  Abstract:  The O-Soto-Gari technique is part of the Ashi waza (foot art) techniques. It is one of high performance techniques. Since the time of Jigoro Kano (1860-1938) O-Soto-Gari has known various forms of approach. Most experts think that this technique comes from the schools of jujutsu and that it was taken over by Kano due to its efficiency. Our studies in the history of martial arts have shown that this technique was in fact in Daito-ryu school as the Tenchi-nage (throwing Heaven and Earth). Today O-Soto-gari is present in the techniques required for the yellow belt (5 Kyu), even if it is dificult to approach. Today we know two major forms of O-Soto-Gari, japonese and koreen.
