Our weapons training is based on basic weapon techniques with Jo, Bokken, Tanto. The weapons training starts after passing 5.kyu. Basic principles about weapons are important and widely practiced. It includes correct posture, body control, movements, footwork, arm positions, hands, self-training, etc.
