Uke attacks by grabbing the shoulder and striking with shomenuchi (no step).

Method 1

Nage pivots off-line on the side that is grabbed and the leading hand blends with the downward strike, rather than actually blocking it. The tenkan causes Uke to become off-balance. This is the basic movement that can then lead into ikkyo, nikyo, sankyo, shihonage, kotegaeshi, kaitennage, iriminage etc.

Method 2

If Nage has sufficient time to respond he can enter directly while Uke‘s striking hand is still raising or is at its peak.
