I’d go so far as saying - and I may have written about it before - it is useful to deemphasise fumikomi in favour of fumikiri when teaching (at any level). Fumikomi is - like tenouchi - a natural by product of solid technical basics 😊

[@Kendotips]

100% agree I think often Fumikiri is ignored in favored of fumikomi and we tend to develop a much heavier footwork from that.

[@echopapacharlie]

It's amazing how well you articulated fumikomi and fumikiri. I pick up points about kendo footwork that I can work on. Thank you.

[@Kendotips]

Hi José, great video as always. I will try this out because I am struggling with fumikomi, especially when I am already holding the shinai.Can you please do a video on how to improve timing the strike with fumikomi? Thank you.

[@Kendotips]

Thank you for the suggestion I think this is a great topic I will work on it!

[@matrix12x]

Gracias por compartir el conocimiento adquirido durante tantos años en el kendo...

Un placer! Gracias por el apoyo!!!

[@Elfavzla]

Excelente el vídeo, José. Mil gracias. Yo tengo un problema gigante con esta cuestión del "core", de "atacar con tus caderas", la verdad es que no entiendo a qué se refieren, lo que entiendo es que hay que poner la fuerza en la pierna izquierda para poder impulsar todo tu cuerpo, no sé si es eso la verdad, en mi club siempre me lo dicen, pero es que no lo capto!!!

[@Kendotips]

Saludos, Gracias por el apoyo. En cuanto a tu problema. Tienes algun video que me envies y puedo darte mis observaciones. O tambien si tienes Discord o capas on Instagram te puedo mostrar algunos ejemplos que te puedan ayudar pero necesito hacerte unas preguntas para saber cual es el verdadero problema. Saludos!

[@alexanderjamesINC]

I really appreciate the teaching. I only have one suggestion. Could you please slow down yoir B roll examples so that when watching your explaination, we have more time to view the proper form?

[@Kendotips]

Thank you for your feedback I will for sure keep it more in mind for future videos! Also thank you very much for the support

[@el4138]

Could you provide more details about the variations in fumikiri and fumikomi techniques for small and long steps? I've noticed that Japanese kenshi often don't fully extend their leg during shorter steps. I'm curious about your perspective on how these differences feel. Thanks!

[@Kendotips]

Oh this is definately something I need to make a video about, but what do you mean by " the don't fully extend their leg" do you mean during Kamae? maybe send me a video of what you mean to make sure we are on the same page! Thank you for watchiing!

@@Kendotips My query specifically concerns the moment you initiate an attack. Please take a look at these videos with timestamps for reference. kzbin.info/www/bejne/r3XEnIp_jpmapaMsi=21Vvveg9AYpraRDJ&t=2m39s timestamp:2m39s kzbin.info/www/bejne/qoDLoKKwgtJpr9k timestamp:41s Fumikiri Technique During Small Steps How exactly is TAKENOCHI sensei's fumikiri executed during smaller steps? My understanding is that, unlike in larger steps in the later video, the foot isn't pushed out as much. Is the fumikiri in this case performed mainly through the thigh and glute muscles, with minimal foot involvement? Thanks for shedding light on these points!
