'''Kata Guruma''' is one of the traditional forty [[Throw (grappling)|throws]] of [[Judo]] as developed by [[Jigoro Kano]], and is said to have been invented by Kano{{Fact|date=June 2007}}. Kata Guruma belongs to the third group, [[Judo Lists#Sankyo|Sankyo]], of the traditional throwing list, Gokyo (no waza) [http://www.judoinfo.com/gokyo1.htm], of Kodokan Judo. It is also part of the current 67 Throws of Kodokan Judo. [http://www.judoinfo.com/gokyo.htm] Because the technique is not a sweep nor a trip and requires [[tori]] to grab [[uke (martial arts)|uke]] into a carry, it is categorized as a hand technique, [[Judo technique|Te-Waza]].
