Hello everyone! Rising Sun Sports, will be having free lessons on japanese sword fighting every friday!
What is this sport all about? Sports chanbara (Japanese sword fighting) is livelier version of what you see of the old era where samurais spar with each other or go for war. We use a piece of equipment called ActionFlex to simulate the real sword at the same time to reduce injuries and have fun.
In other words, we practice a little bit of kenjutsu and the Japanese culture but when it comes to sparring, it is freestyle.
