Re: photo (KI) by Mazhar Dardari Sensei
I think that the photos show kokkyu-dosa (or kokkyu-ho), which is normally performed in suwari-wasa from ryote-dory. The sequence is missing the initial frame showing the beginning - both in seiza, uke gripping both wrists. The photos demonstrate strong kokkyu generated by the nage, which uke cannot resist (and maintain the grip) while remaining in sitting position. As his body raises, so does the centre of balance which makes the throw possible.
