⚔️ Tameshigiri Tuesday ⚔️

Last week, select members of Yabane Yodokan represented the dojo in a tameshigiri event (test-cutting).
Their precision, focus, and discipline shone through as they applied their training in the art of the cut.

We’re proud of their performance and commitment to preserving tradition through practice. 🥋💪
