Junan Taiso
Before a training session begins, the practitioners must warm up their
muscles. They use some common exercises like the well-known
"push-ups", "sit-up", etcetera and also certain less known exercises like
the "rolls" and "dives".
Taijutsu Demonstration
Instead of competition, Togakure Deshi (students) participate on
demonstrations. Such activities allows students to show off their
skills. The demonstrations are real life situations and some of the
techniques we would use to defend ourselves.
Happoikenjutsu Demonstration
There are certain real-life situations where the attacker has a weapon and
you have to defend yourself. Our students learns several ways to do
that against several kinds of weapons.
Kenjutsu Demonstration
Last but not least, we also practice the use of ancient weapons like the
well known katana. In the videos included, you will see a fight
choreography and an iaido (cutting) practice. The
cutting practice was performed by an 11 year old student.
