My 6th Dan Grading Performance on 2026 June 14th at Kyoto Budo Center (Performed with injuries)

My 6th Dan Grading Performance on 2026 June 14th at Kyoto Budo Center This year i had to perform with injuries on my left ankle and right knee. I couldn't bend fully my right knee had difficulty with seiza sitting. Furthermore, I hadn't yet got used to new iaito with a longer length. Nevertheless, i went ahead and did my best on the day. Fortunately, my performance was kind of acceptable with a few mistakes. ⚠️ Note: Please do not use this video as your reference to learn techniques online. Some movements may be modified to offset pain caused by my injuries and to suit the circumstances on the day. I respect all dojos and Sensei's who may have a different way of doing the same technique or movement. [My Recommendations] 1.
