Harai-makikomi

Harai-makikomi is a sweeping wraparound sacrifice throw. From a harai-goshi entry, Tori releases the right grip, turns left while trapping Uke's right arm beneath the right armpit, and falls forward so Uke wraps around Tori's body.

  2. Release the right grip, clamp Uke's right arm under the right armpit, and keep the torso wrapped tightly.
  3. Continue the leftward turn into a controlled forward sacrifice while the right thigh completes the sweep.
  4. Maintain the controlling grip, guide Uke to a safe landing, and practise the action under qualified supervision.
