The Heart of Kendo: A Comprehensive Introduction to the Philosophy and Practice of the Art of Sword

Quick Overview

"The martial arts, if taught correctly, are limitless journeys with no final destination. They are a way of life," writes martial arts master Darrell Craig in this practical and philosophical guide to kendo, the art of the sword. He begins with the basics: sitting, breathing, and the essential bow, or rei. He describes kendo equipment and its care, then progresses to some of the basic features of a kendo practice session: warm-up exercises, assuming the proper stance, grip, strikes, and positioning. Only then does he move on to the seven long-sword forms, or kata, that are the foundation of kendo practice.
