Toru-san, you choose well having Jessica-san as your Kyudo instructor. She is a very serious and dedicated Kyudo practitioner. She is a great ambassador for the sport. This was fun to watch.

Toru, you will definitely master the way of the bow, thank your sensei! 😉
I used to play bow in my country long before, one of the things that I remember of my archer instructor teachings is when he told me: aim at the target where it will be, not at where it is now" it helped me a lot to progress. Superb video as ever, also great archery skills Toru-san and Jessica master. P.S. Btw, I was so surprised to appraise that the Kyûdo bow, is 3 times over the size of a long bow one, it's fascinating.
