@@user-fx9rh6gp9n I think it’s good that Japanese culture is spreading but yeah I agree there’s always a reference somewhere lol
Edit: Demon Slayer Training
Whenever I'm practicing, I always come back to this video. I find a lot of things I'm doing are actually wrong and I'm able to fix them before it's to late. I'm so thankful for this video.
Thank you for your comment, Fuzzyninja649!😀 it is great to know people like you out there! I have tons of videos here but also have more info at kendo-guide.com. Hope you get a lot of info you need! 😀👍 Make sure to ask questions when you have!

This video literally improved my axe chopping ability. My blade bites a full 1/2 inch deeper into wood when I use my shoulders to snap the blade forward instead of my wrists. The way you explained this really makes it obvious: use the large muscles in the shoulder instead of the arms. Thanks for the lesson!
Great!
Northern Ontario backwoods boy. Yep couldn't agree more!!
Hayashida in Seven Samurai was one hell of a swordsman who turned into one hell of a woodchopper, if I remember right.
@@alexanonimo6876 woodsman sing cherishing songs happy simple songs
You're welcome! Glad that it was helpful!
is there any videos that soley work on the first kendo kata as I'm learning it at the moment for my first grading
I know this is 8 years too late, but...
Why didn't you pin this comment so everyone can see it?
Oooh, look what a gem I managed to find...
Thank you for your comment, Coronal!😀 I think you are giving me a compliment⁉
If you like what you saw, I have tons of videos here but also have more info at kendo-guide.com. Hope you get a lot of info you need! 😀👍 And subscribe to my channel if you haven't! Thanks for your support! 🙏
@@KendoGuide I have a question. Can I used a dumbbell for this?
When u wanna do kendo but u can't find a class also when your mom won't pay for it;-;
Sorry to hear that. You do need permission from your parents. Have you contacted to a dojo or federation near where you live?
jade c I bought a brokken from Japan and practice it at home in my back garden, you can watch these videos to help you get jist
jade c There isn't a dojo of kenjutsu where I live. Good luck bro and train at home. I will begin today ( IN my room )
Get a job as soon as you can. It's liberating
Are there any dojos outside of Japan?
If not I already made a training Katana made of bamboo.... I'll just train at home XD
Finally not some stupid american "ULTIMATE KATANA MASTER DESTRUCTION" wannabe on youtube who all western societies think is high and mighty, this man right here is the example to follow when practicing kendo
Thank you for your kind words! I will keep providing and sharing what I know and learned from senseis!
Im not asian at all, im latin and filipino
Christianag101 u r half asian
It has to be Japanese bcos it's in their blood.. an even American who were raised (note: not born) in Japan admitted than he cannot still understand the art of Japanese swords though he has been practicing Kendo for decades.
TJay Art not true sir.
They be using katana replicas whilst me here using sticks at home
Thanks for your comment! It's OK to stick to the sticks 👍
@@KendoGuide yes and I have been practicing and increasing the weight of each one so I can handle it better I am going to try and beg my mom for one so I can practice I was even able to cut several fruits in the air from my training!
They used sticks for thousands of years to practice, welcome to real life.
@@morgeenee811 No, they use bamboo swords called shinai and what sensei imafuji is carrying is an iaido. I believe they don't use a blunt katana for kendo training. iaido for the art of iai.
Gotta love this guy, It makes me smile everytime he says, "but we don't do that in Kendo"
I just ordered a Katana and I want to know how to properly use it. This man has taught me more in the first 2 minutes than I could watching anime. 😂
No shit man. You're not gonna learn shit from anime.
@@nelsonc4868 no need to be rude man he's just playing around
"long live the way of the sword""
I bought a bokken when I was about 14 and it has just been sitting there, I now bought a real Katana the other day but I know I need to practice with my wooden stick first.
Be careful with the real sword. If you don't know how to use it, you are going to hurt yourself and others.
Kendo Guide appreciate your kind and honest teaching, these is literally no critiques I can make towards your humble teaching
You can also invest in a aito to practice with. A shinken or sharpened steel sword whether it be a katana or wakisaki etc are very dangerous. Practice a little each day, it is very rewarding and meditative as well.
I'm watching this because there might be an apocalypse
O U right
I'm prepared!
Im here because i want to learn how to defend my loved ones in style
@@jackcomet2756 Dose your city have kenjitsu? Kenjitsu is more of combat with the purpose of killing your opponent then kendo. I'm currently studying the Katori shinto ryu and Iaido.
A vaccine apocalypse, with vaccine zombies. (I'm not joking.)
The one thing I've learned in this art is the basics will always be the best to master in order to have discipline
I agree!
does the crooked outlet annoy anyone else
Fernando deVargas Thanks, now I can’t unsee it 😅
lmao
It's because it isn't real. Think about it, who needs an outlet in a dojo? It's a secret doorway to hide the weapons.
@@davidhokett yeah pretty good answer too me
Holy shit, OP was 5 years ago
Thanks to you i started practicing sports in general, i had real problems with my breathing in the past and when i started kendo at home it gave me a goal to start working on my breathing and after that i started jogging and swimming all this was thanks to kendo, i'll always be thankful to this video for making me care not only about kendo but about my health in general... it's been a year since i started and met some really cool people, it's just life changing.
Wow! Thank you! Great to hear that kendo helped you with your health! I went over how to breathe with my members at Patreon this morning. I am not instructing. I am relearning things by having being asked questions! Love it!
I'm scared that this sword will end my whole career
I'm about to start practicing Kendo. I know next to nothing so it's really comforting to find such a helpful guide to know what I'm getting into, and hopefully to use as a future reference. Yoroshiku onegaishimasu 🙇🏻♀️

+onizuka2222 Thank you!
Learning Kendo at home is so relaxing for me, It feels so amazing to do it knowing that I'm doing the right thing. Thank you for making this video and helping us learn!
Who knew this was going to be super relevant 8 years later?
Yeah but when does he start slicing water jugs?
LOL! I've seen one of those videos!
I've seen a guy cut it exactly horizontal so no water spills onto the floor, but there's still surface tension in the water on the edge of the jug.
I recently found out of these arts (kendo and iaido) and I'm just in love, I'm still trying to learn more about the two of them so I can hopefully start practicing them one day, very informative video!
I recently started practicing with your videos for rehab (I sprained my neck and dislocated my shoulder lifting heavy stuff). I do it with a katana copy and I must say it is a wonderful discipline to practice, thanks a lot.

I'm just getting back into sword arts after a very long hiatus and I'm glad I found this. One might have to sift through a lot of faulty information and instruction on the internet; like in days past where all we really had were martial arts magazines. But, these kinds of gems make the pursuit worth it! I'm saving this one.
I'm using these videos to learn kendo and I've learnt so much and am loving kendo
Just discovered this, very helpful for someone looking to maybe get back into Kendo. Thanks for posting
Watching in 2018, this by far the best katana lesson I’ve found so far.
Thank you!
5:58 is very important.
One of the first things i was taught in aikido.
Great video imafuji sensei , i hope you are well.
where quarantine has brought me after being obsessed with kendo:
Thank you for your comment, potato!😀 Hope you liked the video. The pandemic really is a challenge for us. But also because of the situation, there are things that we can do more. I have talked to some people that I can't usually talk. That is a big positive thing out of this stressful situation. ❤👍

Thank you for continuing recording videos. I’m going to watch and practice them. Really thank you!
I started back training today. I am very grateful for this video. Excellent tuition. Thank you.
I really enjoyed watching this, you're a very good Sensei! The pace of the lesson is very helpful. Thank you
I'ma just make myself a Samurai this Quarantine
Lol you must be the daimyo by now 😂
Ive always wanted to learn and practice kendo and this is the first video that i found and I appreciate how in depth you go
That one comment: "You searched this"
Me who found it in my recommended:
*I am 4 parallel universes ahead of you*
Really glad to have found your videos. I have always been interested in learning kendo and recently got something to begin practicing at home with. Im currently overweight and find that motivation to move and lose weight is hard to find so im hoping that practicing your teachings at home in my backyard will help me lose weight and perhaps one day join a dojo to truly hone my skills in this art. Amazingly clear and detailed teachings like yours really are what help keep the art alive and keep bringing in new people such as myself to learn it.
i have nothing to do in quarantine, so I've learned it for weeks
I'm ready to challenge you
Thanks for your comment! Challenge not accepted! 👍
This is the funniest thing to me, i love this comment@@KendoGuide
This content is magnificent. So many precious details in one display. A jewel. Thank you so much for sharing it.
I especially appreciate how you explain the basics from the position (point of view) of _the sword_ (katana) using the bokuto as what _it should represent_ (a blade) and not see everything from the shinai stand.
This guy is such a good instructor ,he makes learning easier .
I love this guy, he is very clear and repeats what he says so it's easy for me to follow and understand, especially when I have a slow learning process.
21:42 a great death metal singer, love it, cant wait until next album
Amazing really, the best trainer I've found here. It is so relaxing to practice using a Katana in the morning
Can't tell you how much I appreciate this video. I live in a rural area with no access to this knowledge but thanks to you I'm learning the correct way.
I'm practicing Kendo at home trying to shape up
Good! Keep it up!
loved the fine detail of technique covered here - thank you kindly
+Bernard Putersznit Thank you!
Sensai, First of all I would like to thank you for this insightful video. I have only watched it once after searching for Kata techniques that I can practice at home. I have only been doing Kendo for 3 weeks and I am obviously getting used to the basics. My Dojo is only open for practice once per week and I really want to invest more time into technique. I have been told that to improve my technique, I must concentrate on Kata. I know that 2 people are needed for correct Kata but the techniques in this video are a great start for me. I have subscribed to your channel and will be watching more of your work and of course putting it into action.
I know a little of english but uself make it so clear, what a good teacher/master...
What a calming, intelligent instructor!!! Thank you for this excellent video!
Thank you!
i'd really like to thank you for your well-made video, helped me lot getting started in kendo! im just doing it for personal fitness reasons as i practice lots of different sports and kendo is particular fun to me as i like japanese culture. plus i'd like to compliment you personally as you seem to put great effort in ur teachings, as well as answering almost to every asked question here. respect!
SpeedZtarDeluxe Thank you for your kind words! Kendo is not very well known to the world yet so many misunderstand it. And since people don't know about it, they tend to learn the wrong kendo. So I want to help them at least to understand what kendo really look like! Let me know if you have any questions!
These tips are really helpful for home practice. It is amazing how little things you normally do not pay too much attention to do help improve sword techniques. Two thumbs up!
WOW!!!! IMHO: THIS IS AN EXCELLENT, DETAILED DEMO!!! THANKS!!!
Holy shit this guy is an absolute beast! Such a good tutorial!
Thanks!
I came here searching for some pointers on how to practice some suburi and i learned a few new things. Thanks, your video help me understand some of the unclear things. I'll go practice now :D
Tahayari Dan You are more than welcome! Glad that the video helped you :)
His patience is that of a big brother, his expertise that of an experienced teacher. I'm glad I stumbled on his video.
My left wrist and elbow popped a lot before I watched this video. This video really helped my form! Thanks you
Thank you for your teaching, Master. I am grateful.
You're welcome!
Great video , thank you very helpful . I've been studying for a long time different styles and techniques

I just joined my university's kendo club. We have a 7-dan instructor who is very proficient, but this is great for practicing at home. Thank you for the content.
i really appreciate this video and can understand everything you're talking about along time ago i used to study kendo and i really enjoyed it fortunately i caught on rather well and always trained very hard every single day i really do miss it so i ordered two suburi bokken and plan to practice once again although i must admit i think i am going to be a little rusty but it should be fun i usually always put all of my time in to shotokan but i really do miss the budokan dojo and the sound of shinai and bokken cutting through the air and kiai
Finally found it , 🙌 master I'll watch this and practice
I love ya!! I appreciate the time and teaching. Domo Arigato gozaimasu. Very zen like. The sword is a beautiful weapon that takes many years of tears, sweat and ( occasion cussing 🤬). My thanks 🙏
Thank you! Well to me, a lot of cussing! LOL!
I had been in kendo for 3 years ,this is a great refresher
how old are you im 14 and i dont know if its too late for kendo
Finally a video that gives exact instruction on how to do Kendo. Now I can actually try! Thank you so muchhhhhhhh 🙂
