Ryokata Dori Aiki Otoshi

Aiki Otoshi is a technique little practiced in Aikido Dojos, however, it is one of the only ones that carries the expression "Aiki" in its name. Very similar to wrestling and judo morote-gari moves (although its basic form in Aikido is reversed from the form applied in Judo). In my opinion, it is a very interesting technique to practice, either because of its efficiency or because of the countless possibilities it has for variations. In the video, I explore what in my view is the simplest way to apply this technique, as well as some possible variations I use in my practice.
