Happy Wednesday 5 years! Swipe for videos! 弓道5年目になりました。 It's been 5 years since I started kyudo. Photos from my 5 years of kyudo. 今日はその五年間の盛り合わせ。 Looking back at my old photos and videos is quite cringey but I can seeing a massive improvement from then and now(swipe for video) 写真や動画を振り返って見ると、進歩は少し感じます。前の動画が少し恥ずかしいです。 I loved Robin Hood when I was small. The photo is from my 5th birthday. I never dreamed that I would be living in Japan learning kyudo. 小さい時からロビン・フッドが大好きで、5歳の誕生日になりきって、弓矢も持ってます。まさか大人になって日本で弓道に関わると思ってませんでした。 Starting kyudo has really changed my life. Physically, mentally and spiritually. Taking time to slow down and focus was what I needed but never knew till I started.変な話かもしれないが弓道始めたお陰で人生が変わったというか、精神的、肉体的なところもそうですが、文化、言語、礼儀作法、出会い。 Physically kyudo has given me great posture, and a strong body and mind and I feel more balanced overall. I like myself more now than I did 5 years ago. 感謝 Very big thank you to Roy san for introducing me to Hiro san. To Hiro for always supporting my kyudo activities and ideas and for wonderful photos.

Happy Thursday! Why are your arrows so long? Talking about shihan mato. 四半的の話！Swipe for video👉️ When posting about shihan mato I often get asked why the arrows are so long. So first, a little bit about this type of Japanese archery or kyujutsu: Our bows are short asymmetric (yumi) called hankyu ( 半弓)the arrows are super long(1.36m) and the target is 8m away, we sit seiza to shoot, we pinch draw until our chin and there is no glove like kyudo.The targets are also tiny at 13.7cm ~3.5 cm too! 📌的まで8.2m 矢長さ1.36m 口割り/頬付けがあごの方にあります。ゆがけを使わない、ピンチ式で弓引きます。 的まで四間半、弓矢ともに四尺五寸、的も四寸五分とすべてのサイズが四半であることが名前の由来といわれ、現在は市の無形文化財に登録されている。 Shihan mato is a traditional type of archery (kyujutsu) from Miyazaki Prefecture that started about 400 years ago. This form of archery has been designated an Intangible Cultural Property by Obi City. 四半的弓道始めての方ですが、宮崎県発祥の伝統弓術で約400年前から始まっております。弓は短く、矢長く、座って引きます😃 Shihan mato started in lands governed by the Shimazu clan samurai during a time of warfare between 1467 and 1603 in what is now Miyazaki prefecture on the southern island of Kyushu. It is said peasants living in Shimazu lands were allowed to practice archery only when seated because their feudal overlords feared they might use their bows to rebel. It is thought that the seated shooting position in seiza was intended to reduce the martial application of the practice for the peasant classes. 🔹The arrows length meant it would be impractical as a weapon or in battle. 🔹 Some sources mention that during the Warring states period, military commanders also practiced shihan mato for fun. Then during the Edo period it became popular among samurai warriors too, in the mid-Meiji period, it became a casual type of archery which was enjoyed with shochu at banquets. 戦国時代には武将の酒宴時に、江戸時代には武士の間で普及し、明治中期頃には酒宴の席などで焼酎を酌み交わしながら親しまれる娯楽へと変化した競技。 Photos by @hirokyudoworld #archery #Japan #shihanmato #アーチェリー #四半的弓道 #四半的 #mindfulness #Samurai #calm #happiness #smile #archerylife #carbonfiber #kyujutsu #nippon #🇯🇵 #warringstates #edoperiod #oldjapan #instinctivearchery #longbow #kyudo #弓道 #worldarchery #trivia #why #facts
