We will be adding content and resources constantly
over the coming months.
Judo skills
are complex and are attainable only through diligent
and lasting practice.
Kata as one
of the forms of Judo training best serves this purpose.
Kata is
a set of pre-arranged techniques, attacks, defences
and other movements displaying the whole range of
Judo skills.
Kata offers
the possibility to practice these techniques slowly
or quickly, with conscious control over every theoretical
detail, without undue physical strain.
Apart from
developing skill, Kata practice serves as a means
of physical & mental education, promotes and instills
a sense of equilibrium and self-confidence.
It is also an excellent recreational activity.
