      Bring left hand with sword to Right hand, easier draw. I love what said about not being fast, real fights are push shove anger movements, 3% of our skills are generally what comes out that time we had to fight someone.

      I liked coming from a video with another version of gyakute-naki where they draw without downward facing reverse grip, and realized this style uses it to practice the reverse draw techniques that require the hand to swap grips

    When I saw Sekki sensei in this channel,
    I was delighted to see a true sword master existing.
    It is nothing to do with his sword techniques but the principle that majority of us either disregard or blinded to it.
    Thank you.

    Loving the new channel! Question for Shogo: would it be possible in future to not only translate the Japanese text to the English way of spelling them, but also in parentheses post what the words mean in English for those of us that don't speak any Japanese? Google Translate can give all sorts of different meanings depending on how you punctuate a word, and it would be nice to know what is correct without guessing. For instance I put in 'Shimo-dachi-wari' and got 'Frost-Dachi Wari', then hit some button by accident that changed it to 'frost dachy split', then tried 'Shimo-dachi wari' and got 'Freezing Frost', and only upon doing 'shimo dachi wari' did I get 'lower cut'; which while the others sound cool I'm assuming that is the correct translation for the move. Thanks a bunch!

    Even watching Seki-sensei's form, I am still having problems with putting the saya back on the uchi-gatana. Right as the kibaki is going in, the fingers on my left hand get in the way of fully sheathing. I see Seki-sensei move his left thumb out of the way, but my index finger always seems to get caught.
    I guess I just need to keep following his example and practicing. I'm so grateful that the world is able to watch this art form, that it may live on forever!

    Please explain Gyakute-nuki (at 3:44 )

    Would it not make sense to do normal grip and not need to reset hands above head?

    I find the bottom up one the hardest. I can't get any momentum behind it without pressing the blade against the sheath and the tip tends to get stuck at the last moment. The others, I draw, I am in a guard position, more or less and can instantly cut in a fluid motion.

    I have no coordination. But my iaito is on order anyways! Must get better at handling katana. Must become more proficient at sparring (my heart!). I can only try my best! Thanks for making this video. ^^

    Hello sensei this channel is amazing.
    I wanted to ask something about japanese swords and i was hoping maybe you could give me the answer.
    I was studying aikido for 9 years and my sensei once told me when he was demonstrating iaido with a katana that todays katana are little bit diffrent then in the past where there were wars. My sensei told me that swords had much thicker blades then todays swords becuse of sharpening.
    And i wonder if it really was so much thicker and heavier than today shinken for example. And if the blade was thick did the tsuka have to be also thicker and bigger in order not to crack the wood and break?
    Thank you very much fo this channel and i look forward into future videos of history and martial arts.

    This Ryu has also Taijutsu techniques? Or just weapons.

    Getting that swoosh sound with a real steal sword, is not "just just" 😅

    I don't want to admit how long it took me to just figure out what movements I need to do for gyakute-nuki
