Re: Does Aikido have leg throws,trips&traps?
yep, works like a charm.
In one aikido style of koshi where you do this, you can also enter with your body, hips perpendicular to the ground, uke stretched to off balance (the controling hand held high) then use the power of turning the hip parallel to ground and cutting with the hand to throw. Tends to take folks by surprise a lot...especially when combined with a body change, or shooting the leg in an unexpected angle.
