Tetsuzan Kuroda 9: Ken no Maki DVD

Kuroda Tetsuzan's Fastest Sword

This video showcases ancient kata endowed with supreme principles. Techniques of divine speed that never settle.

For Kuroda, who continues to progress towards the essence, the two characters of "highest" are constantly evolving. Movements further fade, becoming softer and closer to the essence. Here, Kuroda Tetsuyama reveals techniques from the year 2000.

Techniques are invisible. When denying immediate physical speed, movements disappear. By learning the non-ordinary theory of movement known as "kata", which cannot be grasped in conventional sports theory, movements are condensed and become martial arts.
