So, i've got like 10 goblins ready to be slaughtered by my brave dwarfs... But i don't really get how to remove their weapons and release them.

Please advice...

From the Wiki:
If they're caged and placed in an animal stockpile:
d-b-c (select cages) to remove items.
Press z to go into the status screen, go to Stocks, and unforbid all the weapons. Mark them for dumping.

This way they keep their armor for even better training.

but how does one release someone from a cage without using a mechanism? (lever, etc)

Accidentally. =/

Or throwing them into a pit, but if you try that see my first comment.

What I've been doing so far is creating a small arena, and digging a channel one z level above it. Under zones (i) I set the channel as a pit, and there's  a menu of what caged creatures you want to throw in the pit. Throw them one at a time. Do not do this with goblin thieves, in my experience they always escape. I've never had problems having some random dwarf drag a goblin spearman etc. around and toss him in.
