is one of the traditional forty throws of Judo as developed by Jigoro Kano. Sasae tsurikomi ashi belongs to the first group, Dai Ikkyo, of the traditional throwing list, Gokyo-no-waza of Kodokan Judo. It is also part of the current 67 throws of Kodokan Judo. It is classified as a foot technique (ashi-waza)
To perform this throw, the practitioner first begins pulling their opponent towards themselves in a circular motion (towards either the left or the right side) using a grip either on the opponent's sleeve or lapel. The attacker then uses the bottom of their foot to block the opponent's leg at the shin to prevent them from stepping forward. Having been pulled forward and made unable to take a step to support their weight, the opponent falls forward.
The technique is often referred to simply as "sasae".
