Mae Ryō Kata Dōri – Kokyū Nage Kazuo Chiba Variation

As in the classical Mae Ryō Kata Dōri Kokyū-nage, Tori places both forearms on Uke’s elbows, lifting one while lowering the other. However, instead of directly using this leverage to throw Uke as in the classical form, he drops to one knee and uses Uke’s inertia to pass under both arms, and throws him as he lowers his upper body. On the ground, Tori maintains control and transitions into an Ude Garami pin.
