I honestly think Kendo would be massively elevated if they allowed sweeps and this sort of technique in the matches. The bit that is the hardest to understand and the most dull to watch is when both fighters close and lock their shinai, then just stand screaming at each other until they gradually separate. It's like people use it as a way to rest or think about what they want to do, which slows the action down. If you weren't safe up close and could be thrown or tripped and then struck, I think it would become a far more dynamic sport that is more enjoyable to watch, but also has more layers of tactical depth.
@@langying I saw something that stated it is still used in "police" kendo, where you have submission holds, ground and pound, etc. in the kendo repertoire. Seems more intense that you have to consider protecting the entire body as leg strikes are allowed.
If i recall it right in the history of kendo this and more techniques used to be allowed and it was closer to a real sword fight, over time it got simplified and sportified to something that's in the middle of classical sword fighting like hema and kenjutsu and sport fencing which is completely a touching game.
The latest Kendō-rules revision states that once you lock your Shinai with your opponent and are face to face, then you just separate and continue the match. At least in Europe we do it like that now, not screaming and forcing both Tsukas against each other
Jūjutsu is still practical to this day. Every modern combat art uses Jūjutsu as a base. Or practice a modern form of Jūjutsu. And sports martial arts like Judo or BJJ wouldn’t exist if it wasn’t for Japanese Jūjutsu.
Kumiuchi was a part of old kendo and Gekiken. Still you see at least some of the footsweeps in some tournaments, especially the policeforce shiai. And in competition of someone runs into you and keeps a very high center of gravity by jumping too much, you can still shove him a2ay and overpower him, but is dangerous, because most they land on the back of their head
Heights are certainly different in Korea compared to the US. I'd have guessed the tall guy is close to 190cm, but he's barely taller than me. I'm close to average here.
Literally, the idea that you are going to dodge a sword is just nonsense, esp with a real blade, noone would try and attempt to dodge a real blade because the cons heavily outweigh the pros
@@abc6568 well if youve got something you can parry it with, parry it, if you cant parry it try and dodge but never try and grab it because that will never work. There are different kinds of dodging, dodging with the intentiont of trying to move away from the opponent probably has a higher chance of succeeding than a dodge that is meant to stay close
Katana grappling! Thank you very much.

That stuff exists in classical kenjutsu. I think it's just a matter of looking back, like HEMA does

Kenjutsu and Kendo came from different origins. Kendo has always been a game, originally played by farmers for entertainment.
These guys always seem to having a great time! Good stuff.

Same for hapkido. Our roots are in aikijujutsu!
Thank you all for the video 👍🏻
Very cool, I like that you pressure tested the technique. Great video as always.

It's more like you are disarming the weapon of your opponent. Nice CQC!!!
shiho nage against a sword looks completly different, wow.
That looked really fun 😂

Молодцы! Так держать! И нафиг критиканов )
Kendo MMA would be really cool.

So in the training they are using Aikido?

Remind me to Kamiya katshinryu in Kenshin manga
You mean Ju 'jit'su right?
Stupid, 柔術 is written as jujutsu in English.
大東流合気柔術=Daito ryu aiki jujutsu

@@sexmusichandle what's the better alternative when someone else is striking you? Let it hit you or?

even miyamoto musashi using longer stick to win battle, abuse the range. That the key to win
