This is your opinion, and it's an uninformed one. You make the assumption that Inaba is good at Kashima Shinryu, when anyone in the school will say otherwise. This isn't to say he's bad at kenjutsu, just bad at Kashima Shinryu.
The fact that he had past experience actually hinders his learning experience, making 1.5 years not nearly enough. Trying to switch from one art with one focus to another is quite difficult. His own form shows that Inaba didn't rid his own styles while studying KSSR.

perhaps english isn't your primary language, but when you write things like "one of most active" you are comparing between others or else how can he be "one" of, or "most" anything?
either way, thx.

Active in cultivating what he has learned. I'm not comparing I'm telling you history.

"In fact he was one of most active of his students after his death."
What does this mean, exactly? Active how and in comparison to whom? and in what manner?

But Inaba sensei has studied martial arts long before he was student of Kunii and long after. He has several high degree in many different styles for example 3dan in kendo. So you right 1,5 year isn't enough for somebody who has no experience but for someone with a lot of it is something. Maybe not all but something for good start for future developing, which he used very well.

I met Inaba sensei few times and my answers are:
1 He studied Kashima after a Death of Kunii. In fact he was one of most active of his students after his death.
2.Year and a half isn't enough in any art.
3,4,5,6 See above

I certainly am no master, and certainly need guidance. We all need that. Just be careful who you look to for guidance.
Life is too short to spend years training under false pretenses. Like I said before ya got guts kid. Dont waste your time...do your research. I did.

punchy, i'll be frank with you, i'm bored of you!
how about we forget beating up the masters' names with words and typing, and get on with our studying, whatever style it may be!
you talk like you yourself are a master, that you no longer need guidance. forgive me if that's wrong, but that is the impression i am getting...

Inaba is a lot of things within the aikido community. Cant take that away from him and wouldnt try. But outside of aikido is a different story.
If you read Kfridays book youll see that it took Kunii a lifetime of training from kashima shinryu masters to get to his level. But I guess Inaba only needs a year and a half then a lifetime of training with aikidoka to get his mastery.
once again..hmmmm |
