    This first the 's with one's own held vertical. Then the steps forward under the blades, suddenly turning the sword to present the blade's flank, causing the opponent's sword to slide upward.

  4. KARIGANE-NUKI 雁ケ音抜き
    This #battojutsu #technique is one of the fastest drawing forms. To achieve a quicker draw, it forfeits hitting the opponent; instead, the #sword is flipped directly into a #defensive position (kagami-uke 屈み受け - "tilted block"). To ensure that the opponent's sword does not pass underneath the #block, the battôjutsuka assumes a low, forward-inclined stance.

  8. and ?
    Yes, this works! We had a special Kids training group a while ago.
    The kids are from age 8 to 12. We used foam (the same like in ) instead of normal wooden / steel swords.
    Rules were of course not as strict as our normal training.
    But it was more action packed. 🤺

  17. How do you train ?

    Besides real 's, we also train with wooden swords. We combine them with fencing masks and protective gloves.

    Why not 's? That has multiple reasons. First are cheaper, easier to maintain and are closer to a real sword.

    We keep the price low so that more people can afford to participate in . Every type of protective gear is OK, as long as it gets the job done.

  19. Battôjutsu 抜刀術 is the art of drawing the long or short sword (katana 刀 or wakizashi 脇差) at lightning speed to anticipate an attack. In addition to drawing and defensive techniques, Battô trains above all an eye for detail, constant awareness of one's surroundings (zanshin 残心), the ability to assess people and situations (honseigan 本性眼), and a relaxed, open mind (kyoshin-heiki 虚心平気).

    In modern Battôjutsu, techniques (waza 技) are not only practiced as pure forms in empty space, but also applied in light or full contact training (with training weapons and appropriate protective equipment). Obstacles such as walls, pillars, stairs and passers-by are used, and improvised weapons such as thrown tea cups, overturned barrels or a small table thrown up with the foot are sometimes used.
