  • Ok thanks Keyboard Samurai, go back to bike racing games and let us appreciate this in peace.

  • Funny, my Sensei told us about this Video and the comments related to it today in the Dojo. And he could not believe how someone could say that a Hachi-Dan's cuts aren't what they should be coming from a person who is a lower grade. Especially when Yamazaki-san is the Chariman of ZNKR. Makes me laugh aswell to be honest.

  • Masterful!

  • His cuts are small for a good reason. When you get old and hit 8-dan, your joints aren't as mobile or flexible as they used to be. A 8-dan hanshi sensei told us once. You are all young, don't imitate me, make your cuts as big as you can. What you need to take from this is even though his cuts are small, his movements are precise, cuts are crisp, timing and intent is true.

  • This Iaido Hanshi 8th Dan Takashige Yamazaki?

  • @Hobbies 306: or maybe because after 2 days of training he told us all to be comfortable and relax.

  • @Hobbes306

    because they are long nose dudes with no understanding of Rei!!

  • Why every student isn't lined up, sitting in seiza, and devoting him their utmost attention is beyond me...

  • I have a sensei named "Sensei Scott Jordan"

  • I hear what Proton1 is talking about, before I saw who it was I had the same thoughts, but when I saw that it is Yamazaki Homare Sensei, I have to shut my mouth. He has made great contributions to Iaido in Japan and throughout the world...regardless of the his rank and ability.

    I participated in an iaido seminar a few months ago and Yamazaki sensei was the presenter. He actually spent a few minutes talking with me about the importance of spreading true iaido internationally. A great sensei

  • Powerul, dignified performance. Utsukushii!
