As far as pictures of the wrist locks.. hmm.. I have some basic yawara stuff written by a ju-ju instructor on another computer I'll see if I can dredge that up. However, the locks was the one thing that I don't have. We don't really write stuff down in my art, I'm sure you can imagine why. Let me see if I can do a better illustration for you... if this doesn't work, lemme know, I'll see what I cna find.

take your stick and place both hands on it at either end in an over hand fashion, leaving some room in the middle. Then, place the middle of the stick over the bony part of your Uke's wrist. Lastly, your thumbs go on the bottom of the wrist for support. Roll your fingers down, turning the stick into the wrist much like a rolling pin. If you're doing this right, it'll be hard for your uke to take the pain for very long. Try it on someone, it's hard to imagine in your head. Let me know if this helps.
