Kyudo is not a sport, Kyudo is a Martial Art form, practised in Japan
for centuries. When I was in Kamakura, I was able to visit a Kyudo Training School
within one of the main temples of the town. Mamie Mayanaki from Toyko
was so kind as to introduce us to this ancient art of Kyudo, where the
archer is always in a meditative consciousness and follows a strict set
of traditional ceremonies and guidelines. As Mamie states in her
interview, you need to practise for 30 years or more to achieve
perfection in this field.
