The Go no kata is a method that Jigoro Kano recommended and taught in the early days of Kodokan Judo. Today it is rarely practiced, but studying this kata carefully offers numerous benefits for judoka of all levels. Furthermore, it can be practiced anywhere and in any clothing, as there are no falls and the kumikata can be adapted to be performed without grabbing clothing. After rigorous study, we can affirm that we have provided all the necessary technical details to practice it as it was done in Japan over 100 years ago. We recommend that all judoka who love tradition study the Go no kata; it will bring them enormous benefits, not only in the study of Nage-Kuzushi-Shintai but also in a better understanding of classical judo.
