I was going through some old video tapes a few days ago and found one on a Japanese tv show about budo where these young people go and do little expose’ on various different ryu including Daito ryu, Taisha ryu, Negishi ryu, and Katori ryu. During the Katori ryu portion Otake sensei demonstrates a couple of the yawara techniques. Vary basic stuff from wrist grab and from an ear or hair grab. If I recall correctly they are probably the same ones depicted in Don Draeger’s book.
