22/4 Irimi Nage, Kokyu Nage, Koshi Nage

Yokomen/Shomen uchi Irimi Nage Assuming Uke attack with right hand, raise left hand to deflect, then use right hand to cut from top then down, while left hand will catch Uke's neck. Complete Irimi Nage Assuming Uke attack with left hand, deflect with left hand, then finish similar to Yokomen Ryotedori Kokyu Nage/Koshi Nage Assuming left forward stance. Step back (Tenshin) and turn Uke's right hand similar to a Nikkyo lock (Nage left palm on outside). Move back in with left waist leaning on Uke and perform Kokyu throw Same like Kokyu until the last part. Similar to leaning the body, we lean in but we do a small Irimi Tenkan step to make our head turn 180 degrees to the other direction while bending down. Then finish the Koshi Nage

Prologue

I'm an Aikidoka currently practicing the art of Aikido in Malaysia. I will be going for my Shodan exam this year, and therefore I came up with the idea of maintaining a blog to keep track of some notes or advice given by my Sensei in class. I first got to know about Aikido through a diving friend in 2008 when I expressed interest to pick up a "soft" martial art like Taichi. Thus he brought me to experience a class in KL. I became very much interested in the art, and the rest is history. When I first started, I pretty much took Aikido as a hobby and chance for me to do some much needed exercise for maintaining my health and weight. So at first I was quite reluctant to take exams to advance in the ranks. And to be frank, I have never imagined that one day I would reach the Yudansha levels. But my Sensei advised me to proceed with the exam so I can gauge my own progress in the art. So here I am, at first Kyu after 9 years, going for the Shodan exam. Wish me luck!
