Description of Yokuto kata

Uke grabs tori with a middle Judo hold. Tori, with his left hand, grabs uke's right hand and hits with a right Boshi ken behind the ear or below the jaw, and in the same time kicking with a right Kin Geri to uke's groin. Tori then hits uke under the chin with his left hand while switching his stance, so that his left leg is the front leg.
