2 weeks ago we had the Fureai Matsuri and Open Day here in the center. It’s an annual event where people outside are invited to the center for cultural exchange program with students from various countries.

The forever funny Takuya-san, you won’t believe how old is him…
Among the few programs and performances presented during the day, I joined Iaido, an art of controlling the movement of sword. Though the one we used were not the real samurai sword, it’s still pretty heavy. Took us 4 weeks to practice, and I can still hardly swing the sword correctly. Needless to say, performing the “Kata“’s and forms correctly is even more challenging.

Ok, I know my slippers spoilt the pose…


A little warm up before performance

Guess I’m just too scary for her…

Very slow hor… haha. I think it is even harder for the one who was holding two cameras while recording this clip and took pictures at the same time. Special thanks to Nu-san for the help.
Til then…
