42 sword - two questions
Posted: Mon Mar 21, 2016 9:59 pm
Hello, I hace two questions about the 42 sword form. I hope someone could help me.
The first one is concerning the The circular Movement 39: Thrust and marching (or walk and pierce sword). In some videos and manuals the circle is wide or very wide. In other videos and manuals the circle is small, almost as pivoting around the original spot. ¿is there a right way to execute it?, ¿is the same to perform it in either way?
The second question is about the relation between the initial and final position (after preparation and before closing): ¿should the final position be exactly, or as exactly as possible, at the same spot of the initial position?.
Finally, as you see both questions are related, because depending on the amplitud of the circle of movement 39 it would be possible or not to end in the initial position-
Thank you very much for your help
