When you imagine a fight with a katana, you would probably imagine swinging the blade. But depending on the situation, you could actually use your legs too to kick or step on the opponent or their katana.
So today, Seki sensei, the 22nd headmaster of Asayama Ichiden Ryu with 400 years of history, will introduce to us 4 Kata which includes techniques of stepping on the opponent. Not only katana techniques, but there are also sickle and Mutō no sword techniques, so please watch this video until the end to learn about them all.
*The content of our videos is based on the teachings of Asayama Ichiden Ryu and personal studies/experience | There is no intention of denying other Ryuha styles, theories, and cultural aspects

The management (filming, editing, etc.) of this new Asayama Ichiden Ryu’s English Channel “Let’s ask Seki Sensei“ is completely Shogo’s voluntary work. If he is not able to pay for the expensive bullet train fare from Kyoto to Ibaraki Prefecture (where the main Dojo is located), and hotel/filming expenses, this activity will cease. Please help us spread and preserve this 400-year-old martial art. In return, we will try our best to create the most educational and exciting content about Japanese Kobudo.

▼Seki sensei’s Ultimate Dream▼
“To revive the golden age of Asayama Ichiden Ryu with 7,000 students nationwide“
Asayama Ichiden Ryu was once the number one Ryuha in Japan during the Edo period (1603~1868), with more than 7,000 students throughout the country. Seki Sensei hopes to restore as much of the glory of this era as possible while he himself is the 22nd headmaster. Please help and support us in this endeavor.
