The aim of this course is to introduce players to Itsutsu-No-Kata (Forms of Five). This kata is a symbolic and conceptual form that expresses fundamental principles of Judo through movement, balance, and the efficient use of force.
Itsutsu-No-Kata consists of five forms, each representing natural and universal principles such as direct force, circular motion, balance, and the application of energy. The course provides an excellent opportunity to deepen understanding of Judo philosophy, body mechanics, and the abstract principles that underpin all throwing techniques.

Judo for All: Supporting the Dementia Community - 20 May 26 - Online (MS Teams)
2026-05-20 18:00 - 19:30 | MS Teams
Judo is more than just a sport; it is a community built on the principles of Mutual Welfare and Benefit. This session is designed to empower judo clubs to open their doors wider, ensuring that players living with dementia can stay on the mat and remain active in the sport they love.
We will begin by demystifying dementia, moving beyond memory loss to understand how the condition impacts sensory perception, balance, and communication. You’ll gain a foundational understanding of the common challenges faced by those living with and affected by dementia.
The core of our workshop focuses on practical, low-cost adaptations. From simplifying instructions and managing the “sensory environment” of a noisy dojo to providing better signage and supporting caregivers, you will learn that small changes make a monumental difference.
By the end of this session, your club will have the tools to foster a “Dementia Friendly” environment where every judoka feels safe, valued, and capable. Let’s work together to ensure that a diagnosis never means the end of a judo journey.
Date: Wednesday 20th May 2026 – 18:00-19:30
Cost: £0 – Free

2026-08-01 10:00 - 16:00 | Pinewood Judo Club, Pinewood Leisure Centre Old Wokingham Road, Wokingham, Berkshire, RG40 3AQ, England
The aim of this course is to introduce players to Kime-no-kata (the kata of real fighting). This kata consists of 15 techniques and it teaches the theory of the skilful application of flexibility in order to defeat strength and it was developed to study how to lift up a body and understand the ways of different fighting methods. Ju no Kata was developed at the Kodokan in 1887.
This is a British Judo Association Licensed Coach Education Course which is worth one credit. All applicants must hold a current FULL BJA (or affiliated body) membership & be a minimum grade of 3rd Kyu (Green Belt). Ideally you would attend with a partner to practice with, however we will endeavour to pair up individuals who attend the course.
Nage-no-kata is one of the two randori-no-kata free practice forms of Kodokan Judo. It is intended as an illustration of the various concepts of nage-waza (throwing techniques) that exist in judo. The kata is composed of 3 techniques each from the five classifications of throws in judo. Each of these 15 techniques is performed twice in the specified order, both right and left handed.

Te-waza (hand techniques)
Koshi-waza (hip techniques)
Ashi-waza (foot techniques)
Ma-sutemi-waza (rear sacrifice techniques)
Yoko-sutemi-waza (side sacrifice techniques)
