Tsuki Kokyunage Sotomawari

Jul 22

Both start in aihanmi. Tori in hidari hanmi. Uke steps in to tsuki with his right arm. Tori then does irimi parry slightly off the line of attack and blends with Uke‘s elbow with his tegatana. Tori then does a tenkan to the right as if to mirror the position of Uke. Tori then does kaitensoku back toward the left and extends both arms and pivots with his hips. This looks like the kokyu movement of O-Sensei. Extend hips to take Uke‘s center while pivoting hips and breathing out. Uke should be off-balance and fall.
