🎯First practice in Tokyo for 2025 keikohajime 2025　稽古始め令和7年東京初稽古㊗ In Japan, beginnings and endings are important, are given special names. The first practice session of the new year is called keiko hajime(稽古始め) or hatsu-geiko(初稽古) I wore kimono because it was a special occasion and a celebration. Practicing in kimono feels very different to regular dougi. In part, this is due to the tasuki襷 or silk sash that goes around female practitioners' shoulders. It's tied in order ro move the kimono sleeves away from the bow string. Men remove one kimono sleeve and shoulder fully in an action called hadanugi. #kyudo #longbow #yumi #Asiaticarchery #thumbdraw #recurve #archery #worldarchery #kimono #celebration #Tokyo #弓道 #target #cooljapan #history #クールジャパン #伝統文化

Work with Gyoda City Tourism Association and Maruake Armoury I tried a wonderful samurai armour experience in Oshi Castle 忍城サムライ体験してみました! The other day, I got to wear famous Marutake Armor in Gyoda City. This castle and armour experience is new and available to everyone who would like to try armour and visit a castle to take photos and make some special memories.先日埼玉県行田市の行田観光協会と甲冑体験と撮影ありました。皆様ができる体験ですのでこの機会に是非行田の忍城で甲冑姿の記念撮影してみてください The experience is offered by the Gyoda City Tourism Association and includes getting dressed in armour, a visit to Oshi castle, and depending on the plan, a photographer to take photos for you. I was very surprised at the reasonable cost as I have booked similar armour experiences in other parts of Japan in the past and they have been much more expensive! 体験の詳しい情報やリンクはコメント欄で是非ご確認ください。 On this day, an Australian friend and I took part in the creation of official promotional materials for this armour experience. I was dressed in armour made by Marutake Industries, a famous armourer based in Kagoshima Prefecture. Marutake is what most of the film and television industry here in Japan uses in historical tv dramas and movies. Their armour has been designated as a Traditional Craft of Kagoshima by the Prefectural Government. Even though I can dress myself, being dressed in armour by a professional was really nice. We walked over to the castle under a roof of colourful umbrellas. The backdrop of Oshi castle was just perfect and I wished I could have spent all day exploring. Booking for this armour experience can be done in English online.

Do you know about takagari 鷹狩 or traditional Japanese falconry? (swipe for ukiyoe) If you have seen the TV Series Shogun then you will have seen takagari appearing in several episodes. During the past year I spent time researching traditional falconry in Japan. Takagarii has a long and interesting history starting off as something limited to the bakufu 幕府 or aristocracy, eventually becoming a pastime that the samurai class enjoyed. It was more than just a sport; it was also a form of martial training (hōyōjutsu 放鷹術) that instilled virtues such as patience, discipline, and precision. Falconry was frequently practiced until the end of the Edo period, but practitioners or Takasho 鷹匠 gradually declined after the Meiji Restoration. The season for falconry here is limited to the period between November 15th until February 15th. Usually, Takasho 鷹匠 train their birds over the summer and hold falconry displays starting in Autumn. I found it to be difficult to search out, contact and visit very traditional schools that keep birds reared and trained with very historical methods, as there are not many groups left. I was very privileged to meet and spend the day with two practitioners of this ancient art. One was Endo san, a practitioner of Suwa Ryū Hōyōjutsu 諏訪流放鷹術 practicing in the group he established in 2016 Society for Suwa Traditional Falconry 諏訪流古技保存司会. Like other kobujutsu there are different ryu or schools of falconry. Some schools have branches (including the one I met with) that rear and train their birds using very traditional methods not often seen these days. The public falconry displays, events, and experiences here in Japan will usually have tame birds bred and trained to be used to human contact. Endo san had tame birds. He also has birds trained in a more traditional way. Initially, the bird is fed in darkness and slowly taken outside to be walked in the middle of the night.

Hi this is Jess. I'm from NZ🇳🇿I've been living in Japan close to 23 years. The video shows kyudo 弓道 or the martial art of Japanese archery. It's a worldwide martial art with dojos in about 28 countries worldwide under the International Kyudo Federation (INKF).世界弓道は　国際弓道連盟　INKF が管理してるところです。 Like other barebow archery, there are no sights and stabilisers. And similar to other Asiatic archery styles the arrow goes on the right of the bow and we use a thumb draw via a deerskin glove. #Japan #kyudo #coolJapan #tsurune #shogun #samurai #弓道 #伝統文化 #クールジャパン #🇯🇵 #chill #newme

🎍Happy New Year 2025🎍 明けましておめでとうございます本年度も宜しくお願いいたします🐍 I hope your 2025 year of the snake will be wonderful and full of happiness, *swipe for snake ukiyoe! 📌How did you spend New Years? Kuki Washinomiya Shrine x hemp kimono with myoga kamon crest 埼玉県久喜市鷲宮神社と男物麻着物と丸に抱き茗荷家紋 📍This is Washinomiya Shrine in Kuki City Saitama久喜市：鷲宮神社 This shrine is noted as being one of the oldest Shinto shrines in the Kanto region. There are records contained in the Azuma Kagami, the official historical record for the Kamakura Shogunate. The shrine was said to have been visited by the Imperial family and Shōgun Tokugawa Ieyasu. Photos are from summer🌞 hence the hemp kimono. Asa麻 hemp was wonderful. Harder/stiffer than linen and doesn't stick to skin in humidity, which was really nice. The 家紋kamon or family crest on the kimono is maru ni daki myouga丸に抱き茗荷 Which means Japanese ginger in a circle. Myoga is a perennial plant of the ginger family and was auspicious as it sounds the same as another myoga 冥加 protection of gods and Buddhas.For this reason, myoga crests are often used at shrines and temples⛩️ #history #埼玉県広報アンバサダー #初詣 #textiles #kimono #shogun #男着物 #redhead #Japan #summer #tokugawa #tokugawaieyasu #samurai #ukiyoe #浮世絵 #yearofthesnake #きもの #埼玉県 #久喜

It's an opportunity for me to set goals for the upcoming new year. Also it's a time for me to show gratitude 感謝 give thanks to my sensei, sempai and dojo. Depending on the discipline and its related history and traditions, keiko osame is a time for ceremony too. Putting a proper close to the year and preparing for the new year through a set of rituals.

✋Swipe to see what I'm holding📌Let's talk about the 槍 yari/spear 槍の話 Yari 槍 is the term for a polearm with a Japanese blade or nihonto in the form of a spear. Yari are made in several different handle/pole lengths and blade types. The martial art of the yari is called sojutsu槍術槍（やり）長い柄の先に鋭利な刃物を着装した道具。刺突を主目的とする猟具、武器・武具の一種。Some yari had a wooden core wrapped in split bamboo, with the outside wrapped in hemp and hardened with urushi lacquer producing a flexible weapon useful for striking the enemy from above. The longer handle of the yari allowed the user to attack from a greater distance meaning you could strike before your enemy did. Particularly effective against mounted warriors who could not be reached with a sword. But how about yari on horseback? Technically, to be period correct someone wearing this Heian period oyoroi armour on horseback wouldn't be holding a yari. They would likely be holding a naginata or a yumi. On this day however I had the chance to try a nagayari 長槍 (over 3m) on horseback and I couldn't resist. The length was amazing. Controlling the horse with one hand and tucking the yari on one side of my body/ armpit was fine when riding but this giant yari would take two hands to control properly. Until the Nanboku-cho period, foot soldiers/ashigaru tended to use a yumi when targeting mounted samurai. The downside to the yumi was that it required a certain amount of skill and training to use proficiently/shoot straight. It was found that spears were a good alternative for ashigaru as they were a relatively user friendly and convenient weapon. The yari has over 15 different blade shapes, many different handle lengths (90cm-6m), blade lengths (2-90cm) and as such varies a lot in weight(1-6kg). 槍の面白さが、刃の形が沢山です！１５種類以上あって、全体長さも様々でとってもバリエーションが多い武器です。 Originally based on Chinese spears, Yari really became main weapons around the Muromachi period and latter half of the 16th Century. They also appear quite frequently in ukiyo-e woodblock prints. more info in pinned📌comment👇 #槍 #spear #cooljapan #歴史 #history #samurai #烏帽子 #eboshi #伝統文化 #polearm #horses #onnabugeisha #outdoors #Japan #Shogun samurai #armour #yoroi #Japan #armor

Oshi Castle and hitatare samurai kimono忍城跡ｘ直垂 Happy Saturday everyone! I visited a famous castle the other day in Gyoda city Saitama Pref. called Oshi Castle 忍城 or Oshi jo. It was completed by Narita Akiyasu around 1479 and was destroyed following the Meiji restoration and then rebuilt again in 1988.I wore a really comfortable Asa hemp hitatare which I thrifted. It was really hot that day so the asa felt really nice on my skin..先日行田市にあります、忍城遊びに行きました。皆様埼玉のお城：忍城ご存じですか？せっかくなので麻の直垂着てみました。その日が暑かったので麻の肌触りが良かったです。 📌About Oshi Castle During the Edo period it was the center of the 100,000 koku Oshi Domain. It was regarded as one of the seven main strongholds of the Kantō region. In present day it functions as The Local History Museum for Gyoda City.江戸時代に入ると忍藩の藩庁あるいは徳川氏の譜代大名や親藩の居城でした。1988年に跡に行田市郷土博物館が開館、御三階櫓は博物館の一部として「忍城鳥瞰図」や文献などを元に、鉄筋コンクリート構造によって外観復興されている Hitatare was said to have originated in the early Heian period, and by the mid 13th century, it had become the standard samurai garment. Patterns and colours would denote the wearers staus within society at the time.平安時代から存在する物であって、後で武士の服として使われました。 In two parts, the top and bottom are made from the same fabric. The bottom is a hakama (pleated trousers) similar to a womens kyudo hakama without koshiita. Please swipe to see all the parts of the hitatare named. 写真で着てる物が｢直垂｣です! 上と下に別れており、上は直垂、下が袴になってて、直垂袴と呼ばれてます。今思えば弓道の女性袴に形に近いかも。 As a general rule, the top and hakama of the hitatare are made from the same fabric.Traditionally made of linen, then later silk after it became a type of formal wear..直垂は原則として上衣と袴が同じ生地で仕立てられ、パッと見では二部式と分からないのが特徴です。It is said that over time the upper part of the hitatare has become its own garment called a haori. 📌Continued in pinned comment続きは📌コメント欄にて #castle #Oshijo #Gyoda #kimono #Shogun #shogunfx #hitatare #traditional #antique #kyudo #弓道 #samurai #武士 #cooljapan #sword #LARP #Japan #歴史 #タイムスリップ #時代劇 #大河ドラマ #history #直垂 #fabric #伝統文化 #formalwear #silk #着物 #autumn #埼玉県広報アンバサダー

Remembering the history of Tochigi Prefecture and it's samurai roots through Budo Tours 武道ツーリズムツアーを通して栃木県の伝統文化と歴史をもっと世界へ Last week I had the honour of working with the Tochigi Prefectural Government Sports Commission and the Tochigi Prefecture Kyudo Federation.先日栃木県スポーツコミッションと栃木県弓道連盟とお仕事する機会ありました。 I spent the day monitoring, interpreting, and helping to instruct 20 people who were trying kyudo for the first time.20名の外国人が参加しました武道ツーリズムツアーの一部(弓道体験)の視察、通訳、指導、現場サポートとして参加しました。ユウケイ武道館で行いました。 Things like participant safety, language ability, accident insurance, kyudo etiquette, physical ability, kyudo equipment, dojo time limits, dojo availability/places to practice etc means that there are currently only a small handful of places in the whole of Japan that will allow you try kyudo as a visitor/first-timer. Access to kyudo is quite difficult.弓道を体験したいという目的としに日本に訪れる外国の方が年に増えてる中実際弓道体験できる所が全国で複数ヵ所しかありません。バリアになる言語、安全性、保険、指導員、場所、引く前の基本体や礼儀作法の説明などで門人ではない方にとってアクセスが難しい武道であります。 Senpai Hiro san and I were contacted by the Tochigi Prefectural Government to help advise them on plans to include a kyudo experience as part of their Tochigi tour for visitors to Japan. Showcasing wonderful cuisine, historic buildings, shrines and traditional cultural experiences, the tour showed participants the links to traditional and samurai culture that are important to Tochigi Prefecture. 今回栃木県スポーツコミッションによる栃木の名物料理、歴史ある建物や神社、伝統文化と武道体験を含めたツアーのモニターツアーが行いました。 One of the experiences was kyudo (the part I was involved in) as Tochigi has a very famous samurai story regarding ogi mato荻的 or the fan shaped target.弓道体験がそのツアーの一部になり荻の的物語(那須与一)で有名、栃木県が弓矢の文化を世界の皆様へ伝わります。 Nasu no Yoichi 那須与一 served as a vassal to the first Shogun of the Kamakura Shogunate, and was known to be a master archer having landed an arrow on a fan target during the Battle of Yashima, one of the battles in the Genpei War.

I visited a hankyu dojo 半弓道場 in Matsumoto City. (Swipe for video)After visiting Matsumoto castle with Matt san, we went to try hankyu半弓! We have all heard of the kyudo bow or yumi (daikyu大弓 big bow) however Japan has historically quite an interesting short bow culture too! There are several types of tankyu or short bows 短弓 and koyumi 小弓 small bows including the bow I used at Matsumoto Hankyu which is called a hankyu 半弓 Short短弓 and small bows 小弓 were historically used for self defence, hunting and for leisure in Japan. If you would like further info I will make a deepdive on my Patreon with specific names, pictures, links and historical information about these different bows. At Matsumoto Hankyu everyone's welcome. The overall equipment and method is slightly different to shihanmato四半的which I have talked about in previous posts however its a very fun and easy to do type of Japanese archery. After a lesson and demonstration by the dojo staff, you sit to shoot at the 7 metre target and there are points awarded depending on where your arrow lands on the target (10, 8, 5, 3). You pinch the nocked arrow and anchor at the edge of your mouth under your chin, meaning the shorter draw is quite manageable for people who have never used a yumi before. At this dojo (and several others around Japan) they used uncut kyudo arrows and a soft hand protector for the right hand, though I am used to pinch draw so I just used my bare hands. This was Matt's first time to do Japanese archery and he did impressively well. It goes to show me that hankyu is a nice way to start with Japanese bow culture. Hiro san of course scored the highest with his many bullseyes🎯 There are hankyu dojos all around Japan that are welcoming and fun. Would you like to see a reel or post about some dojos I have visited?#samurai #hankyu #kyudo #kyujutsu #history #Matsumoto #castle #kimono #antique #半弓 #cooljapan #クールジャパン #松本 #shogun #longbow #shortbow #伝統文化 #歴史 #四半的 #弓道 #着物 #振袖着物 #着付け 📌Would you like to try hankyu半弓?

How long does it take to master kyudo? The quick answer is a lifetime. Kyudo is the way 道 of the bow 弓 meaning it's a path you walk over your time as a practitioner. Over time, we polish and hone our shooting skills, muscle use and movement, our timing with others and in each step of our shooting (maai), our knowledge of equipment and maintenance, it relates to the time we spend helping at the dojo, mentoring and teaching others and the presence and feeling that emanates from us when we shoot. Just to mention a few of the areas we learn and train in. It's a holistic sort of thing that is multifaceted. There are several different types of kyudo (military, ceremonial, spititual, sporting, etc) and 10 people have 10 ways of thinking 十人十色 junintoiro(a famous saying here) I think to master kyudo depends on the person and their way of thinking/goals etc. For me, it's important to learn about everything at my own pace and learn it carefully. The history, about all kyudo and kyujutsu schools, all equipment both modern and historic, all ways of thinking, all ways of shooting. This takes time, but I have my whole life to enjoy every moment and detail and piece of history that I'm blessed to learn. Just a little bit at a time. And I will keep posting here as I continue on my journey. I hope that's ok🫶 📌Distance 28m 📌Bow carbon nami sun 221cm 12kg at a 90cm draw.

Shihan mato (traditional archery from Miyazaki Pref) 四半的の話 I started this type of kyujutsu a couple of years back and really love the informal atmosphere. I made a video about the differences between kyudo and shihanmato and it's on my YT🤗 🔹Would you like to try hankyu or shihan mato? Our bows are short asymmetric (yumi) called hankyu (半弓) the arrows are super long(1.36m) and the target is 8.2m away, we sit seiza to shoot, we pinch draw with bare hands, anchor is under our chin and the string on our forehead.The targets are13.6cm. 📌的まで8.2m 矢長さ1.36m 口割り/頬付けがあごの方にあります。ゆがけを使わない、ピンチ式で弓引きます。的まで四間半、弓矢ともに四尺五寸、的も四寸五分とすべてのサイズが四半であることが名前の由来といわれ、現在は市の無形文化財に登録されている。 Shihan mato is a traditional type of archery (kyujutsu) from Miyazaki Prefecture that started approx 450 years ago. This form of archery has been designated as Intangible Cultural Property by Obi City. 四半的が宮崎県発祥の伝統弓術で約450年前から始まってるといいます。弓が短く、矢長く、座って引きます🎯 #GTKM24 #archery #Japan #shihanmato #四半的弓道 #四半的 #mindfulness #Samurai #calm #happiness #smile #Japan #kyujutsu #nippon #伝統文化 #oldjapan #instinctivearchery #longbow #kyudo #弓道 #worldarchery #trivia #history #Shogun #cooljapan #クールジャパン #gettoknowme
