Shinkendo Japanese swordsmanship world headquarters lead the annual Sakura Matsuri sword demonstration during Obata Kaiso's absence. Old and new students alike join to demonstrate solo, paired, and cutting techniques.

Matthew Lynch Sensei mans the mic. Featured are Saito Sensei of West Covina, Mike Shu Sensei from USC Shinkendo, Konstantine Laskaris from New York, and the Honbu dojo family.

We were fortunate to have a second camera there that day, so I did some multicam editing.
