Why They Have a COMPLEX Relationship | The 3 Differences Between Iaido/Iaijutsu & Battodo/Battojutsu

●The All Japan Battodo federation ●The All Japan Kendo Federation Iaido Club If you for example search “katana martial arts” on YouTube, you will most likely find information about 居合道 iaido, which is what I currently train in. However, other related videos might call it “抜刀道 battodo(battojutsu)” instead of iaido. But the katana and training gear the people are using and wearing while they train look almost exactly the same… how are they different? So today, as a Japanese iaido trainee, I will first briefly explain about the history of swordsmanship in Japan, and then talk about the 3 main differences between battodo and iaido. However I am not a trainee of battodo, so I have read this book which was written by the founder of battodo as a reference to make today’s video. The most interesting information that I want to share with you today, comes after discussing the 3 differences between the two, so I hope you can stay with me till the end!
