Advanced Kendo Topics (Memphis Kendo Club): Avoiding De(bana)-Kote
http://experiencedkendo.blogspot.com/2007/10/avoiding-debana-kote.html

Being a taller player, I'm often concerned at being hit dekote in shiai and am wondering if others have advice as to how one can attack men and not be 'as' open to this cut?

For 3Dan-5.Dan: Learning Seme to Make Opponent Strike or Move Back. Previously, I referred to ‘four opportunities for striking’ and said that ‘striking when the opponent finishes a strike’ would be an important tactic for Kyu grade practitioners to learn and try during Ji-geiko with other Kyu grade holders.
