Level1:

First of all, I suppose that the beginner can’t handle kendama smoothly. So calm down and concentrate your hand and the ball. This level is basic techniques. And if you are familiar with kendama, let’s try first level.


Level5:

If you play as like below movie, you already master the kendama.

These techniques are trend and little bid contrivance.



Level10:

These are the highest level techniques which were produced by professional kendama players.


There have been some articles which focus on Kendama on Fun! Japan nowadays.

I’m so amazed when I read your comments because some readers already knew kendama before the first articles. Why did you already know kendama?? Where did you try??  Anyway, I’m glad that you are familiar with Japanese toys before.
