Step by step

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

  1. Take your right grips and attack with O-soto-gari, reaping the back of their right leg.
  2. Feel them hop or step backwards out of the reap.
  3. Follow with the sleeve, staying close and keeping their upper body moving backwards.
  4. Sweep the outside of their nearest heel with the sole of your left foot as it touches down.
  5. Continue immediately into a second sweep on the same line as the other foot lands, keeping their chest travelling back.
  6. They lose both feet and land on their back; keep the sleeve and stay balanced over them.
