Kaiten-nage

(spiral throw) 2nd form left side

Your partner's right hand grasps your left wrist. Keep your left arm straight and step with your left foot to the left. Attack your partner's face with your right hand. Follow down with your right hand pushing it under your partner's right arm. Step with your right foot so as to turn your hips, going underneath his arm with your head coming through last. Catch the back of his head with your right hand, your left hand grasping his wrist, and push his arm in the direction towards his head thus throwing him. Try not to break your own balance when you throw. But if you are off-balance, take another step forward to regain it, keeping the front leg slightly bent.
