ya shure,... on the otherhand iai has to be soft and slow, everything we can do slow we can do speeded up as well theoreticaly. Most of the time for me its the strugle to hold back, cause i now it will end up in a bad style just :-).
Every keiko is different, some times I´am satisfied, sometimes things are out of round, like preparing food :-)
What the heck was that on the Uke Nagashi at 3:26 ? I'm a MSR guy, but I don't recall seeing any MJER embu show it that way. Nice balance but rearing back on one foot ?
@rottunpunk interesting, at what angle is it avoiding a second cut? From biomechanics, rearing the shoulders back and balancing on one leg doesn't ultimately likely to be engaged in adding much to the actual power of the cut. It would be interesting to test that in full motion analysis setup. and how might change at non-stop speed. For us, the related kata, ryu-to is a two handed cut to a lower target- between the rib the hip bone.
@kbs1138 we have kaiwaza with a double cut, and in the past iwata sensei has done ukenagashi with only a slight lean back. Though it is not just a lean back. Think of corkscrewing the hips into the ground with the absorption of tekki's cut. then use that build up like a whip to throw his power back at him. so it goes round and down as well as backwards and forwards...???
As for avoiding the cut, it has been shown sometimes in bunkai that tekki would not standstill after the first failed cut but might try a horizontal nukitsuke straight afterwards. As such one dodges this by moving the body back.
In our waza the cut is to the neck or head , but as it is katate waza i see the neck as a more squidgy viable option. i hope this helps explain it. Sorry I am not senior enough to understand it fully.
Hmmmm. Generally looks good. But I would say zanshin and seme are weak? Hence the speed in one version and the flat appearance in the other. Just an observation, and perhaps something to think about.

i thought you are not supposed to show kaishaku.

This is Iwata sensei ha, don't judge it from a ZNKR Jikiden perspective, it's older style. Bit of a wobble on Tsuki Komi though.

Iwata sensei was still a member of the ZNKR...

I don't believe there's anything wrong with his technique - his demonstration is simply another variation/interpretation of the kata.

when doing ushiro it takes too much time to turn, so there is somthing wrong with the technic, but all in all i l like this vid, its ok :-)

@DonRubinjo this is an instructional video, it has to be slower for people to see

@kbs1138 the lean back is to gain the power for the one hand cut, it makes room for hara. also can be viewed ast avoiding a second cut from tekki.
Iwata sensei took the best points from 3 of his teachers into developing his ukenagashi

Good presentation. Sykes seems a bit overenthusiastic with his kirioroshi and ochiburi though..
