- Last month I participated in an iaido tournament. Before that, I took a video at the dojo to check my technique. I will point out problems and other issues as I watch it. I hope it will help everyone to deepen their understanding of Iaido.

Gamenate - After stabbing you opponent to the rear, you sword is in his body, right? So you must be incredibly strong to raise the kissaki up and to the left as you begin to turn 😳💪🏽 So keep the kissaki exactly where it is as you turn, applying hiki nuki with you hip rotation, and keep the sword in the midline (not out to the left) with a feeling of ‘wiping your brow’ with you left forearm as you turn around. Don’t separate your left index finger from your nakayubi as you perform noto!
Hello, I am also a member of the All Japan Kendo Federation, practicing Seitei Iai. We must have started at a similar time, I have also practiced 7 years, working on my 8th! Thank you for sharing your video, it gave me some things to work on as well. "...my sensei has corrected me on this many times..." yes, I know this feeling!!!! I am still working on many things. Lately, I have been trying not to shift my weight so much when I step/switch feet, but I still need to improve. My sensei will sometimes film us practicing together, and send it to us to watch. It is embarrassing to watch my mistakes, but it does help. Thank you again for sharing, let's keep training hard!
I know for myself (not a student of iaido yet, but having practiced several martial arts) so often I know what things should look like even when I am (as of yet) unable to execute correctly. Being able to look at yourself and be accountable to where you have errors - looking for reasons and not making excuses - is a remarkable skill. がんばって！
The video camera is a harsh master! I am not knowledgeable regarding Iaido but any martial art is about continuous sincere effort to improve. I think you are doing just fine.
Thank you shogo! I've been struggling with the way of the katana. In 2024 I've been working at home with your guidance and my style has got better. I need to work on a lot but you have make the sword do what I what to do. Thank you!!!
these two videos are really nice since the Iaido style is one that grabbed my attention the most but living in the states there's no sword school so mine is all self-taught but now I can practice the actual kata after seeing and hearing how they're supposed to be done correctly since I found your channel
Shogo. Your thoughts on what I would describe as a response to the famous Japanese proverb?
"A nail that stands is hammered down."
But not all fasteners are nails to be hammered down.
Some are screws, some are bolts, some are pegs.
If the same tool is used, the wood gets wrecked.
Excellent video Shogo sensei. Thank you for sharing
Focusing on principals always helps. ie; hands push, feet pull. If you push off you'll lose balance. Better to place your foot and draw your weight to that foot. There from old Koryu schools.
Would love to see a video where you go over different styles of chiburi/noto between different schools
Friends and analyzing ourself's with videos is very go to improve
vous avez l'air d'être une personne admirable et incroyable, vous faites des vidéos sur votre passion, et vous nous la partager, je vous en remercie énormément, c'est une chose que j'aime énormément le katana et l'histoire qui l'accompagne, et lorsque vous la racontez c'est d'une douceur et d'une vraie passion, continuez de faire ce que vous aimez !
I have the exact same problem with the tip after cutting always beeing a few centimeters below what it should be. I can totally relate to that. Let's make an effort together to fix this.
Amazing content sir! I wish we have katana martial arts here in the Philippines as well.
Sanpogiri - Although the teki to the front is the major threat, you must look at the first enemy your about cut to you right. Your metsuke is a little too short. Since this first cut is nukiuchi rather than nukitsuke, it must be strong. This is achieved by drawing the sword almost vertically and cutting down to kill you enemy. Also speed it up a bit. the other teki aren’t going to hang around for you to despatch his colleagues!
Thanks for sharing shogo ! You are most humble to showcast your own mistakes :) one thing I learned from filming myself with just one camera in front of me, is that you can tell whether the kissaki is low or not by looking at your hands. If the left hand is higher than the right then the kissaki has gone lower than the tsuba.
Hope that helps ^_^
You mentioned a textbook and I know you practice Eishin-ryuu, so I am VERY happy to say that I DO (did) TOO!!
In highschool a classmate gifted me with the Eishin-ryuu mokuroku (probably not a mokuroku) and I was over the moon.
Great vids as always man
Thank you. So interesting.
7th Kata 0:30

12th Kata 12:03
Nice Shogo! I think in katas like Soete Tsuki it is really important to try it with a partner to feel the distance since if we pull the leg back too soon in the first cut we will basically not cut anything ^^", also with the regular cuts, a partner with a stick hanging in front will be great because of ki-ken-tai-ichi, meaning - in the video it feels like your body and legs are moving way ahead of your sword, neglecting ki-ken-tai-ichi. but Iaido is a never-ending journey haha, hope to see you next year in the Munich competition :D
Awesome! Inspite of how low you rate your techniques, they all look beautiful. I would be happy to do them as well as you!
Thank you so much for being so kind 😊
@@LetsaskShogoThankyou for your response! I started to train in iaido about 2 years ago and a absolutely love it! I have a wonderful instructor who received her 4th dan this spring. There are 2 other students in my class. There is so much to learn! Occassionally we go to our sister school in New York City to receive extra instruction. Iaido is a truly beautiful and powerful art. I consider it a real privilege to have have access to such excellent instruction and to immerse myself in the truly beautiful culture it represents. It generates my highest regard for Japsnese culture and traditions. Thankyou for sharing your iaido journey with us!
Thanks for staying self critical. Once someone thinks that they know it all that's when their doomed. Keep laughing and loving life !❤🖖!!
In my short experience, when the vertical cuts are lower than parallel to the floor, most of the time we have to check our grip or if our left hand is going down enough to te right position while we cut. Sometimes, when it gets there but a bit to late, the sword goes a little down and bounces.
Either way, your Iaido looks find. Keep working on it.
very cool yours videos, thanks
Very cool video brother 😎
Thanks Shogo...
❤️
I liked the video, but I have trouble understanding some of the comments.
Thank you/
Cooll
It's like ballet with a deadly weapon
Sougiri (continued) You must have your back foot facing directly forward at all times. It’s a peculiarity of Iai compared with other Budo.
Very cool video! I started to practice Iaido (and Kendo) about 7-8 months ago here in Spain. Have to ask, you execute a noto with the blade pointing upwards, while we always sheathe with the blade pointing outwards and parallel to the floor, rotating both saya and sword when about 2/3 of the blade is inside the saya, so It ends up vertically oriented as you do. What about this difference? Is there a more correct way of doing it?
Do you know of any dojos in Japan welcoming to train foreigners in Iaido? Planning on visiting Japan very soon and would like to know if you have any recommendations.
I've seen that on your down thrust you're put to much strength on your right hand and the blade keeps going to the right need to relax your right hand a bit on that downwards thrust. But all and all a very nice display of sword work 👍.
Hi i'd like to ask some tips for katana maintenance.. I have a pracical katana (not sharp), that I haven't used for a while (some months) and when I usheath it, the katana looked like rusty (with some reddish/brown patches that aren't exactly rust) what should i do ?😬
(Sorry for the bad english, i'm not used to write in this language)
I already train in Iaido & Iaijutsu but still only using one swird , uchi gatana Edo Katana , but i want to learn full daisho(uchi gatana, wakazashii tanto tessen) naginatta yari/jo
I believe working on your wrist strength, would greatly improve your technique. Humbley submitted.
Can you please please please do a video critiquing Kill Bill? PLEAAAASSEEE!
Shogo san you are much better than me, I'm still a novice. However, if you are able to point out your own faults and know the correction maybe use the isometrics technique's used in other forms of martial arts to hone in your performance ?
If you have great Teppanyaki - then 11th Kata would be perfect; please get more Teppanyaki -. Or you could have had bad Ramen.... or should you have had more Sake?... try having more Sake....then 11th Kata would go great for you.
It’s easy to forget when we train that we are training to defend our lives. Whenever doing a kata one must ask oneself would that hurt a grown man if he was he was coming at me? 90% of the time we know what the outcome would be.
Strike the finishing blow not swing a stick around and fight with imaginary bad guys
What is the difference between hadajuban and nagajuban?
Hello Sogo I have been following you for a long time, I moved to Osaka about 2.5 months ago, my wife and two daughters came to Osaka with a spouse visa two weeks ago, we are currently learning Japanese at language school. we have difficulties in communicating in English in general. I need accountant lawyer support for the company board can you recommend anyone?
you know you should teach hafugo
Why do ppl somtimes sheath w blade flat? Like side sheathing?
Can you explain tsugaru dialect for me pls while your at it show me ur Hokkaido accent?
I don’t want be rude,but why were you holding your breath so bad at 1:36 .
I am just asking because I am not familiar with the katana and styles,but 1:36 actually picked my interest.
In Budo we call this Seme, it would be the tension/pressure that you are putting on your opponent, we cannot practice iaido with a face that does not match the tension of the combat. Iaido goes far beyond drawing the sword but rather its facial expressions, movements, postures and seme
my sensei allways told me(sandan iaido),technically ok but still not a kata.
Hello, wanted to ask a question. I've heard that native Japanese people are xenophobic, is it true? I think maybe it was like this in the past. but in today's modern world it is not like that anymore, right? I truly love Japan and I can't stand a negative thing being said by any source. is it true?
