  • I have practiced a combined form of Japanese swordsmanship for most of my life and I'm still light years away from these guys in all areas. Maybe I'm just still young or my style is somehow inferior or diluted.

  • well this man has been training since a little before world war 2. if your style is legitimate then it is not inferior, just different. modern iaido/kendo are very good at their purposes, which is differnt then this school. this school was developed for the medieval battlefield.

  • Im a new student at KSR, and i would like to get in touch with katori students all over the world, im also studing japanese for a year , i practise every day i hope someday i could be like him, or at least be good at swordmanship because i love it, i hope that powder and guns dissapear someday too and honor sense could be restored.

    Thanks to everyone

  • You have to go to Chiba, it's near Tokyo. The shrine and dojo is there. You have to make a blood oath to the god of the shrine and swear an oath to uphold the principles, not talk about the secrets learned in the school, and to not cross swords with anyone without permission.
