Welcome to the second episode on Armor. Today it is Samurai Armor. Of course Sensei Jackie, Sensei Landyn and I had so many tangents while discussing this subject. Mostly about weapons through the centuries. And of course we've done episodes on so many of the weapons. Let's start with the swords. Here's a link to our first episode on swords. (There were a few.):

And we brought up the Naginata. Want to hear about that weapon? Here ya go:

We have fun discussing Armor, armor and more armor with Sensei Landyn. It was so much busier than I expected. How can you talk about armor, without mentioning the Gladiators. Here's the episode we did on Gladiators back in 2022:

Back in 2022, Kim and Matthew came on and we discussed their love of the series Cobra Kai. It took 2 episodes! Now that the series has ended, we decided to have them on to wrap it up. If you're a fan and want to weigh in - get in touch.

Here are the first two episodes from 2022 if you'd like to listen. First Part 1:

I explain in the episode, so no details are needed here, how we decided to look at some of the thoughts Master Kelljchian shared in his book 365 Days of the Warrior. We reviewed the Book back in 2021.Heres a link:

We're so lucky to have Hanshi Malanoski share some thoughts at the end of this show. Hanshi has been on quite a few times. Here is his first interview:

I was reminded of quite a few episodes while we recorded this show. Here is our episode on Chi (one of my favorites):

And finally, we did 2 episodes on Training and Aging. Here is the first one:

I say finally because, like many episode ideas, this one has been on my list since 2019 when we started recording. I'm so happy we took the time to learn what we could and share it. Ip Man was a strong and honorable practitioner.

Ip Man studied Wing Chun and we did an episode on the beginning of Wing Chun. Here's the link:

I'm tagging an episode on the Moral Code of the Warrior because that came up in this episode. Enjoy:

Hope you enjoy another letter episode that includes the kata (form, dance) Empi Ha and so much more. As usual we refer to many subjects that we've discussed on past episodes. For example: we talked about Kobudo weaponry. We did many episodes on this subject. Here is the first one:

https://www.buzzsprout.com/477379/episodes/5484121

I received a copy of this poem in school - a long time ago. The other day, we were talking about it and decided to bring the conversation to the podcast. Landyn, Sensei Jackie and I laugh quite a bit. Hope you do too. This isn't our first episode on teaching. Here's one from 2023:

Somehow we ended up talking about my favorite subject - self control. Here's the episode we did on that subject:
