I've been watching videos of Kenji Shoudai at this years AJKC and I've been trying out a technique he uses. Seme with your left fist to the centre line, if your opponents kensen follows it then take morote kote stepping though with your right foot. This seems to work really well and is something I'm definitely going to practise.

    You mean that if the opponent return his kensen to the centre ? like returning to chudan from seigan ?

    Sorry, was that not clear? Yeah, their Kensen start point to the right (i.e. at your left fist) and follows the left fist the centreline as you seme. Then have a small open line down to their right kote. There's some technical bits I'm leaving out to do with the action of the right hand, but that's the basic form.
