O-soto-guruma

Tori breaks uke’s balance towards the rear, puts his right leg diagonally across the back of uke’s legs, and, using this leg as a fulcrum, throws uke backwards in a rotating motion.

Both sides grapple in right natural posture. Tori steps back with his right foot, then his left foot, and his right foot again. He begins to pull uke forward to break his balance and draws uke’s upper body downwards with both hands, then comes to a halt. At this moment, uke responds by stepping forward with his left foot, then his right foot, then his left foot again, holds his ground, and, while straightening up, steps back with his left foot, and begins to return to a stable posture.

At this moment, tori lessens the pulling action of the right hand and pushes so that uke begins to step with his left foot by supporting his body weight on the right foot and lifts the left foot. At that moment, tori lowers his waist and steps his left foot deep to the side of uke’s right foot. He lifts and pulls with the right hand, and, pulling with the left hand, brings their chests together, breaking uke’s balance towards the rear. Uke steps his left foot onto the mat, so that he takes a right posture (his feet in a narrow stance), his weight falls over both heels, and, bending back, his balance breaks towards the rear.

Maintaining firmness in this posture, tori supports his body weight on the left leg and, swinging his right leg, places it diagonally across the back of uke’s right thigh and left knee. He lifts up with the right hand pushing uke backward, and, drawing his left hand towards his armpit, pulls down, bends forward, and, while twisting to the left, throws uke around the fulcrum of his right leg in a circular motion. Uke is thrown forward in a large rotating motion.
