Nito Kendo Laboratory @ Silicon Valley "二刀剣道研究所"
Welcome to my KZread channel !!
Let's explore the unique and dynamic world of two-sword Kendo.
This channel provides valuable Kendo insights and tutorials tailored for both beginners and advanced practitioners, not only two-sword but also one-sword, since the principles of the sword are same on both Itto (one-sword) and Nito (two-sword).
Even if you have never tried Nito Kendo before, these videos will help you learn and improve your skills. I present complex techniques and concepts in a simple and entertaining manner, ensuring that beginners can easily follow along.
Although there are many valuable Kendo resources in Japan, such as books and KZread videos, they are mostly in Japanese, which can be challenging for international practitioners to understand.
With over 20 years of experience in Kendo, I break down these resources and share my own tips and experiences in English, making them accessible to a global audience.

Great ideas about kendo!
I hear that there are only 12 people who have 7-Dan title with Nito style in Japan. One of them is Fukutomi sensei in Kanagawa Japan.
Thank you for this amazing videos. Very informative
Thanks 😊
Very insightful arigatoo!
Arigato for your comment 😉👍
Thank you for a great video, I really enjoyed it. Where did you buy your favorite bokuto?
Thanks for your comment 😊 I believe any budougu shop you can buy or google it by "kiri bokken" . If your Kendo Federation has local kendo supply, you can order it 😉
Thank you.
Thanks 😊
It is only empiric without basic theory. Motor unit recruitment & Henneman’s size principle gives the answers.
Thanks for your physics. Yes, you can follow motor unit recruitment & henneman’s size principle for your choice :-) This is just an example from my experience to share as one of idea.
Physicist here. Loved your video and how you approached the torque as a way to explain how to hit with the shinai. However, I have to make a small annotation to you fantastic explanation. Torque, as it is the product of 2 magnitudes, means that, for an equal torque, the shorter it is one of those magnitudes, the higher it must be the other. e.g. Let's suppose a toque of 1 N·m, with r=1m and F=1N. If I make my bar shorter (r=0.5m), the strength I must use to rotate the bar must increase by the same magnitude so for r=0.5m, F=2N. That's why it's easier to screw a nut the longer the key is, why it's easier to move out a sword by its tip insted of by its guard and by the doorknow is at the opposite side of the axis of rotation. I explain this because, in 2:14, you say "the shorter the distance from the axis of rotation, the less force is required", which is quite the opposite. Except for that point, your explanation, is certainly true when you talk about the center of mass (CM) and how to move the saber. When you use the CM as you axis, given that the distance from your hand to said axis is bigger, the force needed to make the movement is lower. You can also say that when striking one is aided by gravity, but that's something for those who love physics.
Thanks for your detailed input and correction for me 😉👍 I need to re-study physics 😅
Seeing you do nito is soo motivational!
😤👊🤜👍😁
OMG what an incredibly nice video! I have practiced kendo for over 8 years and watch hundreds of kendo guide videos, and this is the one that explain fumikomi most clearly. Thank you for this video!
Thanks for your comment 😊 hope everybody can do Fumikomi easily and correctly witn fun 😁
審査で相手が二刀だと嫌ですね。私は一級の審査の時相手が上段でした。その時と同じくらいの衝撃でしょうね。私は二刀流に対して通常上段を取るので審査の時は中段で通したいのでもし相手が二刀流だったら本当にどうしましょう。因みに私は普段試合の時では中段と上段をスイッチしてやってます。
ほぉ~ 😲1級審査のお相手が上段の方でしたか。スゴいですね、級審査ですでに上段をとる方がいらっしゃるとは😳
@@NitoKendoLab 40年以上前の話ですけどね。当時の私はかなりあせってました。というのを今でも覚えてます。
素晴らしい試合でしたね。個人戦に同じ様に出来なかったのが残念です。いつの日かお手合わせいただけると良いですね。
ありがとうございます。この試合では色々な学びを得ることができました。特に日本剣道形で言われる「先の気位で進み」を体感できたのではと、今振り替えるとそう感じざるを得ません。機会がありましたら、ぜひお願いします。どこかで見かけたら、遠慮なくお声かけ下さい😁
@@NitoKendoLab SCKOは先生の所属してる方ですか?去年の全米大会でSCKOの番地先生と有賀先生と対戦いたしました。
私はNCKFです。SCKOの先生方とはまだ稽古や試合ができていませんので、機会が合えばぜひと思っております😊✨
@@NitoKendoLab 全米大会で会えると良いですね。
2年後ですね😃 気合い入れて精進致しマッスル😤💪😁👍
Thank you so much for sharing this, Sensei!
Thanks 😊
2:45 Don't strike by your hand, strike by your feet Don't strike by your feet, Strike by your hips
😁👌
Amazing Video. This will help me a lot to improve my kendo
Thanks 😊
Thank you very much sensei!!!
Thank you for your watching 👀 😉👍
👍👍!!
😊👌
thank you, i'll share it with my dojo friends, hope this could help us to improve our fumikomi! 🙏
Thanks 😊 Hope you and your friends kenshi will get the better Fumikomi 🤜👊👍
Thank you Dash Sensei! This is John Chu from Kippon!
Thanks for your comment 👍 please don't miss part.2 which is coming soon 😁
Thank you very much for sharing the knowledge sensei! I always find so many new and useful things from your suriashi drills!!
Thanks 😊 Please join the drill of footwork practice from the beginning. Then you don't need to watch KZread since I'm teaching it every Wednesday 😆😂🤣
@@NitoKendoLab Hai, sensei! I will try to go early this Wed!
Great informative video once again Arigatoo!
Thanks 😊 please check part.2 which is for actual practice how to do Fumikomi 🤜👊👍
At 0.15sec S hits D’s men, and at 0.16s D hits S’s men. S got the first men.
0.15 means 15seconds ?
Awesome Sensei. Thank you
Thanks for your watching 😁👍
Thankyou for breaking tenouchi and kamae down sensei! I have struggled trying to understand this idea forever.
Thanks for your watching and comment 😊👍
コメント失礼します。 小太刀での切り返しを行われていますが、小太刀での打突も有効になりうるのでしょうか?よろしければ返信いただけると幸いです。
はい、全剣連が定めた剣道試合・審判・運営要領の手引きには『小刀での打突が有効打突になるには、大刀で相手の大刀を制している場合で、打った方の肘がよく伸び、充分な打ちで条件を満たしていることを必要要件とする。但し、つば競り合いでの小刀の打突は原則として有効としない』とあります。 要は、大刀が使えない状態(例えば、相手の胴打ちを大刀で切り落としたり、相手の小手を大刀で制した時など)に小刀での打突が有効になります。 が、実際は試してもらえればわかりますが、かなり難しいです(;^_^A 小太刀の形 1本目のような肘がしっかりと伸び、有効打突の6条件を満たしていれば有効打突として1本になります。 二刀剣道の目指すべきは、右でも左でも、大刀でも小刀でも、一刀でも二刀でも、どのような状態でも自由自在に操れる事で剣の理法を修練し、人間形成をはかる事です。 よって私は基本である切り返しを小刀でも行っています。
@@NitoKendoLab 返信ありがとうございます!! 引き技で小太刀が使えないとなると小太刀での有効打突は実戦ではあまり現実的では無いですかね。 二刀流対策参考にさせていただきます!ありがとうございました。
Very good explanation. Thank you.
Thanks 😊
Thank you very much for the video!
You are welcome 😁
Very good beginner friendly instructional video. Thank you.😎
Thanks for your comment 😉👍
thank you for the knowledge, i have question about nito kirikaeshi, how to do it correctly? it's heavy to do sayumen with one hand, should i do more weight exercise for my arm?
check some of his older video's it has a great demostration
It just takes lots of training to strengthen your shoulder and wrist. Hold it a bit higher on the tsuka if you struggle too much,you rather want to take care of yourself than overstrain yourself and get a wrist injury. (This happened to me) Are you asking specifically about technique or the sequence of kiri-kaeshi?
thanks so much for the video!
@@Koggelxander i'm asking about the correct form/movement for nito kirikaeshi
@@adhiwu As the guy above me mentioned go and watch Dash's Video on it but I will explain anyway. I do it this way: Okuri ashi footwork with daito hitting the 1st set of Men cuts. Ayumi ashi footwork with shoto doing the men cuts. Daito strikes last men , fumi komi with opposite foot. I hope this helps, if I didn't clearly enough please tell me. 😅
You're definitely that "kendo IT guy" 😁. I just started nito last year and your chanel is very helpful, thank you, i like it 👍.
Thanks 😊 Because I'm in Silicon Valley 😁
정말 훌륭한 강의입니다!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 감사합니다!!!!! 저도 오른손 이도입니다!!!!!
Thanks for your watching 👀 봐주셔서 감사합니다.
Thanks for the content, your videos are really useful. Could you please show us how to do Kirikaeshi as nito? Greetings from Chile
Thanks for your comment. I posted it before. You can check this out 😁 kzread.info0rm5GeEttsc?feature=share
I did some short video about striking theory. Also using scientific methods. I will keep your video, thanks for it. kzread.info/dash/bejne/oa11r9JmfZmoqcY.htmlsi=EvSUvmJOy8Gd0iMH
잘 배웠습니다. 저도 직접 제작해 보겠습니다. 영상 감사드립니다!!!!
Thanks 😊
😢
😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆 Anyway, I can resume with a totally new approach then 😉
he slided in everytine and weakness shown
very nice video with good observations. thank you very much for putting this online and sharing your findings. Helpful and valuable!
Thanks 😊
I agree that the mindset for a successful execution of kaeshi do, it is a sen-sen-no-sen, otherwise, the first defence move would be too late, and the subsequent do strike could not be executed because of poor timing and distance is getting too close.
Thanks for your comment 😉✨️
Thanks for your video and explanation, I like your video
Thanks 😊
The men-kaeshi-do was beautiful!
Thanks 😊
Dash先生、あの時の面返し胴は、実際に見ていてまさにお手本の様な見事な胴でした。私も先生の様に、日々精進いたします。😄
ありがとうございます。自分も動画編集してて、ホントに自分か?! と思う程うまく動けていてビックリしました🤣これが百発百中に出きるよう、更に精進を続けます🫡✨️
Thank you much for your video and experience you share with us.
Thanks 😊
私も少し前までそうでしたが、左足で引っ張って身体を前に持って行こうとしているので、膝が上にあがってしまい、そのまま重力で下に落ちるので、前方への体重移動ができていません。右足で床を押して身体(腰)を前に移動する感覚が掴めれば、息子さんと同じようにできるはずです。左足の踏み込みよりも、右足で押すことを意識してみてください。
ありがとうございます。コメント頂いた右と左が逆なのかな…と思いつつ、あ、左足前の構えについてのコメントかな?と読んでいて気付きました😃そうなんです、腰の移動をいかに床を押し込んで発動させるか、がキーポイントですよね。まだ感覚がつかめていないので、繰り返し練習中です😤
Brilliant.
Thanks 😊
Good improvement. Looks nice. Something I also need to work on. 😊
Thanks 😊
Very insightful, thank you. I will try this. 😊
Thanks 😊
昨日はお疲れ様でした。お声をかけさせてもらった福島です。昨日は名乗らず失礼しました。Dashさんのように私も頑張りたいと思います。😁
福島さん 声かけて頂きありがとうございました。Dコートで審判している時にBコートで正二刀の剣士を見つけ、目を細めて垂れを見たら、福島さんでしたね☺️ 後で話したいなぁ~と思っていましたが、防具外されていたので、何方が福島さんなのかわからずで諦めてしまいましたが🤣声をかけていただけて嬉しかったです😁次はぜひ稽古でご一緒できるといいですね。 残念ながら試合の動画を撮れなかったので、アップはできませんが、どんな試合か確認したかったです😳誰か先日行われたNorth vs South のチームマッチ動画撮った方がいらっしゃいましたら、ぜひ教えてください🙏
Dashさん、いつか一緒に稽古できることを期待しております。先日の動画おそらくですが、このチャンネルでアップされると思います。www.youtube.com/@dodorin7546 Dashさんが対戦した選手の動画はよくここにアップされています。 南カリフォルニアへ来たときは、ぜひうちの道場へ顔を出してください。(ISKD道場です。)😄
面の着装をもう少し研究した方がいいと思います。タコ面になってます。
ご指摘ありがとうございます😭✨稽古の後にたこ面防止の癖つけしてるんですが、防具入れに入れると形状記憶のように戻ってるみたいです🤣カッコいい面の着装、もっと研究します🫡
could you please make a tutorial for Hiki-Waza with Nito? Could do it with the short sword? Tks a lot! :D
Let me try 😉
😮 I'm here for all this thank you for sharing
Thanks for your watching 👀 😊
