I always had the feeling that all these iaido moves were carefully designed to minimize self inflicted damage....then comes Furikaburi and the art of cutting your left ear as elegant as possible. What in all things were they thinking back then?
Well I'm 2 videos in and from my limited experience you have a very clear, concise way of illustrating Iaido fundamentals. I am a student of Ninjutsu and we have to learn some kenjutsu (mostly from Kukishin Ryu I believe) and so with the lockdown I decided to take Iaido as well to supplement/boost my training in Budo...and it was a great idea!!! Iaido is a very, very deep art from the couple of months I've been studying it and seems like it will give me goals for a lifetime. I highly recommend it to people, but it isn't for everyone. We study Muso Shinden Ryu and have some other Ryu-ha in there as well, I am not sure what Ryu you study as I'm a novice but your lessons seem universal and hit on what we as students need regardless of style. Thank you
Thanks very much! Appreciate that
Thank you Sensei for your wisdom and experience....
Very interesting, especially for
the explanation of the technical words of the gestures of each kata. Thank you.
My pleasure thanks for reaching out. We have plenty more for ya!
Excellent lesson, highly detailed. Thank you!
You're very welcome!
This is great! Beautiful movements. I practice Korean sword forms as part of Tae Kwon Do. What I find different is that we quickly twist our un-drawn sword prior to drawing. We also move into a lunge position without our back knee touching the ground prior to putting our sword back into the holder (it's hard!). It's very interesting to see the different adaptations across the countries!
Thank you very much.
In Iaido we twist our swords (katana, I know the korean swords are different) too. It's not prior to drawing, its twisting as we draw.
@@r0yce It might ultimately be that way for us as well. Perhaps at the elementary level, they are just teaching us the steps.
Thank you so much for the BEAUTIFUL videos 🙂🙂
But def. volley ball kneepads helps a lot in seiza, you can use similar pads for the top of your feet too.
Thanks very much
Nice wasa/ kata
Where are you based? Sydney? Do you have dojo?
Thanks
Thanks very much. Our dojo is in Massachusetts in America
Very helpful how may I contact you? Thank you
Thank you for your comme t. Feel free to contact us through our website at www.ribudo.blog
Just started Iaido, I'm over 60. Fortunate to find an instructor who doesn't insist on my kneeling- my artificial knee courtesy of the Navy just doesn't permit seiza or tatehiza.
This is another very good video to practice with (I prefer standing) and thus is a very important fundamental practice at any level, thank you Senseii
Thank you so much for your teaching it was excellent I have a question for you bow to your katana is the sharp blade is it facing you opposite direction? When you are sitting ol standing? When you enter the dojo you should be holding your Katana on your left side if you hold on the right side you are asking for a fight is called respect carrying on the left side
Thanks so much! I’m learning this on my own and these videos are very helpful.
My pleasure! We have plenty for you! Thanks so much for reaching out. We do have a distance program if you are ever interested
Hello from Canada. What is the weight of iaito you would recommend to someone 5'10"/160lb?
As far as weight go with the lightest one you can get. However you need to be sure you are using the correct length. There are many manufacturers websites that have online tools to measure
@@TheBudoAcademy Thanks for the info.. I was unsure and ordered a functional sword 2lbs 3oz also suitable for tameshigiri. I can slim it down a few ounces if need be for a dedicated iaito. Cheers!
@@KF1 my pleasure , best of luck in your training!
Tq for lesson 🙏
Thank Sensei,
Standing Mae is for me with my double TKR. Will you be making beginner standing waza’s only? Mae, what wax’s is next?
Hi Randy, yes we will be updated all of our standing waza in the library very soon!
Great lesson, thank you very much. Would you be able to link me the video on the breathing and the varying speeds?

@@TheBudoAcademy thank you so much, that's very generous of you.
@@arranfox1554 my pleasure, thanks you for your intrest in the arts.
What katana do you recommend that’s affordable but won’t fall apart?
So Tozando is your best bang for your buck. As far as less expensive models, I haven't seen one i like yet
Thank you for your teaching sensei when you're sitting when you're bowing to your katana which way is it facing?
Email me and I'll send you a video.

great lesson thx
Thanks 👍🏼
I woke up this morning and decided to get down on me knee and then back up to standing position, definitely not easy. After my morning coffee my first RUclips video to pop-up is this perfect video, lol, and an excellent video to start with. Thank you. Now I begin my lesson getting into position, ahh, then back up. 🤓👍
like all the other lessons very well explained. looks like my knees can deal with seiza mae but my toes aren't 😂 right foot toes no Problem but the left foot toes they won't bend enough. 😮 guess it takes a few weeks to make them more flexible wirh toe streching exercises 😅
There is something truly enjoyable about your thick Boston accent talking about Iaido. Thanks for these awesome videos!
Lol, appreciate that a wicked lot!
@@TheBudoAcademy I am about to start practicing tatami cutting practice but you convinced me to also get a nice Iaido sword from Tozando as well so I don't cut my hand off when working on Iaido. I wish I lived closer to join your dojo but I'm on the west coast. I'll be watching more of your videos to help get started!
@@captainspoof101 yes I do not recommend cutting without proper instruction. Plus iaido has so many more benefits
Isn't there a small move forward with the back knee before your Furikaburi? Then you set your front foot forward just a bit before the Kirioroshi.
@@Naisho07 excellent question, yes in the seitei version of this waza.
@@TheBudoAcademy thank you. Keep up the great videos.
@@Naisho07 thanks very much
slow medium fast can you send me a link please?
Contact me through the website Mr. Meulenburg.. Iaikempo@gmail.com
Nicely done!
Is it mandatory to use those clothes ? Can we use a short or pants and a t-shirt? 🤔
You can wear whatever you want, as long as you are training!
@@TheBudoAcademy awesome, greetings from Brazil!
@@kattine1 thank you! Feel free to check out our distance program , we have students from all over. Would love to have a contact in Brazil!

Train well
A little off topic but everyone keeps telling me that if your hand touches the blade you should clean it and oil it so do you clean your sword after each time you perform Noto? I mean clean it at the end of that practice that day.
You should clean and oil after every practice. Regardless of how often the blade gets touched.
Also because the oil can get into the Saya which helps the conditioning of the wood.
Thanks for reaching out!
Im 46 and thinking of tharting Iaido but both my knees are shot, id love to see some of the standing techniques

The fluid movement is impressive and important. My sensei had a walkthrough like a stop motion animation. It was less fluid, but it always caught the opponent off guard. It looked sloppy, but was effective against trained students. But, it was like calling in an outside party in wrestling. The way taught here is much more effective and requires less effort by the user. I realized I have been doing it wrong for over 20 years. Thank you for the lesson.
Thanks very much.
No sir. Thank you very much. I am humbled by your approach and your commitment to the old ways. I will watch your videos and learn and unlearn past mistakes. You have improved my skills in a way that cannot be measured. I have been practicing for over 25 years and have learned so much from you in a few videos. Literally a half of a second of improvement in execution. That is what determines a positive outcome.
Just discovered this channel, very informative
Thanks and welcome!
Nice detail
Iaido trainee here. One thing I'll never understand is why do we learn to do so much stuff sitting or starting from a kneeling/resting position. Hardly ever you'll get in a fight where you have a katana right on your belt while sitting on the floor wearing a hakama (maybe at a comic-con or a halloween party). In all seriousness, not a single samurai ever sat down inside a building with their uchi katana on them, only the wakizashi if they ever had both swords. So, it's historically incorrect and not very practical, it just looks cool and makes you feel "ready" for battle even while sitting down, but there's almost no chance of that actually ever happening.
The Shoden set. "Sho" means beginner. It teaches fundamentals. You need these skills to become competent. Read the history and it all makes sense.
@@TheBudoAcademy surely as I become more proficient at it it will make more sense. I do have a Japanese friend that happens to be a historian and told me that samurai class would hardly have an uchi katana on them while indoors bc it was disrespectful and impractical. So that's pretty much the reason of my question. Still love it though, it's a beautiful art form!! My respects good sir 🙏
So years ago when. The martial arts forums were very active. These very subject was beaten to death.
Keep in mind the history of all the headmasters and why they did the things that they felt was important. If you look at my Knee pain in seiza video it explains why we go into seiza. Training wise, it has nothing to do with being indoors.
I want to do this so badly.

Thank You !
My pleasure!
What happens if your opponent isnt defeated after Chiburi?
The waza changes just like in Yaegaki.
