In this research, we devise kata (or a set of forms), which includes basic throws, as a teaching material for a judo class in junior high school in order to teach judo effectively and safely.
The kata we devised consists of three sets, and each set comprises three throws:
First set-1 Hiza-guruma 2 Sasae-tsurikomi-ashi 3 O-goshi
Second set-1 Kouchi-gari, 2 Tai-otoshi, 3 Osoto-gari
Third set-1 Ouchi-gari, 2 Tsurikomi-goshi, 3 Seoi-nage
In the kata, right-hand kumikata and right-side throws are used, and the kata sets are taught in numerical order from the first set to the third set. The throws in the kata are arranged according to the difficulty of the throws, the ease of the breakfall techniques, and the curriculum guideline issued by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science, and Technology. However, how to arrange the throws in the kata, how to move (tai sabaki: body-management) when throwing and getting thrown are one of illustrations and should be further improved.
