Tai-otoshi

English: body drop

basics (right version - ai-yotsu)
start from basic sleeve/lapel grip
  • tori steps with right leg, place right foot just inside and in front of uke's right foot
  • tori spins in a smooth motion on the ball of his right foot, rotating hips 180 degrees, places left foot outside and in front of uke's left foot
  • tori uses both arms to pull uke close, as soon as tori's left foot touches the ground his weight goes on it, and tori's right leg shoots in front of uke
  • tori bend knees, to get below uke's center of gravity.
  • momentum from tori's body dropping unbalances uke completely
  • tori's legs straighten, an both arms are pulling tori over

arm drill
  • start in kneeling position with basic sleeve/lapel grip
  • tori extends right leg, and give s little push to uke's left to get a reaction
  • left arm pulls hard on the sleeve (horizontal), right arm tuck elbow in under uke's armpit and tori's body twists
  • uke is pulled over to this right side
Combinations
o-uchi-gari into tai-otoshi 1
uki defends to o-uchi-gari by stepping back, this creates space and proper stance for tai-otoshi
  • uki has left grip, and left leg forward
  • tori attacks with ocuchi gari, uki opens up and pushes forward
  • uki lifts left leg and steps backward in defence
  • tori launches tai-otoshi attack when uki left foot touches the mat, making use of uki's resistance and forward push
  • tori now pulls uki forward, tai-otoshi against uki's right forward leg

  • tori attacks with ko-uchi gari,
  • uki steps over
  • switch sides of attack, take big step following uki's stepping backwards leg
