  1. Nice to find someone who has done #SuioRyu #koryu at the startup workshop I was leading today in Lappeenranta! The workshop was using aikido principles but didn’t expect one of the guys would be into koryu. Completely random :)

  3. I like to write about budo. This about the stuff that's more fundamental than the basics.

    I should find an Alexander Technique teacher and find out how they teach this stuff.

  5. Is there anyone who does #iaido or #koryu #kenjutsu who would recognise the chiburi from this kata (#AikiToho by #aikido sensei #Nishio)?

    I’m not sure how well the hive mind on Mastodon will work but I’ve been looking for the answer for some time. Some charts list it as a chiburi from #SuioRyu while others don’t. High ranking people from Suio Ryu didn’t recognise it. A practitioner of Aiki Toho stated error in table. But I haven’t been able to link to any other school.

  7. @tuban_muzuru @paninid true, unfortunately.

    Furthermore, we can mock and jeer at Nietzsche for simplistic views, all we want, but it's true. Monsters won't fall to sweet, innocent people.

    To be able to kill a monster you must partake of the willingness to visit violence (not necessarily in physical sense, please notice that) that they have towards others.

    There is a form of sacrifice one must make, sometimes you need to put away the sweetest, best part of yourself in order to bring an end to true evil.

    The sword that kills is also the sword that allows life, but make no mistake, you are still taking a life. Wish more people heeded the simple, stark lessons of old #Koryu

  9. Always clean your training weapons wearing funny ramen print pajama pants.

  11. I am not saying I disregard traditional form, after all I started in #Koryu #sword, but the fucks I give about promotion and rank advancement, at this point, are best described when elevated to a irrational number. Meh.

  13. Sensei comes back with a *nice* silken bag.

    Out pops a beeeeeaaaauuutiful, full-sized #tachi. Heirloom from his family, late 1600s. Allegedly bathed in bodily fluids, more than once, during the late 1860s.

    No one wanted to approach closer than ten feet.

    He didn't even draw.

    I smiled.

  14. Halp.

    I fell into a rabbit hole of #Koryu videos.

  15. A book - I am being generous - came out, about Tenshin Sho[o]den Katori Shint[o]o Ryu (天真正伝香取神道流) in which the wonderboy translating subtitles as "Tenshinsho Den Katorishinto ryu" ::twitch:: .

    Well, fuckstick, originally the Katori Divine Decree School of [specific combat art contained into the canon of a #Koryu, such as TSKSR] (loosely translated) just became Sarah Palin level of word salad, on their hands.

    Eurgh.

  16. People criticise #Aikido for a lack of striking in it's curriculum.
    What they don't realise is that O'sensei's early students were already highly ranked yudansha in #Judo, #Karate, #Kendo and #koryu ryuha.
    He didn't need to teach how to punch, kick or grapple, because they already knew that.
    Instead he taught what they didn't know, 'takemusu aiki'.
    In those early days, Aikido didn't have a striking curriculum because it didn't need a striking curriculum.

  18. @mojala @rimmon1971 @karatejukka I'm actually on the #MartialArts Alliance #Discord server, where there are channels and people for many different martial arts. Including a #iaido / #kendo / #jodo one. Also #koryu #karate #aikido etc etc.

  20. Final score from Tendo-ryu class today: Sue 1, overhead light 0.

    That's one overhead light that will never threaten us again.
