Koshiki-no-Kata (English ver.)

“Koshiki-no-Kata” has its origin in Kito School of Jujutsu which Kano Jigoro Shihan learned before he established Kodokan Judo. He has acknowledged this Kata to be highly effective and appropriate in terms of its technical traits, theoretical values as Kata and means for mental and spiritual training and established it, as almost as it had originally been, as Kodokan’s “Koshiki-no-Kata.”
This Kata is based on throwing techniques of Yoroi-Kumiuchi in which Samurai warriors of those days used to fight against each other while wearing armor and composed of 14 sets of Omote-no-Kata and 7 sets of Ura-no-Kata. Omote-no-Kata represents tranquility of mind and solemn elegance of every aspect of its behavior and conducts with accuracy of every movement in offense and defense, while Ura-no-Kata demonstrates agile and bold motions, and both exhibit the reasoning and theory of offense and defense in Judo as profound Kata.
