Stronger, Faster, and More Efficient Kendo

[@Kendotips]

What is your goal for your kendo?

[@ianbrass9251]

I want to hit more straight when when striking men. Some might say I am using the right hand too much, but at the moment I believe it's that I pull the left hand to the right (under my left arm?) in the moment of the strike (tenouchi). I usually happens if I try to hit faster. Guess it's back to square one.

I want to swing the shinai without moving my head forward as I swing

[@djaxupjazz]

@@ianbrass9251 actually not a bad thing, if you mean your left thumb/hand hits your right lower arm when doing teno-uchi?

Thank you, sensei!

The tips are very practical and make sense. No doubt IRL you're a very good kendo instructor.

Don't know why I didn't saw this video before. But the first advice is something that I'm working on rn. In the last godogeiko I was in, few sempai told me that my shinai movement was to big and I was giving up my intention and leaving room for my opponent to hit me.

The important point is that now you are more aware of your Kendo. That’s all that matters!!! Keep getting better.
