A throw (in Budo referred to as ''nage-waza'', 投げ技, "throwing technique") is a Martial Arts and Grappling term for a technique that involves off-balancing or lifting an opponent, and tossing them to the ground, usually involving a rotating motion (compare with Takedown ). Typically the combatant performing the throw disconnects with the opponent, and ends balanced and on the feet. Throws can however also be followed into a Top Position , in which case the person executing the throw does not disconnect with the opponent. Certain throwing techniques called '''sacrifice throws''' (''sutemi-waza'', 捨身技, "sacrifice technique") involve putting oneself in a disadvantagous position, such as on the ground, to execute a throw.
