I love it when you said 40 years ago, you showed winding the cassette with a pencil ( only us old schoolers would understand)
Thanks for your comment, @hectorchao1962! 😄 Right? And when the tape would get tangled halfway... Oh, that was so annoying!
Thank you Hiro Imafuji Sensei. Rei.
You're very welcome, @edenwalsh1014!
I heard a Japanese saying something to the effect: "Strike and contemplate, get struck and be thankful."
Thanks for your comment, @steves8236! 😄 Yes. After we strike and get a valid cut, we need to look back and consider what we can improve and what was wrong with it. And when we get struck, we need to thank our opponent for teaching us our weaknesses. This is one of the key elements to keep improving.
PS...Please subscribe to my channel if you haven't! Thanks for your support! 🙏
It gives a new meaning to the adage that goes something like ...a wounded soldier makes a fiercer soldier.
Hello, i'm nidan and i have the chance to learn kendo with a traditional japanese sensei who is 7th dan. What you say in this video is something i've always heared from my sensei. I'm living in Europe and my dojo is a bit, let's say "apart" others 'cause sensei is not interested to teach us about shiai and competition but by self development by practicing kendo.
When i practice with others dojo or even some "shiai experts" in ji-geiko, even if i'm way lower than my opponents i can feel my kamae and maai strong.
So thanks a lot for this video and i really hope a lot of kenshi will see it and learn the best from it.
cheers
oo. For the longest time, I thought the "ji" in jigeko was in relation to "free" (jiyuu). This is great to understand and the whole video gives great insight into approaching practice. Thanks!
You're welcome, @timkono5645! 😄 I'm delighted that the video helped clarify the meaning of "ji" in jigeko for you. Keep up the great work in your practice! 👍
thank you. 🙏🏼 i study & practice iai. trying to understand niten, & plan on starting kendo shortly.
i watch your videos priming me for kendo. your explanations are clear & sound.
this explanation, was mind blowing & revelatory. “ jigeiko with purpose. “
thank you sensei
Thanks for your comment and you're welcome, @ziggysshiznit5282! 😄 You are practicing Iaido as well? That's great! 👍 Let me know when ou have a question especially after you start kedno. I am sure you will have a lot of questions :)
Thank you Sensei!
You're welcome, @tartarart4922! 😄
Thank you so much for this, Sensei!
You're welcome, @louislamonte334! 👍
Thank you so much for that explanation. It was like a light bulb turned on. It makes total sense.
You're welcome, @caibudo! 😄 I am so glad!
Thank you very much Sensei! This is important for me, as it can be very confusing. Thanks for clarifying This for me and others! Arigatou Gozaimasu!

Greetings from Buenos Aires.
Good to hear, @franciscoalvarez1189! 😄 Keep up the good work!

Thanks sensei, how does one study the heterodoxy of kendo? You mentioned that you have an interest in this in your southpaw video. I am interested in participating in isshu jiai, learning various kamae, as well as the techniques used in police kendo. How does one start down this path?
Thank you for your question, it's great to hear you're interested in the broader aspects of kendo that go beyond the orthodox practice, @Ianmar1! 😄
First and foremost, it's crucial to master orthodox kendo techniques. They provide the foundation upon which you can safely and respectfully explore alternative approaches.
I believe that understanding the cultural and historical background of kendo enriches your practice, even if some of the origins are not entirely clear.
If you're looking to diversify your kendo skills, I recommend learning from multiple martial arts and seeing how their techniques could apply to kendo and vice versa. However, it's important to respect the rules and boundaries of each martial art you're integrating into your practice.
I personally like to learn the principles and concepts of other martial arts, especially those of the movements. They give me insights and make me think of more effective methods to move.
As for police-specific kendo techniques, I am not sure if you can learn. I personally don't really know what they do differently other than ashi-barai. I am sure they do things differently but sorry, I cannot help you with this one. Police also train in taiho-jutsu, for example, which is a separate discipline for arresting techniques. While some aspects overlap with kendo, they are practiced differently.
So if you're interested in stepping outside traditional boundaries, my advice is to start with a solid understanding of orthodox kendo, then gradually branch out while maintaining a high level of respect for the art forms you're engaging with. I always hear things like "Oh, it doesn't make sense. Aikido (jujutsu, karate or whatever the other martial arts) does this ". This is a lack of respect.
I hope this provides some insight into your journey!
