Edie had disappeared for a couple of minutes, but when she came back, something was clearly different. She had swapped out her navy blue gi that was the kendo club uniform for a white one, and her bogu looked different too. Her kote were split mitts, while the flaps of her men looked a little shorter and more curled. More visibly, she also wore sune-ate - shinguards - which were practically nonexistent in kendo since the bottom half of the body was not a striking point in that martial art. And that was leaving out what she held in her hands. Instead of the shinai that everyone else had, she had a naginata in her right hand. It was wooden and clearly a martial arts weapon like the shinai, but it still stood out significantly.in the dojo. "Everyone form a circle around me!" she called as she stood in the middle of the dojo, and watched as everyone did by their rank. Once they did, she explained. "Well, here's your surprise," she began bluntly. "I know most of you haven't done jigeiko yet, but you have hit your senpai in one way or another. Well, just for a little fun, let's see how you can manage with a different martial art. I want you to go all-out, using everything you've learned in practice so far to strike me. I'll create openings and also block so you can see how a naginata fares against a shinai. Those in bogu, we're going to spar. Let's have some fun, alright?" Satisfied with her introduction, she opened the exercise with the traditional sonkyo, lowering her body to draw her naginata into chudan no kamae while the others did the same with their shinai. Then she rose again, and looked to see who would be the first to go. |
