SUMMARY:Nage no Kata Course (October 2026)
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”760321″] \nDevelop your technique. Deepen your judo. \nAre you interested in improving your technical knowledge and ability? Would you like to better understand how judo techniques truly work — and how to apply them more effectively? \nKata has a fundamental place in every judoka’s development and sits at the heart of Jigoro Kano’s teachings. Through kata\, judoka refine their technical understanding\, accuracy\, balance\, and control. This learning is then reinforced through randori (non-contest training)\, where skills are challenged\, tested\, and brought to life. \nExpert Course Leaders\nOver the past decade\, we have been delighted to work with David Gibson (5th Dan) and Colin Dunlop (4th Dan) — both BJA Kata Examiners and multiple medallists at the British Kata Championships. \nDavid and Colin will lead this Nage-no-Kata course\, guiding participants through each set with clarity and insight\, leaving you with a deeper understanding of: \n\n\nBreaking balance (kuzushi) \n\n\nCorrect positioning and movement \n\n\nControl\, timing\, and technical precision \n\n\nHow kata directly improves your overall judo \n\n\nWho is this course for?\n\n\nOpen to judoka aged 13 years and over \n\n\nSuitable for all grades with an interest in self-improvement \n\n\nIdeal for grading preparation\, coach development\, and technical refinement \n\n\nParticipants are encouraged to bring a partner they are comfortable working with to gain the most from the course. Where possible\, a white judogi is preferred for kata practice. \nQualifications & Progression\nOpportunities to obtain a kata qualification can be discussed during the course. Kata examinations are typically held at National Gradings\, and the learning from this course directly supports Dan grade theory requirements. \nWhile suitable for coach revalidation\, this course is not just for coaches — it is for any judoka committed to developing their judo. \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_button border_width=”0″ link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fjudoscotland.justgo.com%2FWorkbench%2Fi%2Fr%2FEventsAndBookings%2Fbooking-details%2FBE8A9DE65F7AA5E9A669C9D94656AE016FA7D940″ uncode_shortcode_id=”145691″]Book Your Space Here[/vc_button][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:Katame no Kata Course (October 2026)
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”641662″]Interested in improving your technical knowledge and ability\, would you like to know more about developing your own judo. Kata has a fundamental place in all judokas development and is an integral part of Kano’s teachings\, kata will hone your technical understanding and application of the technique whilst the randori (not contest training) will challenge and test the skill you have learned. \nOur Katame no Kata course will be run by David Gibson 5th Dan & Colin Dunlop 4th Dan who are BJA Kata Examiners and are medallists from the 2023 & 2024 British Kata Championships.

This year\, we’re thrilled to welcome two Georgian greats\, judoka who have helped shape the modern era of international judo.  \nWith the British Veterans Championship taking place in Paisley just down the road that same weekend\, we’re excited to once again make the greater Glasgow area a destination for Judo.  \nTato Grigalashvili — Triple World Champion\, Olympic Medallist  \nTato Grigalashvili has become one of the defining competitors of the –81kg category. Known for his dynamic gripping\, powerful throwing style\, and exceptional technical clarity\, he has dominated the world stage with:  \n\nThree consecutive World Championship titles  \n\n\nMultiple European gold medals \n\n\nOlympic silver at Paris 2024 \n\n\nA reputation as one of the most complete judoka in the sport today \n\nTato made a huge impact at The Gathering 2025\, with attendees praising his detaildriven delivery and the time he dedicated to every individual on the mat. Feedback included:  \n“His attention to detail\, his enthusiasm and the amount of time he gave to everybody!”  \n“Main takeaway was the Georgian grip\, taught me some things I had been wondering about and unable to find online\, was very thorough in his explanations and genuinely cared that we learnt from him.”  \n“The detail in his demonstrations was superb. He gave a brilliant insight into the Georgian style of Judo through the techniques he demonstrated.”  \nWe are thrilled to welcome him back.  \nLasha Shavdatuashvili — Triple Olympic Medallist\, World Champion  \nA true legend of the sport\, Lasha Shavdatuashvili is one of Georgia’s most decorated judoka. With medals at three Olympic Games (gold in 2012\, bronze in 2016\, silver in 2020) and a World Championship title in 2021\, Lasha’s career reflects extraordinary longevity\, adaptability\, and tactical intelligence.  \nCompeting across both –66kg and –73kg categories\, he remains one of the most respected and influential athletes on the world stage.
