If you are an Iaido trainee, I bet you’d be thinking… “Yeah, using the katana with one hand would be useful when you do the Nukitsuke right?” Of course, that is one important technique. But if you learn the skills of Asayama Ichiden Ryu, you will find that there is much more to learn from just this simple action. So today, we will introduce 4 Kata from Asayama Ichiden Ryu which you can learn the 3 biggest strengths of handling the katana with one hand. By learning these basic but very important skills, you will be able to deepen your understanding of how our Ryuha’s Kata work. If you are interested in training Kobudo, this is a must-watch video for you. The final Kata especially includes a hidden technique that goes against the common belief of Japanese budo, so I hope you watch till the end to find out! *The content of our videos is based on the teachings of Asayama Ichiden Ryu and personal studies/experience There is no intention of denying other Ryuha styles, theories, and cultural aspects ▼Join the Online Kobudo Training with Seki Sensei▼ Interested in taking lessons directly from the 22nd headmaster of Kobudo Asayama Ichiden Ryu, Seki sensei?
