Thank you for the comments. As a beginner, I don't think so because if the person is close enough to grab then you have let them invade your space so to speak and so the class might be inevitable and that is why the atemi is necessary. At a higher level you would be moving in well before they established the grab and thus there would be little to no clash. Hope that helps.
Thank you for sharing Sensei 😊

Amazing...super well done. Budo 10000%
Is there a way to avoid clashing opponent at the first move?
