Learning: The right distance to make an attack.

One person is holding their bokken in front of themselves; this will represent ‘them’ (less dangerous than getting attacked yourself). Where ever the sword will be placed, you have to attack the sword when the uke is ready.

Tip: The footwork is not easy, when you keep standing on one place. (Because you have to get back in your basic position.) You can also do this exercise by walking backwards (uke).
