Hempev, would you be able to upload the Tsue sho bo kata? Thank you very much!

[hempev]

@JTWebsites I have uploaded all of Shihan's kobudo videos that I have, and I have not heard of a kata by that name. I have only learned shushi no kon, but our handbook also lists:

cho un no kon,

sakugawa no kon,

tsuken no kon, and

shiishi no kon.

I think there are a couple others in our organization that higher dan learn.

Honestly, I haven't even learned Cho Un no Kon, but I do remember a sempai having to explain it the same way as Shushi no Kon (i.e. Mr Cho Un's "stick")

[Demibanzaa]

Shushi no Kon is named after a person right? And if so, is Cho un no Kon also named after a person?

[hempev]

@Demibanzaa I just realized no-one posted an answer to this - Cho Un translates to Morning Clouds, but it was probably a man's name, since a lot of Japanese family names can be translated into English words.

Hempev- What are your thoughs of bo size for a man 6'5". Should I stay with the standard 6' bo or look for a custom one a little longer?

[hempev]

While traditionally 6', even Shureido, the authority on Okinawan weapons, sells a 6'5" bo for taller people. Every little bit helps, as long as you have the height to wield it!

Yes, thats very kind of you to post those Bo videos. I don't have any Kobudo classes in my town, so your tutorials are priceless for me. Thank you.
