Tom Roe Traditional Sword Form at the WKA Nationals 2009

Tom Roe performs a traditionally based katana form at the WKA Nationals. I love this form, and think it only needs some slight tweaking before it rocks the house at the World Championships next year.

@ihaterobbie123 I have studied martial arts for a little bit myself, I just thought you were hating on the video, because I see it all the time from sometimes specific martial arts practitioners that claim their technique is the best and all others fall short. My apologies. :)

@deguimerautube You don't understand, these sorts of displays aren't martial arts and they don't pretend to be. These are displays of "sword form", they are displays of dedication, physical ability and showmanship...so is dancing.

And don't stereotype martial artists while acting like an authority on the topic, it doesn't make you seem any better. Not all martial artists are like the wise old man you see in the movies so lower your expectation a bit, we have limits to our patience too.

@ihaterobbie123 You're not a martial artists; martial artists don't talk like that about theirs or other arts. Good night.

@deguimerautube I'm a martial artist, it's a dance.

@ihaterobbie123 It isn't a dance, it is a segment of moves demonstrating strikes from various positions and scenarios. Good job, sir.
