[KENDO FEEDBACK VIDEO] - Episode 22

In this video I give some Kendo advice to a viewer of the channel who sent me this footage of their Kendo practice.

Thank you so much for your feedback! I will definitely work more on hiki waza and eliminating that weird distance. I hope to see you next time at Mameido, it was such a great tournament.

Hey thx for the feedback! I'm the shiro player in the first fight and I must say it was very informative. Especially the part about the "new" rules and breaking the distance after tsuba-zeriai. I was not fully awarie od that then, and now It's much more clear. I really enjoyed the fight and now I know what oportunites i've missed 😉

Thank you. I learned a lot. Especially when Fisher Sensei discussed not staying too close, eg step back quicker. Actually this one is full of gems. And I now see what you mean by not using left leg, lower body, and when using upper body, this video was fantastic to see. Thank you so much to the 2nd Dan Kendoka!

Thank you so much Andy for the analysis, and to the kenshi on the video for sharing it. Very educational!
Andy, any plans to make a video focusing on the use of the lower body, lunging vs stepping, and exercises to improve those things specifically? Thank you!

Thanks for the feedback, in the second fight I'm a shiro, but also learned a lot from this video ;) A big thank you to my opponent!

Hi Andy. Any plans to do a video on opportunities for hiki waza with the new rules?
