Kodachi Kata

Uke and Ori demonstrate three techniques: 1) Flying birds sword - Uke attacks Ori's back with a waist-high cut as Ori exposes his back while moving. Ori counters by quickly striking Uke's ribs with his sword. 2) Chinese lion attacks - Ori moves and turns his body to expose his left side as a target for Uke. When Ori exposes his left side for the third time, Uke steps in to cut at Ori's side. Ori lunges forward, thrusting at Uke's heart. 3) Cross swords - Ori moves left, exposing his right side. Uke cuts at Ori's right waist. Ori moves forward, grabbing Uke's sword hand before thrusting
