Judo Demonstration during the 2019 Kagamibiraki & Budo Hajime, at the Nippon Budokan.

Demo by Nakanishi Hidetoshi, 8th Dan, as well as Matsumoto Yuji, 7th Dan.

The Koshiki-No-Kata originates from the ancient Kitoryu Jujutsu Kobudo, and also is mostly composed of methods made use of to throw Samurai warriors while using the typical shield, the Yoroi. The Kata is composed of a Omote as well as a Ura kind.
The Omote kind is implemented with a calmness and also austere heart, and also every movement of strike and also defense has to be specific and accurate.
The Ura kind teaches quick as well as resolute motions, concepts that are likewise used for attack and also protection in Judo.

The Kagamibiraki is a standard event which translates to “opening up the mirror” (symbolically).
Taking its origins in the Shogunate, it is strongly connected to Budo practice and it is natural that the Budo Hajime (very first technique of the year) is celebrated at the exact same time.

At the Nippon Budokan, the event is held at the beginning of January and also is composed in:
– The Kagamibiraki, with a historic reconstruction (in armor).
– Budo Demonstrations (by the 9 “main Budo”).
– Budo Hajime (first practice of the year, all practitioners present can practice).
– The Oshiruko kai. “Oshiruko” is a conventional and also prominent sweet azuki bean paste soup with mochi (which represent the sharing of the mochi that was broken before throughout the event).
