I don't know it is correct forum for my question... and this is my first post here.

What does a phrase "No Kata" in kata's names means?
For example "Ten No Kata", "Uke No Kata"...

BTW, what about "No Kon" in "Sakugawa no kon" for example?

Write in simply English, please.

The particle "no" means "of", or "belonging to".

In the examples you give, it would mean "The Kata of Ten" or "the Kata of Uke".
