The number of subscribers goes up with every video I watch. But since it is December 31st already, maybe give it a little time to reach 100,000.
Tell me, please, how can I contact with Seki sensei and/or Mr. Yamaguchi as I'd like yo discuss some issues on cooperation.
Wow, what a day. Going on stage to, for the first time ever in front of an audience, take five random strikes from your beloved master, almost failing the seconding strike, having to reatune your mind, and then perfectly countering the third strike to the praise of your beloved master. Then to hear your beloved master say, “Seki-San, it’s time for me to retire. There’s nothing I need to worry about any more.” What an emotional roller coaster.
Great story.
Truly incredible, sounds like such an amazing honor! 😊
I'm also happy to see Shogo sharing and enjoying his training with Seki Sensei. 🤍
That is something i thought only happened in anime. So amazing!
Seki Sensei's story of his path to Sensei was very moving. Thank you for sharing.
When you teased the attacking part in the last video, I didn't imagine it would be with real weapons during a show match. That's truly a story to be told for generations
What a beautiful story of Seki Sensei training.
We love real history like this. My wife and I also had to get the tissues out 🥺🥹
Thank you Master for sharing 🙏
And thank you and Shogo for bringing this wonderful piece of living history to us all. May it never die. 🙏
Kate and John.
"When the student is ready, the teacher will appear!" As such, the Ryuha chooses the student in spite of the notion that it is the other way around!
I’m so happy to be able to hear Seki sensei’s teaching in English, this channel is amazing, thank you so much Seki Sensei 🙏🏻🥋
I've been on this planet longer than a week or two. Not gonna say how long, but I can recognize the quality of sensai's training. It is way above the norm. It is dedicated, which is no longer the norm for anything.
I'm so impressed by his passion for his arts and the admiration he has for his teacher.
Wonderful story and great interview, Shogo. Thank you very much for taking on this task to help Seki Sensei spread his art. Also, there are only 7 days in a week ;-)
00:02 10 days a week? I had to go back to hear it again haha!
he trained so hard he even altered the week by adding more days using magic and sheer power of will by training to train more XD thats how strong he is
What an amazing story, I can’t wait for the online classes!
As soon as the online lessons start I will definitely be signing up. I will be first in line for any courses held overseas as well!
The intro to these videos is epic-level amazing. I'm two videos in and completely addicted to this story.
That’s a beautiful story. It’s amazing to see that kind of authenticity still having a home in a world like ours.
This is an older video of yours I just watched. I have to say hearing how hard seki has had to work to get where he is, on top of his natural talent already goes to show that hard work will always win every time. As someone who let sports get him down in high school after injuries and other issues, it’s nice to hear that even a badass like seki has had to work for every inch none of it was given.
Man, such a compelling story. When men trained in the arts of killing speak openly about love, man it's very moving. I hope your ryuha continue to be strong!
That's an incredible story. I appreciate the level of dedication for his craft. As a practitioner of Shindo Music Ryu Jo-Jutsu, I can understand the desire to pass on the Ryuha from my Sensei in Fukuoka.
I could literally picture in my head the moment when Osaki Sensei smiled at Saki Sensei and made him the new Headmaster Asayama Ichiden Ryu, I'm sorry I've got some dirt in my eyes, I wasn't gonna cry. Beautiful story and great history of Asayama Ichiden Ryu, thank you so much Shogo for giving this priceless experience to the world. Next time i visit Nippon I will for sure stop by Kyoto and visit you both.
I just found this channel and am glad I did! Seki Sensei seems to be a great instructor and a great soul!
It's a very noble goal you are trying to achieve. I wish you to succeed and look forward to see both this channel and the school of Asayama Ichiden Ryu grow and prosper carrying on the centuries old traditions of kobudo.
This is an amazing story, I could see the compassion in this. I am a novice Iai practitioner, and id love to stay updated on the release of online lessons. I am a trained musician(guitarist/songwriter/teacher) by trade, and the mindset is very similar to the way I approach music, and echos my life as well. Thank you for sharing your art, and passion to the world.
That was a beautiful story, thank you for sharing it with us.
Whilst in the west, Knights are more or less titles of status only, it is heartening to see that even today, there are still real Kensei / 剣聖 in japan.
Dudes so good that he trained for days than there are in a week, per week
Wow hey that is a great origin story. Fitting for such an obviously amazing martial arts master. Best of days to you, sirs!
Thank you for starting the channel. I for one would be very interested in seeing more Jodo tactics against a variety of weapons. Good luck.
As someone who has taken martial arts for many years. I couldn't imagine how it felt for your sensei to choose you as his heir tobtake over his dojo.
From the videos i have watched of this man. The 21st master chose correctly.
I've been looking forward to these Shogo :) it's great to hear that Seki Sensei would also like to share his knowledge outside of Japan.
Do you know if Seki Sensei has ever taught any western students in Japan?
Your sensei seems like a warm hearted person and a good teacher. I love the story. Meny teachers seem much more up tight. I practice Muso Shinden Ryu Iaido in Finland. Our dojo is a member of the Yushingijuku Takada Dojo in Japan. It's the only iaido style I know by name in FInland at the moment. I'd love to see more senseis bring their teaching here.
i did cry, this was a beautiful story.
I love the new channel Shogo! Seki Sensei is in a class by himself. I look forward to all the future content and seminars you’ll have in the future. Keep up the great work Shogo!!!
Love this! I hope to be able to study in your style. I used to train in ninjutsu and I loved most the weapons forms… this looks like a deep dive into just that… perfect! I hope you are able to visit the USA someday soon
I love the dedication and loyalty that this specific martial art seems to instill into its practitioners. Perhaps you all follow the code written in the book of 5 rings. Thats something that is lacking in todays world.
What a great interview. If Seki Sensei starts online classes, I would definitely look into it.
I was thinking and I am still thinking about starting to learn with a katana (I considered it because I love swords and also because of my training in Japanese Jiu Jitsu which I have started in the age of seven (seventeen now)) and my master who is teaching me a fight with a Longsword told me that he will show me basics with a Katana and It would be great to have these video guides for this sword or maybe more like with this piece of art. Seki Sensei is a real master of his art and I am honored to have an opportunity to see the ways of the ancient fighting...🙏
I'm really hoping you can come to different countries (Italy in my case) and conduct some lessons there. This art seems very interesting and would be very appreciated overseas I'm sure.
Thank you for sharing very Moving and inspiring
Amazing story and amazing new channel. Thank you for this valuable content.
Where can I get a wood tessen like the one Sensei is holding? Thanks for the new channel!
Very intrigued by this online lessons idea…
Please come to San Diego! ❤
I may ask you that you used to say that he also used to practice some Hokushin Itto Ryu, is that right? I am just curious, sorry of I am wrong. 😅
Could you guys make a video comparing your style to the Korean sword art Haidong Gumdo?
Arigato Gozaimasu!
Hello, I only knows the name of ASAYAMA ICHIDEN RYU, for a book I found a lot of time before, called Asayama Ichiden Ryu Taijutsu
I want say that I am someone who doesn't have a dojo anywhere near me, and likely will not before I am far along enough in my years for it to matter, and have been practicing some of the things you teach on your channel (very basic things like the technique behind a basic cut, how to properly wear a hakama and katana, noto, etc), and I would never, even if I practiced alone for the rest of my years and developed solid fundamentals, consider myself anywhere near skilled unless I was able to study under some like Seki Sensei. While there is much to be said for practice and dedication, a life of dedication to both will never compare to a life of dedication to both under the supervision of someone who has already given his life and dedication to such.
We likely will never meet, but should you see this, please tell Seki Sensei I said "Domo arigato gozaimashita" with a deep bow. And you, Shogo sanwa, should be proud of all your efforts in bringing these lessons and this knowledge to the rest of the world through this medium we call RUclips.
We all thank you both.
I would love to try Asayama Ichiden Ryū, but I live in Europe...
We are hoping to visit Europe someday, and do budo exchanges with dojos there, and hold seminars! But first, we need to achieve our goal!
@@letsasksekisensei I am that some of the other people in my dojo would-be very interested too.
God's luck in achieving your goal and I hope to see you one day in Europe.
Sensei i will make you proud
I wish there were 10 days in a week.Would make things so much more easier lol
this is awesome
I'm all in for helping to achieve the goal! Let's help to keep Seki Sensei's goal to grow the next generation for Asayama Ichiden Ryu! You can do anything if you put your mind to it!
目標達成のために全力で応援します! 浅山一伝流の次代を育てるという関先生の目標を、一緒に守りましょう! 本気でやればなんでもできる!
I saw that ZNKR seitei was created by a group, and one of the members of that group was from Asayama Ichiden Ryu. Is that individual recognized in Seki sensei's lineage?
Asayama Ichiden-ryu has many branches. Many of them changed the curriculum through the centuries. To my knowledge, Seki sensei represents the "main line" of the ryuha, which is (to my knowledge) is only avaible in Japan. Maybe that member you mentioned is part of a different line on AIR. You should ask that individual next time.
@@szentineltorony4745 I understand that every style of iai has multiple branches. That's why I am asking the question. As for asking the other person, this happened in 1969, so unless you have a time machine that I can borrow it's not possible.
@@Theorof Oh I see. As far as my knowledge goes, the creator of the Bujinkan studied AIR but only the taijutsu part interested him. I think the guy you met learned from him or one of his students. Is he Japanese?
@@szentineltorony4745 You are not following what I am saying. This a historical event. I wasn't even born when it happened. There was a representative from Asayama Ichiden Ryu who was a member of the group that created the ZNKR seitei, about 10 years after WW2.
@@Theorof Oh, I see now! Sorry. ^^'
The jodo dojo!
I definitely want to train in jodo
Here is subscriber no. 6660. Thank you for your wonderful videos!
Training 10 days a week sounds off but I believe you lol
10 days a week? What are the other three days called?
Did sensei attain his kendo, iaido, and jodo dan ranks under International Kendo Federation?
The All Japan Kendo Federation! 8th Dan in Iaido, 7th Dan in Jodo, and 5th Dan in Kendo!
@@letsasksekisensei
Thank you for the clarification.
Apparently AJKF is associated under IKF, which has national and regional association all over the world.
It's a very interesting story to hear of sensei's journey. He's explored katana practice quite deeply and broadly.
What does he think of cutting as you have demonstrated?
People that are into knives and sword fighting are so interesting to me. How can you be passionate about something you've never done? Like how many times in the 100 years did two people need to fight to the death with katanas? Probably never. It's as if these people are "masters" of being a modern pretend ninja.
10 days a week, that's Ling Ling level of practice
ten days a week?
💞🔥💞🔥💞🔥💞🔥
Hahahaha! He is also a master of time dilation! He trained ten days a week! 1:56
Ok so does Seki sensei have an apprentice?
1:55 ...10 days a week!??👀 That seems bit to much even for seki sensei! ^^ ..i guess he meant 10 days a month?
No, it’s just an exaggeration!
@@letsasksekisensei oh i see! wooshed right past me! ^^'
only Asians are capable of bending time in the pursuit of overachievement haha
10 days a week ? 0:00 how does that make sence?
It doesn't, that's how much training Seki sensei used to do!
anyway to learn it online?
Not yet! We hope to start it someday once we achieve our goal!
I fell in love with this Ryuha. Looking forward to learning this online. I've been watching the videos over and over.
👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
英会話を習おうかなと考えてしまいます。
Last exam is do something while osaki sensei 5 times random attack 🤣 with real sword
5:16 Such a badass picture✌
Konichi wa. Onamae wa Jamie Ellerbe desu. Douzo yoroshiku oneigai shimasu. Please forgive the informality of my request. I would like to have a conversation with you about joining the Asayama Ichiden Ryu. I would love to help spread Asayama Ichiden Ryu in the United States. I have a martial arts organization that I am the Executive Director of where I teach Daito Ryu. There is more but I'd like to speak with you privately about our background and Membership into your Ryuha. It would be a great honor to learn from Seki sensei. May I email you?
