Episode 164: Kōdansha and Katana

In this episode, I am sharing my thoughts on kōdansha learning iaido. The concept of kendo is to discipline the human character through the application of the principles of the katana (sword). 

I am sure this idea have been talked about. And the late Yoshihiko Inoue sensei was having his students do iaido when they became certain level. I think that is what I read somewhere a long time ago.

What do you think about the idea?

  1. Good podcast. Robert Stroud Sensei stresses that Iaido and Kendo are 2 wheels of the same cart. Similar to Itto and Nito both being kendo.
