Kuzure-kesa-gatame to Ude-garami
The broken scarf hold leaves your partner's far arm free, and the usual thing they do with it is push. Ude-garami folds that arm back on itself. Age limits apply to joint locks; learn this only under instruction.

Step by step
The whole sequence in words. Described in the standard right-handed form.
- Hold them in Kuzure-kesa-gatame at their right side.
- Feel them bring their left arm across to push at your head or shoulder.
- Trap that wrist against the mat with your left hand, keeping their elbow bent at a right angle.
- Thread your right hand under their upper arm and grip your own left wrist, forming the figure four.
- Keep their elbow at a right angle and rotate their forearm slowly towards their feet, lifting the elbow a little.
- Apply the pressure slowly and stop the moment they tap. Never apply it quickly.
