  • Oh man this would be so useful to learn, I constantly get in swordfights on the street and even though I happen to carry around a 5ft samurai sword, I don't know how to properly use it!

    Thank god for Kenjutsu...

  • @BlindPacemaker hehe why don't you try catching one of those guys on the street (best without their Bokken / Katana or they will literally rape your ass) and let see how it turn out. Wish you luck!

  • @Kenzaki1010 Without that stick? You say that as if they walk around with a big 6ft stick constantly lol

    What makes you think these guys can fight? I'm not saying they can't, but they are learning how to hit people with sticks, not how to fist fight... Typical crappy traditional stuff that has no real world application anymore except to inflate the ego's of those who practise it.

  • @BlindPacemaker:I will keep this short, because it is meaningless if I can really show it to you, Kenjutsu is the martial art in which you use Bokken, Katana or stuff that shape like that (it could be a stick that just as long as your forearm) to hit people. However, if they encounter a fight without anything like that, they can incorporate the motion and footwork into the fight which called "sword hand". Like I said this argument is pointless since I can't show you stuff. So think how you like.

  • @Kenzaki1010 totaly agree with u that the Kenjutsu movements can be used in self defence.

  • @BlindPacemaker Well learning to swing a tennis racket isn't exactly going to help you defend yourself on the street either. Some things are learned for fun.

  • is there a place where i can learn this in new jersey? tell me i like the whole honor thing and ive had experiance with the code of honor and the sword i am ready to fight even if i near dieing doing this training

  • Bad form. I keep seeing the defender putting his edge against his opponents edge; always a bad idea. Driving the thinnest, most brittle part of your sword into an oncoming force? You are going to damage your sword. This is a problem in western arts, but an even bigger problem with Katana. Because the edge is hard and the spine is soft, the edge will shatter and the spine will bend.

  • @tubetubetube i actally learn kenjutsu moron.

    and i do it much faster.

  • Muy lindo el estilo de kenjutsu que practican ustedes.

    Desde Argentina, les habla otro practicante de kenjutsu :)

  • i want to learn kenjustu

  • @twitch17100 Me too u.u

  • ¿Recomendaciones para un dojo en Barcelona?

  • come on to the freestyle bokken from bokutoone

  • Como en toda arte marcial no es necesario tener conocimiento previo.

  • tengo una duda ¿es nesesario tener conocimientos previos de artes marciales para aprender kenjustsu?

  • Excelente.

  • Awsome

  • Awesome! Thank you for sharing your art to us. Hai Domo!!!

  • Gracias a ustedes por el interes. Domou Arigatou.

  • dont mean to be rude but this is lame. ther doing it slow and as if they know what moves gunna be. i wanna see real fight with wood were they actaly attack non stop not attack then walk back thats just bs. i saw a tornoment nd they basicly did this but in tornoment ring. slow lamepridicitible

  • I don't know if you, "downbelow" guys, can talk spanish, but it was CLEAR that it was a video of TRAINING CLASSES OF KENJUTSU (Kenjutsu Applications) in the description of the video: "Práctica de Kenjutsu" = Kenjutsu Training. It's not lame, it was really a training, nothing more. ; )

  • This is a training drill and is supposed to be executed slowly. And it doesn't much matter if the moves are slow or fast. You learn things slowly to begin with anyway, if you do it right, and then the speed comes later. Honestly, their technique is pretty good, and it's interesting to watch. Now, whether you like this style or not is fine, but don't assume that just because they're moving slowly now doesn't mean they can't move quickly later.

  • @LashikoGen

    Lol at ninja wanabe. The real stuff is no as cool as in your fantasy?..

  • Cant find anything about "Batodo" either, exept "Battodo", and as I see, its only sword training. Sasmiko is full of shit and is prob training a home made martial art where his teacher says "awmagawd w3r da r34l sh1et!"

  • this is intresting.....ive started taking my sensais adult class lately, and we had practiced with sword....the second time i had a weapons session we practiced this (just the first routine)......i really dont know what you would call it, i guess its sort of like one point sparring, but ya its just weird i coincidentaly found this right after.

  • thats´obviously kenjutsu not kendo - thats different ....

  • no not that much... Have seen alot of kendo fights in real lief actually, it's exactly the same thing. Short boring fights where the swordsmen just run around in circles trying to stay as far away from each other as possible then they poke each others with their sticks and then its over.. nothing at all like real samurai art. that not fencing, thats poking and running

  • what i don't understand is why you insult a true type of fighting when you can't even do it and then name an unheard of type and claim it's better. You haven't put up any "batodo" videos so you can't prove your point so shhhhhhhh you're worthless

  • haha you call that fighting? Yeah sure okey! And that you haven't heard of batodo just proves that you do not know anything about the true samurai arts. And yeah sure, I can put some batodo videos, why not! And you shall not claim that sombody is worthless that you haven't seen fight! Don't underestimate your opoonant, first samurai rule!

  • omg, i type in batado on search bar since i really havnt heard of it....(i dont know every art of sword their is, ok) and one of the first videos i see is the exact thing as this. a simple exercise with two people practicing strikes........your refusal to be open minded to learn other arts that could improve your fighting with the sword makes you so damn ignorant that its pathetic.

  • Haha I don't care what some youtube video says about it, it was probably basics too. what I hate about kendo and such is that when they have their championchips and shit it looks SO LAME! Not like that in batodo, try it on in real life if you want before you judge it :)

  • sorry, I forgot to add something: kendo is the (simplified) way of fighting with the sword, iaido is the way of stricking while drawing the sword, battodo is the way of cutting with the sword. battodo is basicaly cuts, no combat.

  • No? The art is called batodo... It's not just cuts. It has it all. It's combat with a sword with one hand, with sword and sheild, with a two handed sword, with two swords, with one knife/ two knifes, with nontjackas (or how the hell that is spelled) spears and axes! It has both atacking and defending!

  • this isn't personnal, it's just the "first samurai rule" thing you said kind of struck me... something that would come closer to a "first samurai rule" status would be respect and/or self control, which your comment slightly lacks.

    that said, I'd like to see a few videos of batodo. are you good at it?

  • Okey.. Well yeah respect is an important factor and your right.. I should not talk like that about the art you love. Im sorry.

    Yes i've been doing it for like 4-5 years, so im pretty good, still an aprentice though. My friend Eric is a samurai master, he has been doing it for 10 years, and hes brothers for eaven longer. We can put up some videos !

  • you suck

  • i wonder what real art are you doing if you can't distinguish kendou and kenjutsu...

  • what does that matter? I dont do kendo or kenjutusu how would I know how they look then?

  • The man near the camera has his sword goes too deep behind his back. That's a mistake.

  • @kamezodo1 lol, i just started kenjutsu today, and my sensei told me this is a huge NO before we did the kata

  • I understand that it's proper technique, but it seems like there's still a lot of unnecessary movement; going into a high guard when a possible attack opening shows itself for example. Oh well, I don't really know much about kenjutsu since I'm only self taught. As a matter of fact, ignore this comment.

  • no... I agree.. I am a Batodo student (batodo is the REAL samurai art) and kenjutsu is just a lot of unnasacsery movements.. batodo is nothing like this... batodo is .. usefull... alive... not that stiff.. it's moves that really works.

  • @Sasmiko Batodo A samurai art but there are many other, Kenjutsu looks rigid because the practioner may be wearing armor it. where as iaijutsu or batodo is meant to be preformed with or without it armor. as for kendo it can be a sport or an art.

  • Impressive. Wich Ryuha is it?

  • Personal interpretation of the Bokken Eishin ryu. Eishin ryu kenjutsu. Thank you for your comment.

  • Eishin Ryu so. Perfect! Keep up the good work :)
