#ShobukanInyoRyu #Battojutsu / #Kenjutsu explores two similar #guardStances in #martialArts: Chûdan no kamae and Seigan no kamae. #Chudan is a #defensive position, effective when stationary, while #Seigan is safer for moving around. Both positions are beginner-friendly and provide a sense of safety, but their extended blades limit offensive capabilities and can make practitioners vulnerable to binds and displacements. Most #kenjutsuka use Chûdan while standing still and Seigan while moving.

There are several options for #sparring and #freeFighting (#tachiuchi 太刀打ち) when it comes to #equipment.
With a classic #woodenSword (#bokken 木剣, #bokutô 木刀, #kigatana 木剣) and without #protectiveGear, #training at full speed is risky. Many traditional styles, like Tenshin-shôden-katori-shintô-ryû 天真正伝香取神道流, deliberately train at greater distance (maai 間合い) to be able to train without having to hold back or slow down./1

How do you train #swordfighting?
Besides real #Katana's, we also train with wooden swords. We combine them with fencing masks and protective gloves.
Why not #shinai's? That has multiple reasons. First #bokuto 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 #training. Every type of protective gear is OK, as long as it gets the job done.

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.

Hello there! Japanese swordfighting from germany has joined the #fediverse 😀
Instead of telling you with words what we are doing, why not showing it to you? We published a new video just a few minutes ago on our youtube channel (sorry for not using peer-tube yet)!
