Kuji goshin ho3/28/2023 Joshi goshinhō was completed in 1943 and is usually attributed to a team of eight to ten people.Ĭonclusions: Joshi goshinhō is still an official kata of Kōdōkan despite it being often omitted from recent kata listings. The creation of Joshi goshinhō was ordered by Nangō Jirō, a nephew of Kanō who led the Kōdōkan after Kanō Jigorō’s death in 1938. This shift seems to have occurred since the 1990s despite no statement of obsoletion or removal from the Kōdōkan teaching curriculum being known. Results: Recent overviews of Kōdōkan kata frequently omit Joshi goshinhō. Material and methods: To achieve this, we offer a careful critical analysis of the available literature and rare source material on this kata. And study aim: The purpose of the present paper is to provide a comprehensive and critical review of Joshi goshinhō (“Self-defense methods for Women”), the now reclusive ‘ninth’ kata of Kōdōkan jūdō, once part of the standard women’s jūdō curriculum in Japan.
