Love it. The essence is simple..You run into a group of enemy, who are usually lightly armoured and cut them down as you run along, shrieking like a banshee. Its not a duelling style, not a style for one on one. Its a style to cut down as many of the enemy as you can, as quickly as you can.
”正座、 礼” "Seiza, Rei", means to sit in "seiza" position on the knees and then bow, "rei", which is a greeting and sign of respect to the teacher and fellow students. ”黙想” "Mokusou", is a form of meditation that can be as long or as brief as you need it to be, but the point is to clear your mind of unnecessary things and focus on practice.

I love this style! It’s cognitively and physically fluent. All the chopping and lunges must make these people’s fingers, wrists, forearms, shoulders, back, core, quads, calves, and feet/ ankles extremely strong! I addition, from all that running around, their endurance/stamina must be off the charts. This is similar to chopping wood and sledgehammer work. I don’t use a sword, but I do use a hanbo and jo, and this style could improve my strength with those weapons. No, this style is not silly or ugly! Didn’t Musashi kill Sasaaki with one stroke from a carved down boat oar? Think about it!
Jigen-ryu was very effective style used in battle during the Meiji Restoration. Yeah, they look and sound pretty silly whacking a bundle of sticks. But imagine yourself back then, as a samurai on the battlefield with a Jigen-ryu swordsman charging at you. He is screaming at you like a mad man, his eyes say "I don't care if I die, as long as I take you with me" and is about to bring a cold steel blade down on your face with arms that were conditioned by a few thousand strikes with those heavy sticks on a daily basis for years.
@@ColdNapalm42 they can also do diagonal cuts. this was the feared ryu during that time. take note that even soldiers and shinsengumi feared this, and they are soldiers...
@@Keevas2123 the way they are holding their weapons, the diagonal cut is steep...and highly telegraphed. So...yes side step is your friend. Also, if this phased professional soldier of the era, that say more about how bad the warriors of that era is more than anything else.
@@ColdNapalm42 you clearly don't realize how sword fighting works in real life. And you just base on this video. Hundreds years have passed since the original technique used by actual people. Over the decades some technique transform from practical use to more artistic use. Watch hema videos and kendo. Although the practical use for war in kendo in war was gone, just imagine if you can sidestep.
@@Keevas2123 this is NOT BLOODY KENDO. I am judging this on what they showed...not what might have happened 800 years ago. You might not be the warrior wannabe you think you are if you can't judge the effectiveness of techniques as you see them...along with how to counter them. Especially something as simple as a side step when your opponent is holding their weapon in a manner that allows for VERY limited movements. And yeah this is once again NOT KENDO. Also if you don't know that kenjitsu is the HEMA equivalent for JSA...or that there are kenjitsu schools that spar to pressure test their techniques and just bring up kendo...not sure you should be lecturing me on effectiveness of techniques...or anyone really.
I hope that someday Japan will get absolute sovereignty from usa. Today Japan loosing its historical identity. Look at these real men- honorable traditionalists that saving Japan culture. Banzai!

Kendo is changed sports from Kenjutsu. This Jigen ryu is real kenjutsu as sword martial arts. Anyway sword arts must swing a sword from up to down. This movement shoud be fast and strong. So this training of smashing wood is very rational. And those sticks are special kind of tree. The gathered woods are specially strong to be tapped by wood sword. While the wood sword also stronger than casual wooden sword as Bokutou. The samurai who killed English men riding on horse at Kanagawa in 1865, was JIgen ryu specialist. When English men went to cross the road in front of the convoy of Satsuma lord without concius of manners to Lord, the samurai killed english men by jigen ryu instantly as a second.
Many Kenjutsu styles were actually soft in application and were heavily sought after because they got great results in combat. With no muscular tension, you rely on skeletal alignment and using your core (hips) for power and can maneuver more efficiently. But with so many different Kenjutsu schools it’s important to remember that they existed for so long because they used their methods with success, despite the very different methods.
This is the silliest martial arts practicing I have ever seen, I think it seems to be perfect for those who have watched way to much anime. Still I would not want to get hit by one of these guys.
lemondrop Just pick on the guy with dyslexia and who's writing in his second language, that's perfectly fine. No problem at all. None. *Starts to cry loudly and viciously, then runs away howling.*
You should learn a little bit more about this marshal arts. May be this was the most practical Kenjutsu in end of Edo period. Many samurai were killed by Jigen-ryu. Even Shinsen-gumi said that avoid first attack of Jigen-ryu. Imagine, 2m in front of you, anmy draw the sword and attack you by swinging the sword from ground to your body....... Many people laugh at Jigen-ryu. But samurai of Satsuma was the strongest samurai in Japan.
BizenKiyomitsu Well, killing samurais is something I personally don't have much use for. I would rather learn some kick boxing or karate, where I don't need a big fucking stick (wooden) with me if I would need to defend myself. But as I basically said, I don't doubt that it's effective as long you have a stick. But it still looks fucking stupid.
these guys get it. Hit him relentlessly until he dies or runs away. Hit him fast too keep him on the defensive. Hit him hard so that he has no choice but too react too you. In life and death scenarios, simple simply wins.
Why would you practice chopping something? Would an enemy lay on the ground like that and let you chop them? Or are they practising how to chop pigs for their barbeque?
It's to build up strength, as when you first pick up a sword, it's not likely that you're going to be able to behead someone. (not that you would need to do anything like that these days, but its part of the art none-the-less)
Major reason is that Jigen-ryu is aiming KILLING enemy by first strike. Then it is very normal focusing on to practice imaging first strike. Second reason is keeping concentration by continuous striking. They are not just swinging wooden bar. In each strike he must put full of his spirit and concentration. Then naturally his sprit and concentration will be strengthened. Third reason is when Jigen-ryu was started, samurai must wear heavy armor (20~25Kg). And then, they had to fight several hours. (After battle of Sekigahara, Sep. 1600, samurai of Satsuma escaped for 1000km.) They diffinitely need strong and tough body. This training also suit for such purpose. They are preparing for battle, not prparing for BBQ.
Why would you practice at a pistol/rifle range, with targets "just standing there"? Why would you practice making model airplanes? Why would you practice bowling? Practice shooting hoops? Batting cage? Putting green? Wood working? Practice anything in life? Answer: To Improve Yourself as a person, and as a competitor.
Why would you hit a heavy bag to train for boxing or MMA? You're right. Jigen-Ryu swordsmen should hit a human partner as hard as they can in the head or shoulders with a two-handed overhead stroke of a thick, heavy, hardwood rod.
This is really weird, I expect to see this from random McDojos in the US. Unlike most kenjutsu schools I have seen, this one barely focuses on any technique and just...cutting your opponents in one pattern? Thanks god, there were not in Sengoku time or they would be the first to die wihout a kill.

江戸時代、泰平の世になり戦が無くなった。結果、お武家様、お侍様方々は、みんな暇を持て余した。
現代で言う自衛隊として、「訓練が仕事」になった。
その、「訓練の仕事化」とは、つまり「武術 剣術のスポーツ化 競技化」、その変化の過程で胡散臭さを内包する事になったのかな。「実戦を知らない開祖が考案した型」、実戦で勝つよりも、「精神修練」を重視し宗教的な内容に変化し、現代の剣道や柔道なんかにも稽古の中に瞑想がある。
瞑想で強くはなれんわな。
そんな事するより、１回でも多く、木刀を振った方が良い。
@@せろモタ 朝に三千、夕に八千…。初太刀のみをそんだけ稽古すれば才能のない人でもそれなりのバケモノになるよね。
やることを絞って繰り返し鍛錬し、先鋭化し迷いを捨てさせる事で、誰でも実戦で活躍できる剣士に育てる。超実戦的だよね。
@@せろモタ 史上最強の剣豪と言われる、生涯無敗であった宮本武蔵は瞑想を重視し、剣禅一如という言葉を作った。柔道や剣道で瞑想を行うのは脳の神経回路の性能を高めるためであり、宗教とは何の関係もない。訓練の量は多すぎると疲労が蓄積して動きが鈍くなる。訓練の最適量は個人差があり、多くの制約条件の中で訓練の最適量を決めるには高度な数学技術を駆使したコンピューターシミュレーションが必要である。
木刀を振るだけの練習をいくらやってもすぐに限界が来る。踏み込みの瞬発力を向上させるには、腰にチューブをつけての１０ｍダッシュの反復、ウェイトリフティングのスナッチの練習、走り幅跳びの練習、などが必要。持久力を高めるにはボクサーが行う長距離走が必要。鍔迫り合いで押し負けないためには、ベンチプレス、スクワット、デッドリフトなどのウェイトトレーニングが不可欠だ。
@@miturusatozaki5490 静止物を打ち込むだけの訓練法では相手との間合いを操作する技術や相手の攻撃に対する防御技術を習得することは不可能なので全く実戦的ではない。基礎練習である打ち込み反復練習に加えて、剣道のように相手との立会い稽古をするこそがもっとも実戦的である。さらに、瞬発力、持久力などの基礎運動能力を向上させる訓練も不可欠だ。

Major reason is that Jigen-ryu is aiming KILLING enemy by first strike. Then it is very normal focusing on to practice imaging first strike.
Second reason is keeping concentration by continuous striking. They are not just swinging wooden bar. In each strike he must put full of his spirit and concentration. Then naturally his sprit and concentration will be strengthened.
Third reason is when Jigen-ryu was started, samurai must wear heavy armor (20~25Kg). And then, they had to fight several hours. (After battle of Sekigahara, Sep. 1600, samurai of Satsuma escaped for 1000km.) They diffinitely need strong and tough body. This training also suit for such purpose.
They are preparing for battle, not prparing for BBQ.
Why would you practice at a pistol/rifle range, with targets "just standing there"? Why would you practice making model airplanes? Why would you practice bowling? Practice shooting hoops? Batting cage? Putting green? Wood working? Practice anything in life? Answer: To Improve Yourself as a person, and as a competitor.
Why would you hit a heavy bag to train for boxing or MMA?
You're right. Jigen-Ryu swordsmen should hit a human partner as hard as they can in the head or shoulders with a two-handed overhead stroke of a thick, heavy, hardwood rod.

This is really weird, I expect to see this from random McDojos in the US. Unlike most kenjutsu schools I have seen, this one barely focuses on any technique and just...cutting your opponents in one pattern? Thanks god, there were not in Sengoku time or they would be the first to die wihout a kill.
下からの袈裟切り、防御もしづらい。
もし防御しようとすると相手は刀が下げる、そこに打ち下ろす…
そんなんわかってても怖いわ
anyone else immediately think of sword master of melee island? :s
