking about.
