Ten-no-Kata (or 天の形 in Japanese) means ‘heavenly form’. In 1935, this training kata of Shotokan Karatedo was published in Gichin Funakoshi’s “Master Text” titled Karate-Dō Kyōhan, and it was co-developed by his son Yoshitaka Funakoshi (1906 - 1945), just as the Taikyoku kata. The kata itself consists of two parts: the Omote form, which is practiced by the performer alone, and the Ura form, which is to be trained with a partner (in Ippon-Kumite). The kata thus illustrates the original premise of Karatedo: Ikken Hissatsu, that is, to annihilate at one blow (enabling one to face more than one opponent simultaneously). In this video (recorded on 15 July 2024), budoka Johan Oldenkamp, a former national runner-up from the Netherlands, performs the Omote form of this training kata of Shotokan ( 松濤館 ) Karatedo ( 空手道 ).
