I cannot believe Jedimc hasnt posted in here, he has been doing Aikido way longer than me I have been doing it for only a couple of weeks, but mine would be aihanmi- iriminage. oh, do you guys have a video clip of this "O soto gari" being done, I havent seen it yet and it seems like everybody likes it.

Here's your Osoto gari, and all of the other judo throws for that matter.

Me? I like the headlock hip throw and the ippon seinoge.

TKDguy I didnt post in this because I thought it was for Judo throws, anyway my favourite throw is a kotegaeshi.

Is there a site for animations of Aikido throws? My respect for Aikido increased dramatically after I actually learned more about it. You Akidokas (can I say that?) actually share many techniques with Combat Hapkido practitioners, with minor differences.

Yes you can call us Aikidoka, this site has animations

For the record, I don't like it- at least not the traditional version. It's too straight forward and very telegraphic. There are some variations of it that I do like, however.

Ok - I am trying to get the japanese names together to answer this.

I have a few faves:

Kata Guruma / Shoulder Wheel

http://www.judoinfo.com/images/animations/blue/kataguruma.htm

Harai Goshi / Sweeping Hip(or Sweeping loin)

[urlhttp://https://www.judoinfo.com/images/animations/blue/haraigoshi.htm[/url]

Hane Goshi / Spring Hip

http://www.judoinfo.com/images/animations/blue/hanegoshi.htm

Ippon Seonagi / One Arm Shoulder Trow

http://www.judoinfo.com/images/animations/blue/ipponseoi.htm

and finally:

Tawara Gaeshi / Rice Bail - although at Ju Jitsu we do this move slightly differently to the move shown in the link here. We do this as an offensive move almost - with the head hooked!

Only thing is - looking through throws reminds me that I just love throwing FULL STOP!

From judo, its o guruma.

From daito ryu, its shomoku.
