GO-KYO
PRINCIPLES
OF JUDO
by Ant on Geesink
When Dr. Jigoro Kano founded his
system of Judo at the end of the last
century, be estabHshed the classifica•
tion of the then developed throws into
Five Series-the famous Go-Kyo.
These are the basis of the classical
Judo technique, and on them the
champions build up their repertoire.
In this book Anton Geesink, who has
achieved the highest honours in
championship Judo, presents the Five
cries to the West.
H e is weU qualified for the task,
ror he not only studied these tech•
niques under the leading ,Japanese
reachers in the main Japanese training•
halls. but be has repeatedly demon-
trated his mastery of many of them
in contest against the top-level
Japanese contest experts themselves.
He has gone further. Dr. Kano
himself said that the development of
technique in Judo is limitless, and
Geesiok is one of the few Westerners
to develop special skill in certain
variations which are gradually tending
to e new throws in their own
right. It is his view that the time will
come when these new techniques wiiJ be
formed into a new Series-the ixth
. eries.
In this book he gives an autborita•
tive account of the present Five cries,
which must be the basis of the
technique of every aspiring J udo
student.
