2:24 That‘s a really good point. Too much tension makes you stiff and slow.

Small habit changes can make a difference. I tend to be to tensioned as well. Since I started to focus on holding the shinai „right“ (high tension in pinky and ring finger, middle finger with tension and no tension at the same time, index finger and thumb relaxed -> same on both hands and the distribution of tension NEVER changes) I got faster and it‘s easier to keep the center. Sounds kind of oximoronic that less tension lets you keep the center more easily, but it works.

Anyway. Thank you for your really helpful videos.

'focus on moving the tip of sword, not moving sword' - this is gold. It took me years to learn how to control the shinai with 'left side of the body' but i struggled to explain it to beginners. May I ask to steal this quote from you? I'll tell them the source.
