This Sunday is SCKF tournament, so we did Shiyai keiko today.
After observing my shiyai keiko, Richard made a comment. He said that he saw some good valid points, but since I stopped in the middle of the attack, I didn't get the points.
It was a good feed back because I constantly forget that I become timid during the shiyai.
When there's points at stake, my mind gets affected and it affects my body and technique. I stop in the middle of the attack to quickly block the opponent's counter attack, etc.
I should free my mind.
Being natural, neutral, and free mind, I believe that that is a mind for kendo.
(Point is, I should loosen up and relax...and go for it....as UG always said...)
