Hiza-guruma

English: knee wheel

basics
same principle as sasae-tsuri-komi-ashi but
* instead of turning away tori now faces uki, blocks the knee and wheels uki over
* hands make circling motion
* considerable space between uki and tori
* uki does not trip, but is wheeled over the blocking foot at the knee
* attack trailing leg as uki leans forward



1) tori and uki start from basic right kumi-kata (ai-yotsu): right hand lapel, left hand sleeve, right foot forward)
2) tori pulls uki in counter clockwise rotation,
3) tori attacks uki's right leg when it is trailing and about to come forward,
4) attacking leg is straight, tori's hands make whirling motion to wheel uki over
