As Uke pushes Tori, Tori applies Uki-goshi and continues into Kuzure-kesa-gatame. It is important to avoid chest-to-chest hard contact or shoulder-to-chest clash that can often result if Tori loses his balance after throwing landing heavily on Uke. Continuity is achieved by Tori supporting Ukes arm upwards on contact with tatami opening up a space for his own entry. Taking his weight slowly on his knee whilst settling alongside Uke to apply Kuzure-kesa-gatame.
