A proposito di questo titolo
This episode offers a detailed explanation of the differences between the Japanese martial arts of swordsmanship, Iaido, and Kendo. The speaker, an Iaido practitioner, traces the history and evolution of both disciplines, highlighting how Iaido originated with a focus on the sudden drawing of the sword in emergency situations, while Kendo developed as a training method using bamboo swords and armor. It goes on to outline the three main distinctions between the arts: the required equipment (katana for Iaido, armor and bamboo sword for Kendo), the training techniques (solo kata in Iaido, competitive sparring in Kendo), and the size and composition of the practitioner population. Finally, additional clarification is provided on the difference between the suffixes "jutsu" and "do" and a warning about the risks of wielding decorative swords not suitable for training.
