Katatedori Shihonage via Nikyo

May 04
2010

Both in gyakuhanmi; Nage in hidari hanmi; Uke grips in katatedori.

Slide slightly to the left off the line of attack and take Uke‘s grip into the initial nikyo position. His arm should be bent as you are about to do nikyo – his elbow will be pointing outward to your left at this instant.

Release your left grip on his wrist and slide your hand down to his elbow. Push his elbow in a large circular motion counter-clockwise by about 180 degrees (his elbow will be pointing right by the end). At the same time release your right-hand grip on his palm and re-grab his wrist. Your left hand should be on his elbow (not grabbing it), and your right hand should be holding his wrist like you would a baseball bat.

Your current position should now resemble a basic katatedori shihonage, except Uke‘s arm is highly bent and well controlled.
