Samurai Overhead Throw

My name is Tom Cohen Martial Arts instructor of Makoto Dojo in Charlotte, North Carolina. Our website is www.martialartsnc.com. This clip will demonstrate basics of Oshi Taoshi or an overhead throw. As your opponent executes a frontal strike intercept his strike rotating wrist and the forearm thus elevating the elbow. When the elbow comes up, drop the elbow straight to your front knee as you take one very short step directly in front of his feet. Drop your knee directly to his shoulder breaking it. Slide your hand to his wrist breaking it execute a strike.
