KUZUSHI |
||||||||
| From a right natural posture (migi shizentai), step back with your right foot maintaining a steady pull, and make Uke follow you with his left foot. Continue pulling with your left hand to entice Uke's right foot forward. Follow this by breaking his balance to his right front corner (migi mae sumi) by steering Uke with both of your hands toward your left. | ||||||||
TSUKURI |
||||||||
| Withdraw your left foot to the rear just a little
while turning your body to the left. As your right hip passes by Uke,
straighten your right leg and place your calf muscle against his right
knee. Stretch out your right leg so that your ankle projects a little
past his right knee-cap and thereby blocks its advance. Think of it as Hiza Guruma, but facing in the same direction and blocking Uke’s knee with the back of your right leg rather than the soul of your left foot. It can also be thought of as performing Harai Goshi but with your leg across Uke's right knee instead of along the length of his right leg. With both of your hands draw Uke close to you and twist your body to the left. Your right elbow should be hooked under Uke's left armpit. |

KAKE |
||||||||
| Since the forward motion of his body has not been stopped, just blocked at the knee, Uke rotates over your extended leg in a large circle, and lands on the mat on his back. During the execution of the throw, maintain a strong steering motion while pushing back slightly with your right leg to help Uke loose contact with the mat. | ||||||||
