Samurai Sword Action
You will learn how to fight using a Samurai sword from a group of experts led by Tetsuro Shimaguchi, the head choreographer in the swordfight scene in the snowy garden in “Kill Bill: Volume One” and the man who played the role of Crazy 88 (Miki) in the film.
First, you will learn basic movements in sword fighting, for example, drawing, posing and swinging. Then, before practicing sword fighting in pairs, you will watch breathtaking sword fights by your instructors. So your performance can be evaluated after your performance will be videotaped. At the end of this program, you will change into kimono and hakama (traditional skirt-like clothing).
Don’t miss this great opportunity to receive a lesson from a team of worldwide known sword fighting actors!
