Harai-goshi into O-soto-gari

  1. Harai-goshi払腰
  2. O-soto-gari大外刈

The classic renraku-waza pair, and the one the syllabuses name: Harai-goshi turns them forward, and the moment they lean away from it their weight is on the back heel that O-soto-gari reaps.

Step by step

The whole sequence in words. Described in the standard right-handed form.

  1. Take your right grips and turn in for Harai-goshi, loading them onto your right hip.
  2. Feel them lean back and post their right leg to stop the sweep.
  3. Step your right foot down beside their right foot and turn your chest to face them again.
  4. Pull down with the sleeve and drive your right lapel hand up into their chin line so their weight settles fully onto their right heel.
  5. Swing your right leg past their right leg and reap it sharply backwards while your upper body drives the opposite way.
  6. They fall straight back; keep the sleeve to support the landing.
