BEGIN Japanology - Kendo

Описание к видео BEGIN Japanology - Kendo

With fierce yells and the clashing of bamboo swords, two swordsmen attack, their movements just a blur to the eye. This is the traditional Japanese martial art of kendo.

The aim of kendo is not merely to defeat your opponent, it's also a way to train your mind. In the days of samurai warriors mastery of the sword was a matter of life and death. That unflinching spirit remains undimmed in modern day kendo.

This 28 minute-long video clip from the Begin Japanology series produced by NHK (Japan Broadcasting Corporation) introduces kendo, the way of the sword that has kept alive the traditional samurai spirit.
