The Kime-no-kata consists of twenty techniques for attack and defense. Eight are IDORI techniques that are employed while seated, and twelve are TACHIAI that are used when both people are standing.

The Kime-no-kata were established in 1888 to help master the most effective techniques for serious competition. By studying the kata, it is possible to understand and master the theoretical basis for attack and defense, thereby allowing one to move quickly and apply the most appropriate techniques to control the opponent.

The Kime-no-kata include ATEMI-WAZA, which are not used in Randori. Regular practice is essential in order to understand the key locations and apply the atemi sharply.
