Suwari Waza – Kokyū Nage (90° Atemi Redirection) – Morihei Ueshiba Sen Sen no Sen Variation

Uke and Tori face each other, seated in seiza. Tori delivers an atemi to Uke’s face, and Uke raises his arm to protect himself, resulting in Men Uchi contact. Tori raises his free arm on the inside to make contact at Uke’s elbow, replacing his initial contact, and redirects Uke’s arm to the outside, at a 90° angle. Simultaneously, with the arm that made the Men Uchi contact, Tori strikes and pushes Uke’s head in the same direction, causing Uke to fall to the side.
