i have been taught that a potential attacker landing on the inside would have a golden oppurtunity to attack your groin so the uke should land to the outside of your leading leg.

you say
"When the Student tried to take me down when doing iriminage the way in which he said I was doing it wrong, he tried to take me down but couldn't because my posture was as it should be."

i had this problem and my sensei broke my movements down and it appears i was not braking the balance enough with the neck control slighly leaned more into my chest as i move forward this problem went away.
