You are correct. Kote hineri is the shodokan (or Tomiki) aikido term for sankyo, and kote mawashi is their term for nikkyo. And in fact yonkyo (a.k.a. tekubi osae, yonkajo) is actually a rotational lock like sankyo, although many overemphasize the pain compliance aspects of it. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 64.191.131.194 (talk) 23:04:20, August 19, 2007 (UTC)


While i do believe it is useful to name the japanese names for various techniques, I'm not sure they are mentioned accurately.

The kote mawashi described herein this article is more like kote hineri, and the technique an aikidoka would call Nikyo would probably be called kote mawashi.

Perhaps a yudansha for judo or aikido or jujutsu could clarify this article or rebunk my comment?

[edit] Terms

Terms like ikkyo,nikkyo,sankyo ("first, second, third teachings") etc are used accurately here to describe specific manipulations as they are found in aikido however this is not true of Daito-ryu aikijujutsu where the terms ikkajo and nikkajo are used instead and denote portions of the curriculum rather than these specific manipulations. I removed references to them as aikijujutsu terms.--Mateo2006 13:34, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Illustration/Photo

How about posting a illustration of "rotational wristlock/sankyo" and "pronating wristlock/gokyo" from the same source for consistancy?--Mateo2006 13:44, 27 May 2007 (UTC)


I would argue that a significant amount of pain is felt if Kote-Gaeshi is applied correctly in that it will break uke's wrist, elbow and shoulder. —Preceding unsigned comment added by PRehse (talk • contribs)


[edit] Pronating wristlock

I see that someone has changed the name of the 'aikido version' of the pronating wristlock to sankyo. If the pronating wristlock described is sankyo it does not conform to the lock in the first photo on the page.

I believe sankyo is what is being referred to as the rotational wristlock in this article. --Mateo2006 02:30, 11 August 2007 (UTC)
