Step by step
The whole sequence in words. Described in the standard right-handed form.
- Feel their sole arrive against the outside of your heel as they attempt Ko-soto-gari.
- Lift the attacked foot clear and keep both grips, staying tall.
- Step that foot down between theirs and continue turning into them.
- Pull the sleeve up and across so their chest comes onto your back, hips tight to theirs.
- Swing your near leg back between their legs and lift the inside of their thigh.
- They rotate over your hip onto their back; keep the sleeve throughout.
