My sensei here in Brazil used to practice in the metropolitan police of Kyoto. He told us that yes, it's valid to trip the legs of the opponent in tai-atari. Also, they fight for one point only, not two out of three. One strike meant death to the samurai, he says.

When outside Japan, he abids by the rules of the federation, but in Japan he abids by the police rules

Best,
