  • As for using Katana in Kata, sometimes they do, as i said Brave sods..

    BTW You can tell if its a real Katana or bokken by the presence or absence (as in this case) of a saya

  • Yes i know, in this video its bokken, that sure, but sometimes, when you are 7th dan i think (i don't remember) you can use katana!

    I don't do kata with a 8th dan, he just was the teacher! In paris last month we have got the visite of 17 8th dan. that was realy wonderfull. I've got actually the armor and i am 2nd kyu. And you ?

    Ho and all kata of kendo are call by the znkr : "kendo nihon kata" xD i don't know why.

  • haha it's a joke ?

    I practice kendo and i can tell you it's the first kendo nihon kata, i do it with 8th japanese dan so i think it's thrue...

    And when you 've got a high grade on kendo you can pass evalutation with a katana and not a bokken.

  • and what does he say ? please =)

  • you be scolded by the sensei if you even consider saying that the shinai isn't in anyway like the katana.

    The shinai doesn't only symbolize a katana. I hear one sensei say before if you consider the shinai not the same as a katana apparently you don't know how to use a shinai nor katana too.

    I was also taught that we can only be stronger if i treat it as real blade.

    Really, don't go into kendo if you really think the shinai isn't a sword. That had be bad manners

  • no problem at all. Kendo is for all ages

    There is same kids as small as 4 starting kendo. I even lose to a primary school kid when i first start kendo.

    I also know one pretty senior member, he even have kids as old as me and a career, he start around in his late thirties but he still is capable of training.

    It's just that you will see younger ppl and older ppl figthing style is very different. While most eight dan are even over 50, and even 70 years old ppl can fight. So any age can train

see all
