Batto-Jutsu
is an ancient Japanese term translating roughly as “Fast Sword Art” and is the study of traditional sword drawing
and manipulation. Batto, unlike Iaido concentrates of the immediate killing or disablement of an enemy as opposed to slow
and unrealistic aesthetic sword movements practiced by many modern styles.
Kenjutsu
is the term used to describe the movements and use of the sword once it has been drawn. Kenjutsu utilises technique, speed,
focus and misdirection in order to land an effective strike. Unlike Kendo the art of Kenjutsu largely stresses striking at
the weak and unarmoured parts of the human body, and as such takes a great deal of practice to execute safely and at speed.
The sword styles taught within the Junsei Ryu Sakura Batto-Jutsu system are that
of Muso Shinden Ryu a practical combative sword system dating back to the battlefields of mid 16th century Japan, and Sakura
Ryu Kenjutsu an small school of swordsmanship which combines its own methods and techniques with those from a number of other
medieval schools.
