- this video is an additional knowledge to practitioners of sword of all categories, from swordmanship, sword enthutiast, sword dancers even sword choreographers - these 7 components is what makes the Japanese Sword Art distinctively...well Japanese. Of course this isnt a hard truth depending on schools & katas, but generally as they say - the basic particularly for Modern sword art like Iaido is what we commonly find in most Katas. Whether you're a beginner or a longtime swordsmen. Wether we are fellow Budokas or even our fellow sword performers (i believe) understanding the fundamentals are beneficial of our chosen path. If nothing else this video is also a recorded material for me to review back from time to time throughout my journey. :)

What an excellent teaching style Sensei. Your teaching skills have grown exponentially with your IAI skills. Thank you for sharing this rare and special gift. You are a great source of knowledge.
🙏 thank you, but please I'm no sensei 🤭 just a humble fellow student or senpai 🤭🙏
@@NamazuRyuSaikenI am aware of that. A brother Iaidoka. I chose the term respectfully as you are already aware. I appreciate what you share senpai. I have learned by watching your post. Domo Senpai.
Enjoy your videos. Very slow, smooth and fluid movement. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you🙏 I need to get back to practicing more again
Thank you.
very inspirational and informative, very thank you, big lesson, i learn
Good video! Furikaburi is my favourite part of iaido practice. I never knew about it for a long time, then changed a lot. It gives a feeling in the sword of never ceasing to be sharp. Very satisfying addition to practice. Thanks for including it in the video.
That's awesome! apologies i dont know why RUclips didnt notify me of this comment, i just come across it!
Thank you for posting!
For drawing, my teacher focus me on pull back the saya back more that pulling the sword out. Pull the saya back swift enough and the sword is free, then the right hand can initiate attack however direction as I want, combine both action for nukitsuke. The technique helps me so much I thought I should share.
Other than that, it's a really nice video with interesting tips. I learned a lot from this.
Your sensei isn't wrong either, many interpretations and styles depending what we do 🙂
Hello friend! Your work is absolutely amazing. Keep these videos! 👍
Thank you for your kind words traveller!
GREAT PERFORMED, DOMO !
There are actually forms that do not have any chiburi at all.
It's still not clear where the idea of it comes from anyways. While the most common conception is "to shake off blood", anyone who ever worked with blood would know this will hardly work.
There are theories it stems from a more spiritual idea, of shaking off the guilt of death or chiburi being about zanshin.
Because of that, some styles do not have it at all. Unfortunately, I forgot which ones.
Tatsumi Ryu, which I am a member of, does not have chiburi in our Iai kata.
@@jwgoon Thank you
Very informative demo. I especially enjoyed the many practical pointers.
But you could lower the volume of the sound track as it competes with narrator.
Thanks for the feedback! I'll work on an update video in the future !
Very nice brother
Thanks! its a little outdated - i might want to remake this video of the same topic haha
Beautiful
Thank you!
Good explanations, please keep the videos coming. Arigato Gozaimashta
Thank you🙏 I'll try my best
Excelente Sensei Domo
Thank you 🙏
4:35, swordfriend you may enjoy reading the book by Nakamura Taisaburo called "The Spirit of the Sword".
Challenging book, as you would understand upon reading, though very beneficial when it's time to make kata into tameshigiri.
Thanks for the video, very well presented.
Thanks for the tips!
this is so so so helpful i really appreciate these videos !! i just recently got into iaido and this is by far my favorite channel
Thank you 😄 i try my best. Please do follow what your dojo and sensei teaches i try to be as generalized as i can
@@NamazuRyuSaiken hopefully i can find a dojo to teach me some in person skills, that would be such a fun time
@@Evan-yl8vy i understand fully, ive went through that for many years until just good timing and luck a dojo started teaching with a reputable sensei came. But life doesnt always go as planned and now its up to me to train as much its available 🙂
@@NamazuRyuSaiken thank you for the kind words it truly put a smile on my face ! I hope your weekend goes well and stay safe :))
@@Evan-yl8vy no problem :) i think other people's opinions about whats right and wrong are reflections of their own journey - they arent sure themself so they may project it to others who isnt fortunate enough to have actual guidance - thats how i see it atleast, the real path is to just keep training with whatever that is available within your means

Thank you
Namazu senpai what is the proper way to say in Japanese the 7 fundamental’s of Iaido?
Errr...I don't know honestly - this is just a general breakdown - there are more steps depending on different katas
i want to get into iaido, but i can't afford to go to a dojo and get trained. is it possible for me to at least practice at home for a bit to grasp the basics and learn the generalized fundamentals online? i did taekwondo up until the black belt, but have gotten interested in swordsmanship and kenjutsu as i've gotten older. thanks for making these nice videos!
My humble opinion, it is always best to have a teacher to guide you through the details, but of course if it's no accessible anything else like videos or texts must be viewed as references.
You may learn from the references first of course and to further your journey, you will see the huge differences in self taught and an actual teacher guiding you.
So to me I always encourage to learn as much as you can, and when one day there is access to an actual teacher - it can take your journey much much further.
Hope this helps 🙏 I was once an anime reference swords person 🤭 so yes I know how it's like to have no access to proper dojo before
@@NamazuRyuSaiken ah, i see! thanks for the reply 😳 keep up the good work, senpai
