4:32 shomen-uchi block (top head) 4:45 Yokomen and kesa block (neck or side of the head 5:36 Dou block (torso/upper body) 6:07 leg block (legs, kinda obvious) 6:30 suri age (top center of head) 6:47 Tsuki block (blocks straight jabs to head/throat)

@sheldonjunior7467 Год назад

4:32 more effective of you step right side , positioning your body to not get in center attack area , on side that your enemy not reach his attack accuracy

@slimjimninja8670 3 года назад

Thank you SOOOOO much, I've trying to find ways to block the legs(because that's all my friends go for) and I FINALLY have a chance to beat them! Thank you sooooo much, please keep doing what you're doing, your videos are fire!

@maskedfishing7168 3 года назад

I by far am not a master of the katana and please correct me if I am wrong. I asked the same question because that’s what people go for a quick hit. I was told by someone that practice Iaido that they don’t strike at legs because it leaves the head open to strike. In a real life sword fight it was very common for both fighters to die however you will always get cut……always

@chopstick1671 2 года назад

@@maskedfishing7168 you wouldn’t *always* get cut. If both parties value their safety and want to survive, the chances of one person coming out unscathed are higher; whereas as soon as one person doesn’t care about their own safety, it becomes a far more dangerous ordeal. Geometrically speaking it’s true that the legs are not the most logical target, as you need to be closer to hit the legs, than you need to be for any other target. Thus if someone just cuts your legs without guarding, you can cut them in the head, or stab them, or whatever. This shorter range weakness is also your best defense against leg attacks in my opinion. You can void with your front leg and cut at the arms or head, since you have more range doing that. I don’t like the guards where he parries with the point down straight down almost. Its a very weak parry I feel like, and it’s too bunched up, if you will, to change into an immediate counter attack.

Can you do another video blocking and striking over the head to each other non-stop for 2 minutes. I like to know the angle and the way to move out-of-the-way. I am doing it with my students now moving at the same time striking to block the Head. Let me know when you can do the video paxxp thank you.🤚🙏🤗♥️👌😇

I came across your video. Not bad. Although generally aren't any blocks in Kenjutsu. Attacks are received and neutralized. For example Ukenagashi. You are more likely to see blocks in Kendo and some schools of Iaido.

@izumi5178 Год назад

I have a question what if after suri age the enemy proceeds to go for a Pierce/ stab or thrust

@kronoscamron7412 Год назад

is it possible to replace the shomen uchi block with the yokomen, but with an angle which only a small part of the sword is covering your men?, I prefer to do it that way since you can follow up with a dou strike quickly. because the shomenuchi block leaves your dou open.

Wooden short sword will be my self defense weapon can bring them anywhere and with training it could do damage to someone attackin with a knife, which is high crime weapon used in my area. Thanks to this i can train in home without them knowing ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

@kronoscamron7412 Год назад

A boktu is a formidable weapon in the trained hands, and offcourse it can be lethal if you want it to be, but mostly in self defense it can do serious damage,incapacitation,concussion,broken bones and general pain compliance, I personally avoid fights if I can, but if the situation arises , I prefer to use my oak boktu, rather than a katana or a dagger. Not saying it cant get you in legal trouble, for instance if you hit someone hard on the fore arm or shoulder, kote or kesagiri. it WILL break bones, and unless its established as self defense you will get a sentence, that's why I do my best to avoid fights. the only problem is that a dou strike with a bokken wont do much damage because its a soft area, it will hurt but will not be effective with a wooden sword. but very effective and lethal with a sharp sword.

@kronoscamron7412 Год назад

One day after training for years you wake up go to the dojo , and enter a shiai match and you have that moment, holy crap I am sword fighting well, it is funny how its so random, when you hit that next stage, then the shiai after, you are not as good because the next stage is harder. this cycle is never ending, sure at a certain level you can win almost every match but you know you are not where you wish to be regardless of your years and hard training, kenjutsu is such a never ending sea.

Where do you look at your opponent? I was told do not concentrate on the blade but the shoulders of your enemy. I would also love to see an actual spar episode.

@kronoscamron7412 3 года назад

I was told to zone out the eyes and focus on the outline...i.e opponent's whole body, use both perception and sight and don't get caught in small details. if you focus on specific part of the body (arms,sword,shoulders) you will get hit.

@chopstick1671 2 года назад

That sounds more like boxing if you ask me. Swordfights are very complex, and you can’t focus on every part of the enemy’s body at once; so mostly you have peripheral vision to help you, and just reflexes. Most important I’d say is to be aware of where their sword is at all times. Then I’d say second most important is their feet. Power generation often (should) start at the feet, and the feet also indicate if someone is balanced or not, and thus if you might want to try and overrun them into grappling for example. But mostly, don’t focus too much on where to look.

I can't seem to understand how simply raising the sword can block the opponent's sword which will continue falling anyway and cut. 2. What's the best way to block a sequence of "kiri age" strikes (i.e. alternating from lower left and lower right)? Any help you can provide will be most helpful. All the best and all the success to you and your endeavors!
