Mizu-nagare (Water Flow)
Tori and Uke walk towards each other diagonally across the mat. They meet in the centre. Uke reaches with his left hand for Tori´s armour over front neck/chest. Uke holds his right hand on his back right hip. He is reaching for a dagger. The purpose of Uke´s movement is to grab Tori and stab him with a dagger. Just as Uke is about to grip Tori´s collar, Tori moves backwards. Uke leans forwards. Tori grips Uke´s left hand from below with his right hand. Tori lifts Uke´s left elbow from below with his left hand. Tori breaks Uke´s balance to Uke´s left front. Tori changes his grip. He moves his left hand from under Uke´s elbow to the inside of the elbow. Tori pushes Uke´s arm to the side. Uke makes a big fall to the side. |
