@@TheBudoAcademy you’re very welcome Sensei, I really enjoy your teaching and your channel. You are one of the best instructors I’ve seen on RUclips; I really appreciate how you break down the movements and explain the reasons why. Just curious, do you have a dojo in your style in the San Francisco Bay area? Domo Arigato!
@Wayward Ronin I'm afraid not. We are mostly northeast and Europe. We do have a very successful distance program if you are interested. And we are always looking for folks to start up study groups! Www.thebudoacademy.com
Sensei, I just want to thank you for presenting the finest details on this waza , over the years I have been making the waza work.. However as you pointed out the left foot has to OVERCOMPENSATE for the balance at the very last moment...I greatly appreciate your depth of knowledge and the humility of your teaching skills. I was taught to extend 1/3 of the blade as I raise to the on toes position, then as I complete the turn fully draw. I would love to hear your thoughts on this. I have always kept in mind that the sword doesn't always have to be drawn, just ready...
Thanks so much for your kind words. So (In my opinion) If you start to push that sword out before you complete your turn, your opponent will see the blade somewhat as you turn and could stop you by simply pushing on your left arm and stop you from completing your turn. Feel free to try this with a friend. Better off bringing the handle all the way around then start so now your hands are behind that triangle. That being said, Different things are taught for different reasons. Always follow your teacher's lessons. Thanks again.
Thank you, I'm going to try that tip with the rear leg to the right shoulder - that could be the deciding factor of getting it down perfectly for me 😄 thank you sensei as always. 🙇♂
Absolutely clear and perfectly explained. Thanks you again Sensei
Thanks for the comment, appreciate it!
so simple and you think why didnt I think about doing that instead of struggling each time to line up. great tip ,thank you!
Excellent tutorial! Slow is smooth…. smooth is fast…. That’s my constant mantra while I practice all the martial arts that I study.
Thank you
