The Tenno-uchi and especially Sashigari cannot be understood unless correct action has been learned by constant Jodan-uchi in the initial stages. The normal idea is for students of 3rd Kyu status to begin a study of Tenno-uchi and 1st Kyu students to begin Sashigari. This does not mean that such techniques may not be experimented with but if allowed to form the basis of technique too early, the technique and style cannot develop.
