@ShinobiNoTodai no problem ^^ oohh wow then lucky to have randomly come across your videos :)

[ShinobiNoTodai]

@nos0323 Well thanks very much! If your really interested in specifically battojutsu and iaido, there are many ryu that focus strictly on that - try looking some up on Wikipedia, and then search here for those videos. Thanks again for the comments.

what belt are you?? cause i just wanna make sure that i will be learning these basics from someone who has level 1 or higher black belt...

also in reading your other comment, it isnt "gambatte" its "ganbatte" N not M lol...just thought i would point that out

[ShinobiNoTodai]

@nos0323 Thank you for helping out with my Nihongo - still learning, lol. The teacher in the video is ranked Judan Kugyo Happo Biken (something like 10th degree - 5th level black belt); essentially the highest rank you can attain in our art (he's been training for almost 30 years. Also one of his Japanese teachers (Sameya Sensei) is from a Samurai family, and specializes in traditional weapons.

I'm a Sandan (3rd degree) black belt. So in short - you're learning from someone who is qualified. =)

@gwayo oohh i see, my apologies  >_<

@nos0323 actually, you can romanize the phrase either way fyi. i know, that seems weird considering how it's spelled in japanese, but it's fine b/c of how you say it with a correct accent, with the n before the ba. trust me, it's correct! ^_^ there are other words/phrases like this too.
