On my most recent visits to the JCCC, Tsumura Sensei has been teaching me how to strike men properly.
That might sound odd to you. After all, someone with a 5th dan should know how to do this already. And, of course, you’d be right in thinking that.
However, the reality is the way I’m striking men can improve, so I’m learning, and it’s awesome.
Depending where you are along your kendo journey, remember that what you’re doing now is going to evolve as you progress. Remember how your kendo used to be? Dig out some old videos of yourself and watch them. You’ll see.
No matter how good you think your technique is, it can always improve in some way.
