@kimhj113 I'm japanese descendent, love your comment. My deeper respect and admiration for Korean people, we had just finished a seminar with both, korean and japanese Senseis, it was awesome, and after that we had a lunch together, japanese, koreans, and non asian people, all together, we create a wonderful bond.

Notice how Nam-sensei steps in, and how It causes a reaction from Ariga-sensei.

His chuushin(center), koshi(butt lol) helps his step in. With the step in, Nam-sensei is inducing seme (pressure) in Ariga-sensei's mind making him react unfavorably. This allows Nam-sensei to do alot of oji-waza and debana-waza.

Amazing how like stepping forward, something you do everyday can help your kendo.

So when you play kendo, try it yourself and see how your opponent reacts.

*Don't forget Ma-ai!
