Why did this video start by introducing a traditional style cushion? Are we going to be showing you how to sit on the floor today? No. Believe it or not, there’s a technique to fight against a katana using this.
So today, Seki sensei, the 22nd headmaster of Kobudo Asayama Ichiden Ryu with 400 years of history, will introduce how to fight against a katana using a cushion, Sageo string, towel, and Haori kimono coat. You are not a samurai if you cannot fight without weapons. Samurai of the past knew how to fight with whatever was close at hand in case of emergencies. The last technique of fighting with a haori is especially interesting because we can see the practical application of Mutōdori (swordless sword fighting), so please watch this video until the end. By the way, tickets for the 3-day training camp in Japan held by Seki Sensei and Let’s ask Shogo are now on sale! Check out our Patreon page for more information!

▼Please support this channel through Ko-fi (a donation platform like Patreon)▼
The Kobudo Asayama Ichiden Ryu, of which Seki Sensei is the 22nd headmaster, was one of the most popular Ryuha styles during the Edo period. In our golden age, we had over 7,000 students nationwide. Today, we only have 100 students. Our dream is to revive the golden age of Asayama Ichiden Ryu while Seki Sensei is still the headmaster. We want future generations to remember Seki Sensei as the legendary Sōké who brought back the glory of our Ryuha.
Your donations will be used to cover Shogo’s travel expenses to visit the main dojo from Kyoto, YouTube video shooting costs, online lesson operation costs, and training camps in Japan and overseas.
