Bokken training for Seniors

We have finally reached to the level we use our bokken for solo kihon and partner kihon and of course Moving kihon as well.

I guess for some of us it is like using the choken for the first time, we are scared of our bokken of getting damaged. Although I only know one person in my batch who is like that. This is actually very bad because you will hesistate to get your bokken hit. This means that your attacks will be slow and you are trying to minimise the damage on your bokken. Therefore, you will not strike hard and you will not block or defend properly either. This is very bad for you. So please please do not think about your bokken being scratched. In a real fight your expensive sword wll also be risk on being hit. So we have to start now.


Remember to keep your balance.
