It was a thrill watching Sugano Shihan's every move. How lucky it would be to have him as your Sensei. It was weird, however, to have the French guy translate Shihan's commentary for the hostess as if she couldn't understand what he said. They should have just let her explain what he said.

I really like the sheathing part, like how the sword is turned and twisted without even noticing it before going back to its sheathe.

So there is a french guy translating Japanese to a Japanese lady in English... ok!

I mainly practice karate and I use iaido for concentration, meditation and faster reflexes and I have noticed a TREMENDOUS difference in my karate kata and sparring
