Art of Kyudo HD 

Kyudo is meditation using bow and arrows. It's not a war art. If you want to learn Japanese archery (for target/war), you have to look up something called "Kyūjutsu"

LoL the guys face at 2:17

38 years old?!? Amazing! She looks much younger.

before my health went bad i was into archery since a early age.always loved my longbow perfect hunting weapon,she is right archery helps you to stay calm, focus,be one with your self.always found japan style bow interesting,because limbs are so far off center,unlike typical D long bow,where the arrow shelf is about 3/4" above center,id love to find a documentary explaining how it develop(no shortage on the sword)fascinated with samurai/old japan history,and there culture too so polite respectful

She's fired an arrow straight into my heart.

Don't know why but starting at 0:45 I couldn't stop blinking

"We should practise at least 30 years..."

Wow, that is pretty cool, it's nice to see that people still practice yabusame along with kyudo.

very interesting tradition, I can imagine that this is kinda relaxing!

Fascinating! Thank you.

Superbly shot and edited piece. I hope you produce more.

so beautiful art form..

The bow is asymetrical so it can be used from horseback.

Great video

Her eyes blinks so much... to much thinking going on :)

she is 38? wow she looks early 30s late 20s

what are the draw weights of those bows?. as a recurve 40lb compound 60lb archer that draw method they use is just incredible and looks damn hard.

It's believe its actually that way because there is more vibration when shooting from the center.

yah

I know this is an old video but where can you get a bow like the ones in the video

Very beautiful woman!

at least they are hitting something...

muito ritual para pouco acerto

Draw weight ? 12 lbs lol ?:D
