Shomenuchi: Overhead strike to the top of the head
Ikkyo: First form, "Arm pin"
In Shomenuchi Ikkyo, Nage uses Uke's arm to control his center. It's important to realize the focus is not on trying to manipulate the arm but rather on attacking Uke's center from the very beginning throughout the pin.
In Omote Waza, Nage meets Uke's attack on the way up, then redirects it towards Uke's center while turning the hips to take Uke off balance.
- In the pin, keep a straight back, have your hands extended but not locked, and press your inner knee against Uke's rib cage.
