Irimi Nage – Morihei Ueshiba Sen Sen no Sen Linear Variation

Uke and Tori face each other. Tori initiates by raising his arm. Uke raises his arm to defend, resulting in a Men Uchi contact. Tori then lowers Uke’s arm as he enters to the outside, breaking Uke’s posture downward and forward. As Uke rises again, Tori wraps his arm around Uke’s head and cuts down while entering more deeply, completing the classic head-wrapping Irimi Nage.
