Hi Joe, those links above won't go to facebook, they'll just bring up the little video clips he posted to Instagram. You can watch them without logging in or anything, but I don't know how to embed them into the forum page.

Oh ya, there's a little icon in the bottom right corner of the video clip that will turn the sound on if you click it.
 
Thx Sam

Dan and that sword are both beasts

I started swinging a heavy boken tonight its been awhile

Welcome back to sword swinging. :D I'm way out of practice and need to get back into some basic drills, loosen up the ole' shoulders.
 
Did a bunch of Suburi tonight starting out with a nice moderately heavy bokken and going to a very heavy oak bokken

for the light bokken I really like cold steels polymer ones. By sliding the tsuba (guard) up and taping the handle I can close to my ideal sword length which is a 13 inch Tsuka (handle) with a 27 ish inch blade

than I spent some time with an obi on and an Iaido blade drawing and resheathing and general moving about

really felt good and it’s been a really long time

whenever I need centered this stuff really seems to help and with a new blade coming next month after this fucked it year it feels good to be trading with a blade again

Good on ya. Once lost, it's difficult to get momentum going again. But once that ball is rolling, it's easy to keep it going!

Yep, I need to start moving around more. :oops: ...and make myself a sword. o_O I don't even have one anymore, and that needs to be rectified. :D
 
Yes you need a sword buddy :)

We used to start every practice session with a 1000 of the jumping Suburi

Those were the days

hoping to be able to get up in the 100’s again soon :)

I should probably start with getting into the hundreds with jumping jacks. :D
