If you train Iai or Kenjutsu, I’m sure you do Suburi practice swinging at the beginning of every training or at home.
So today, Seki sensei, the 22nd headmaster of Kobudo Asayama Ichiden Ryu will be teaching us the correct way Suburi should be done, and the 5 most typical mistakes trainees make. In the last half of the video, he will introduce a unique method to check if your swing is accurate, so please watch till the end to learn how to do it.

Thank you for the video. I would struggle with this exercise too. I'm sometimes too impatient 🤣 I will take some time with this towel-exercise if only to work on my patients. I think a bad swing is less of a problem (in this time) than being too impatient. It would not effect your everyday life, but a lack of patient, would.

Thank you and Seki Sensei for this lesson. I have learned all new dynamics as to how to use my hands during a cut, not just with a two handed sword, but also I learned more about the mechanics of even using a single handed sword I had never previously considered. I am beyond excited to keep working to learn and apply these techniques in my cuts as before I had no clue how intricate hand movements and pressures were to a proper cut. This will undoubtably improve my cuts, general control, speed, and working towards that light feeling. This is solid advice for any cutting blade. Thank you!

I have long suspected that much of modern budo is partial teaching from broken traditions. I haven't been interested or trusting enough to consider learning in many years because of this, especially now when the internet has created a wave of charlatans. But what I see here has the flavor of reality. I was inclined to doubt at first, but this man has information that solves puzzles and connects the dots amazingly.

2:19 for one of the best cuts I've ever seen. I've been practicing Iai in the US for ~7yrs now. I've seen countless examples of very talented iadoka and naturally I'm biased towards technique that resembles that of my primary sensei. Seki Sesei's suburi and constant zanshin makes me feel like it's my first day in the dojo again. How little I know. How much more there is to learn.

I definitely needed this. I actually broke off the tip of a bokken on the ground the other day. It was training for narrow corridors, and I didn't have room to redirect the inertia to the side to bring it over my head again. I tend to overswing, and I've just been relying on inertia displacement to make up for it. Well, breaking the tip of my bokken taught me why that isn't useful as a basic fundamental. I have much to learn.

Most interesting. As a left-hander, one would think I would have an advantage in suburi, but I tended to over-compensate in my cuts until corrected by my Sensei! There is a Crowdfunder here in England for a laser system for analysing one's cuts, but the use of a towel seems a cheaper alternative!

My actual fight too.....coming from HEMA and being right handed. Also I started by Iaido and now I'm am training in a Kobudo and apparently the cutting isn't the same technique either... .Like you mentioned Shogo san, projecting the tip toward the target is the technique taught in Iaido and Battodo. But here Seiki Sensei showed the same technique for cutting than my Kobudo school. Even my Kesa giri are not clean and I keep bending my left wrist.....Practice Practice Practice!!! Thank you for sharing such a well explained body mechanics and the causes for our imperfect suburi. Really grateful Seki Sensei! 🙏

Even in Kendo in our dojo we use the tenegui for practice on occasion. Even for practice with the shinai. Although not a direct replacement for the Katana, we feel your strikes in Kendo should still embody the principles of cutting. Our dojo also practices Iaido and Jodo. So, perhaps we are more strict about this in Kendo than some schools. We feel its important to maintain the lineage of Kendo to it's roots of Kenjutsu where possible.
