Judo - Koshiki no Kata Demonstration - Kagamibiraki 2019

Channel subscription: / @seidobudostudies
Judo Demonstration during the 2019 Kagamibiraki & Budo Hajime, at the Nippon Budokan.
Demonstration by Nakanishi Hidetoshi, 8th Dan, and Matsumoto Yuji, 7th Dan.
The Koshiki-No-Kata stems from the ancient Kitoryu Jujutsu Kobudo, and is mainly composed of techniques used to throw Samurai warriors while wearing the traditional armor, the Yoroi. The Kata consists of a Omote and a Ura form.
The Omote form is executed with a calm and solemn heart, and every movement of attack and defense has to be accurate and precise.
The Ura form teaches quick and resolute motions, principles that are also used for attack and defense in Judo.
The Kagamibiraki is a traditional ceremony which translates to "opening the mirror" (symbolically).
Taking its roots in the Shogunate, it is strongly linked to Budo practice and it is natural that the Budo Hajime (first practice of the year) is celebrated at the same time.
At the Nippon Budokan, the ceremony is held at the beginning of January and consists in:
- The Kagamibiraki, with a historical reconstruction (in armor).
- Budo Demonstrations (by the 9 "official Budo").
- Budo Hajime (first practice of the year, all practitioners present can practice).
- The Oshiruko kai. “Oshiruko” is a traditional and popular sweet azuki bean paste soup with mochi (which symbolize the sharing of the mochi that was broken before during the ceremony).

Maravilloso!!! 🤯

[@navigatingel6104]

I think it would be nice if they did this in Full armor to enhance the esthetic

[@seidobudostudies]

They used to do it, but it led to some accidents and injuries so the Kodokan decided that the armor was no longer needed for demonstration.

[@joa8593]

Uke is young! Do they always do Koshiki-no-kata instead of Itsutsu-no-kata or any of the other kata?

[@seidobudostudies]

At the kagamibiraki, yes. They stay on topic in some ways.
