Koshi Nage – Ikkyō Omote Entry Direct Variation
⛩️ Source
This excerpt comes from “Apprendez l’Aikido” (on-screen spelling; likely intended as “Apprenez l’Aïkido”), a 1985 instructional seminar video featuring Christian Tissier (then aged 34), produced and presented by the Italian imprint Aikido e Dintorni, whose banner (www.aikidoedintorni.com) appears repeatedly throughout the footage.
It was most likely filmed during a seminar in Italy and distributed as a small-run VHS production, but the exact filming location, organizing dojo, and original distribution details remain unverified.
🔖 Technique Notes
Uke grabs Tori’s wrist in Ai Hanmi Katate Dōri. Tori raises his arm, seizes Uke’s elbow, and steps to the inside, as in the beginning of Ikkyō Omote. As he raises Uke's arm, Tori joins his feet and lowers his center, placing his hips just under Uke's center. Then, Tori lowers Uke's arm (Ikkyō's cut) as he retreats his hip, making Uke roll over it.
