Kikugido Practice Journal

September 21, 2017

Today is the first training menu for both children and adults,
It was a practice where we faced multiple opponents.

First, the first opponent appears, and you turn your vector toward him. Then the second opponent appears, and you face the second one while keeping the first one in your hand.
Then came the third.
The whole body, including the feet, hands, and eyes, and the whole spirit, confront the three as they continue to capture them.

If they make a move, you respond to it.

Since the movements are not predetermined, you have to feel the live partner to move.

It is very difficult because you cannot see it, but when you are truly connected to the other person, the air that flows in the place is different.

Do you "feel" it instead of "see" it?

I thought this might be one of the secrets of swordsmanship.

Thank you again for your time today. Thank you for your hard work.
