6th Kyu Shomenuchi Iriminage Version 1 Omote

Downward strike to the head/ "Entering throw". There are actually two forms here. The first involves stepping off the line opposite to the strike and pushing Uke with your outside arm, keeping the arm extended, but not locked. The second form steps in the same way off the line to stop the strike with the inside arm, then steps in with an upward/down wave motion.
