Any technique in Aikido has two aspects: Ura wasa and omote wasa.
Ura represents the reverse, the back, the hidden side of things.
Omote represents the front, the surface, exterior, the apparent side of things.
In everything there is Ura and Omote. Man himself has a front and back.

We were doing sankyo immobilizations tonight at aikido. I LOVE immobilizations. There is something very empowering about being able to pin someone twice the size of you to the floor.
