O-uchi-gari into Tai-otoshi

  1. O-uchi-gari大内刈
  2. Tai-otoshi体落

The classic back-then-front pair. The inner reap makes your partner post their weight backwards to survive; the instant that defence lands, their weight is perfectly placed for the body drop the other way.

Step by step

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

  1. Attack honestly with the major inner reap: your right calf hooks their left leg and your hands drive them backwards.
  2. Feel their defence: they pull back and press their weight forward against you to save the reap.
  3. Do not fight the defence. Release the reap, plant your right foot, and turn with their forward pressure.
  4. Step into the body drop: left foot back and across, right leg barred across their right shin, hands wheeling left.
  5. Their own recovery powers the second throw; they rotate over the barred leg and land on their back in front of you.
