 The
student bearing the jo (shidachi) first performs a series
of basic striking movements (called kihon) alone, or sotai
dosa, then executes them with a partner (uchidachi) who wields
a bokken, called tandoku dosa. Lastly, both shidachi and uchidachi
work together in learning the twelve kata forms, the seitei
no kata.
