Khutulun: The Unbeatable Warrior Princess of the Mongol Empire
Khutulun, a formidable warrior and the daughter of Kaidu, a descendant of the legendary Genghis Khan, made a name for herself in the Mongol Empire through her unparalleled wrestling skills.
She set a unique condition for any man who sought her hand in marriage: they must first defeat her in a wrestling match.
Khutulun remained undefeated throughout her life, and her prowess in the wrestling arena allowed her to amass an impressive herd of thousands of horses, which she acquired through the wagers she placed on her own victories.

Our latest article covers the art of throwing techniques in traditional karate-do. Derived from Japanese martial arts traditions, these techniques emphasize precise timing and leverage to destabilise opponents with minimal effort (Kazushi). We have also embedded within the article video demos of ten throwing drills to better illustrate nage in motion. Goju katas where some of the nage waza come from have also been identified in the demos. This is a must-read for all PRO members in our Library Central.Not a member of the GOJU RYU PORTAL?
