Kendo's technique①

Awesome stuff I feel like I might be too old to learn this fabulous art but I don't care as soon as I find a good school I will start studying.

Self control and strict discipline I love it

I'm pleased to be a kendoka!!❤

Can kendo be useful for self-defense?

what If you are holding a katana, but it suddenly become 1 meter longer when you pull it out, cutting at an object :)). I think no any skill arts would able to work well then.

китайцы дерутся деревяшками японцы железками - в этом отличие китайских от японских единоборств

I completely don't understand the shouting rule at all

Just the tip aye

Good video. After 9 years of doing Kendo here is what I will say regarding a good state of mind towards kendo vs misconceptions. People have to stop with this cliche naive fascination for 'Samurai' culture they are the roots of Kendo, but you are not going to kendo to learn how to be a Samurai or to know how to fight with a shin-ken(Katana). This is just a concept we laugh at as practitioners, Kendo is not the way you fights in a duel, a shinai is not modeled like a Katana, I want to stop hearing this it's absolutely ridiculous, a Katana behaves nothing like a shinai, you would not swing it like a shinai, it would never cut that way and anybody who has ever held a shin-ken or practiced Iaido knows this. Here's what kendo is on the other hand. It's a way of improving yourself as a person through the principles of the ken(sword). It's not about your opponent and all about yourself, you fight your own fears, insecurities and shortcomings, the technique, gear etc is a big part of kendo of course but at least of what I have learned about kendo it's all just an excuse to try to become a better person...Trying to beat an opponent and all the ego boosting we see a lot of in competition even from champions btw with very ugly form and jumping around goes against what Kendo should be really, it's all on what referees are accepting becoming the norm and kendo moving from a martial aspect to something that is just sport and about just touching rather than in the spirit of cutting...None of what we saw in that match was a valid Kote btw not by my standards, it's just crab jumping and touching, no stemi strike there

Sensei Bennet is the best foreigner kenshi. Every kenshi (kendoka) in Japan knows him

She is very cute

This video taught me a lot about Kendo in a good way. It also made me really admire the judges! I wonder if they ever blink. Not exactly a golf official.

Spirith Of Samnuray Is For Japonies .....Europeas ...Est american ... ...Nooooo

that crossfade hahaha

Nishimura needs a better back string of his bamboo sword
because damn its actually bending by just swinging it

Jesus christ

Are you allowed to use Tenshin Ryu Hyodo strikes and technique in Kendo ? Or both are totally different discipline ?

I thought the stage of total awareness is called “unagi”...ohh is that freshwater eel?

this is a really really bad quality upload... i mean cmon, split up into multiple parts and you're randomly messing with the audio

God this is aweful :D

kendo isn’t sword fighting but ok

now I know why anime characters shout when they attack because if they don't that will not count as ippon

Modern Kendo transformed into a sport, but the technique and manipulation used in shinai ( bamboo stick) are not that practical for real fight with katanna, I wont treat it as martial art. But Iaido is surely the martial art

Eee main koteee

This martial art is just amazing !

KENDO IS NOT A SPORT! IT IS A MARTIAL ART!!!

Wish I could learn kendo too 😫

that takes a lot of skill i think i will just get a gun

giving a shoutout to myself watching this vid again in the future

I swear if I find one of those “uM aCtUaLlY a KnIgHt WoUlD wIn” comments I’m gonna loose it.

Note: notice the power of the strike. The bamboo swords are bending !

You better believe that I would go for the legs and take you down ! 😀 even I could see the one that lost a point was a moron !

Useless sport.

Does beg the question why Kendo isn't represented at the Olympics but Judo is

How can I find a music from this video?

He look like hawk eye from MCU

My favourite moment of kendo is when they hit the other person in head and shortly after they scream:
-MEEEEEEEEEEEEEN!!!
