Kitani dojo

    Keywords: Culture & History

The celebrated go training school run by Kitani Minoru and his wife. It produced a very large crop of pro players, including Otake Hideo, Ishida Yoshio, Kato Masao, Takemiya Masaki, Cho Chikun and Kobayashi Koichi.


A listing in the 1996 Kido Yearbook of Kitani's pupils gives them in this order (by rank, then seniority, it seems):


The number of pupils attending the school rose to over 60 (so that there are 20 others not on the list, presumably since they didn't become pros). In practical terms the school was organised by Kitani Miharu.
