    shodan and nidan questions

    these are the questions for my shodan and nidan that i did in japan and was allowed to answer in english.

    shodan - "explain the key points that are needed in order to improve the basics of your kendo."

    nidan - "explain mittori-geiko," "describe the 5 kamae" and "write 4 or more important points of shomen uchi" of which two were chosen on the day.

    hope these help.
