Kuroda Tetsuzan 黒田鉄山 Kenjutsu Bujutsū

[SystemOfStrategy]

Sensei is teaching the 3rd Kenjutsu kata in this video. The kamae that is being used is Hassogamae in Komagawa kaishin ryu. Sensei is actually not moving fast, for him, in these videos. He will be teaching at my dojo in San Diego in June.

[Moonlightsmooth]

強い技から、体術で刀を動きます。

[fnagel]

Almost faster than the eye can see.

[sako2kai]

合気の技が入っていたね、1・15あたりやはり武術は繋がってる­

[SolidStick247]

1:54 the speed of light.

[HIRE2HACK]

Excellent! 

[BloodyCrAzYzzz]

Sick movement starts at 1:52... So damn fast...

[KITSUNEWAROSU]

日本の武術はやはり歩法が独特ですね、力で無く体で振る・・凡人­には無理です・・・

[superrazu2]

I replayed 1:54 longer than I watched the vid

[moondd5]

この妖怪じみた雰囲気は「合気」から来てるらしいですね。動きを­消す為のものらしい。

[moondd5]

後、柔術を極めた人ってこういう雰囲気になりますよね。誉めてる­んですが、少し妖怪じみた感じが・・・ぬらぬらした。なんででし­ょうか？柔術の極意とは「陰」を極める事なのか？？？

[moondd5]

元々新陰流っぽいですね。燕飛じゃないんですか？この技。居想会­という所も似たような技やってましたが。

[ShadzukyMizuho]

At 1:52 I was just like "Shit, didn't seen that one coming O_O"

[dhx84]

I think the HEMA movement could stand to take a few pointers from this guy. Most people aren't used to honing their physical intuition and self-control to such fine polish.

[tonikukoc007]

1:54 lol

[OMFGHUGEWOLF]

i find his movements most interesting, very different then what i am typicaly use to seeing.

[Tcluenda1]

Le début est magnifique, il ma surpris, ne voyant au début aucun sabre, c'est rare de voir de belles vidéo comme celle-ci.

[patrik79a]

he seems like a really nice guy. Loved the section where sensei instructs the newbie...



[sheriffcrawls]

His speed and form are simply amazing

[wolfmaster555]

Kuroda is one of the greatest swordsmen i have ever seen

[sirbine0ab]

さすが鉄山先生だ......速すぎて見えない(^_^;)

[Kendoka34]

papatatedouces; they are holding their head or arm for a trap to opponent. I dont know the name of the ryu but this is a special kata againist something or someone.

[papetatedouces]

Is there a reason why Kuroda and his students are leaning exaggeratedly their head to the front?

I thought an important idea in martial arts was to keep your spine straight for your equilibrium, power and to keep an eye on your environment.

[ShaShaZane88]

Holy EFF!!...I didn't realize how fast this guy was until 1:57. I need to wear diapers when I watch this.

[deguimerautube]

@ShaShaZane88 you're right... very fast.

[Peekingduck]

Awesome man all around

[ronin2167]

Body isometrics.



[bourbakis]

1:57 cobra strike! amazing stuff. thx.

[TenguMonk]

Thank you so much for sharing this! Kuroda Soke is amazing! which video is this from?

[asimov231]

@TenguMonk Sadly I do not speak Japanese, so I do not know the name of the video, but it teaches sword katas of which one is featured here in this short cut of the video. All rights belong to Master Kuroda but I thought it would benefit many to see his technical excellence and fluent mastery.

[systematicrazy]

I have this DVD.

This clip is from

"kurodatetsuzan no katagamichibiku choujigen　shintai no hou vol1 kentaihen [DVD]

long title ＾＾；

[NickTheVmaster]

@systematicrazy hey mate, just wondering, where did you buy it from? I can't seem to find it anywhere in shops or the internet. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[systematicrazy]

@NickTheVmaster

You can Buy "Kentaihen" DVD in budovideos com

Search word is "Tetsuzan Kuroda 11: Training Kata Vol 1 DVD"

[NickTheVmaster]

@systematicrazy cheers man, you are a legend!

[dhx84]

@asimov231

Is Kuroda a particularly secretive teacher? Or is he more open? Is he prone to keeping "trade secrets?"

[CYM2407]

@dhx84 I've seen a lot of Kuroda Soke clips on youtube and on Kick Ass Moves. I would say that like a great many soke of kobudo, everything's right there in plain sight. The first "trick" is being able to understand what he's told you to do (even though he's done his best to tell you completely openly), and the second is in getting your body to do it. I think there's one or two study groups in USA, one in Paris, and of course the sohonbu dojo is in Japan.

[CYM2407]

@dhx84 I hope that this clip: Tetsuzan Kuroda: Taisabaki (Body Movements) will further illustrate my point.

[Cronsen]

Nice video!

Where comes it from?
