I think you mean KOKYU "NAGE" here and not "KOKYU HO".
No I'm quite sure she ment kokyoho. Kokyoho is the name of at least two exercises (rather then techniques I guess), morotedori kokyoho and suwariwaza kokyoho (kokyo dosa in some places), done in most dojos (in Sweden) every class, the first one of which looks like (or is) sokumen iriminage done from morotedori. Perhaps it is a subgroup of the group of techniques called kokyonage, but that version of irimimovement and throwing with opposit hand as normally done in iriminage is generally refered to as kokyoho and not sokumen irimi (in Sweden). FWIW if a throw doesn't have a formal name (like kotegaeshi) it's generally called kokyonage were I come from.
