Ryushin Jigen Ryu Kihon April 2008 Kameido Katori Jinja

That's pretty cool. I was kind of spacing out at first and didn't find it impressive at first but then I saw the video wasn't a demonstration of any kata(?) but a drill. A very cool and useful drill. The sword's just kind of end up where they need to be for each strike and block. Very simple, very nice. Thanks for this!

Students of water.. Relentless repetition, moving with momentum, coordination with the current. Well done.

mekugi do you practice Jigen Ryu??

[mekugi]

No. I have some friends that do though...

[FredDude27]

What are the sword-dudes saying? Are they counting out loud?

[mekugi]

Do...Men...etc.

[Seanuk]

that is such a good exercise to do for co-ordination, foot work and cardio! Love it!

[Gunyo]

The exercise is called Nagashi-ai. It's found in a couple of kenjutsu ryuha.
