In our recent trainings we are covering the Shinden Fudo Ryu (Immovable Heart School) kata together with punching drills.

We started Monday (28th August) training with punching drills:
1. Zenpo tsuki (Fudo ken)
2. Jodan uke nagashi

After that, we covered next two techniques from Shinden Fudo Ryu:

雨龍     Uryū – rain dragon

雲雀     Unjaku (Hibari) – cloud sparrow

On Thursday training, we started with more punching drills:
1. Zenpo tsuki (Fudo ken)

In these punching drills, the focus is not in hitting the training pad as hard as you can,  but to keep the proper form and kamae while doing it (from Ichimonji no kamae to Ihen no kamae, keeping proper foot and knee alignment, head position).

Afterwards we did the next technique from Shinden Fudo Ryu:

雪耀     Setsuyaku – snow sparkle

On the last part of the training we looked at some Shuriken Jutsu, proper way to throw Bo Shuriken from different distances.
