Kikugido Practice Journal

special consideration for non-traditional (older) children

Since there was only one participant today, we concentrated on kumite return practice.
We took more time than usual to point out the details of each kumite, from the key points of each kumite to individual weaknesses.

It is very difficult to see only myself during the entire rehearsal time, but at the same time it is a very precious time.

I think it was a good practice, concentrating all the way through to the end.

The first class started with postures 1 to 5, followed by kumite 1 with great awareness of posture.
The posture is very important in movement, not just in a stationary form. I felt that this practice is very typical of swordsmanship.

After that, Kumite 1 was changed, even more new and various elements were added than before!

In addition, we practiced a new sword dance, which was cool when it was decided, because it was quite difficult.
We will practice more and more so that we can do it together.

Thanks again for your hard work today.
