Kendo Podcast
Talk about kendo just like over some coffee or beer
Thank you for sharing this explanation.
Back when i was a member of a dojo, i thought a motodachi’s purpose was just being a live mannequin/dummy, of course i was pretty mistaken and i understood that fact when i had to lead the practice after our sensei went back to his country.
Thanks for sharing.
You’re welcome! And thanks you for sharing your experience.
In kendo we cannot be passive, always active 🙂
you are not a member of a dojo anymore?
