Why drop the bokken vertical prior to a downstroke? Here is a video of Saito Sensei performing bokken suburi. You can see the vertical positioning at ~7:15. |

how to fight with eyes There is something to be said for training one's full attention on a person - it's often found to be uncomfortable (though I have no 'official' sources). However, I suspect that staring at people will do the opposite of what you're looking for (unless you're looking for a fight...). |

Fighting styles that use a katana from the beginning I practice/teach at an Aikikai dojo, and we have a weekly weapons class anyone is welcome to attend. But it's very stylized and, as @Sardathrion said, mostly serves to improve one's Aikido. |

What rate should I be learning tai chi and qi gong? Good Answer! And +1 in particular for "If you feel like that what you're doing in class is useless or isn't right for you, then you are always free to choose something else or go somewhere else." |

Are any Martial Arts Reality Shows/Documentaries useful to watch? I found Fight Science and Human Weapon nice for the physics breakdowns. |
