:''For the more generic use of the word ''chūdan'' in Japanese martial arts, meaning "middle-level," see ''Chūdan''.'' , occasionally ''Chūdan-gamae'', or simply ''Chūdan'' as it is shortened to in many Japanese martial arts schools that instruct in the use of the katana (sword). Chūdan-no-kamae translates to "middle-level posture." In most traditional schools of swordsmanship, and in the practice of kendo, chūdan-no-kamae is the most basic posture. It provides a balance between attacking and defensive techniques. ==Kendo== Chūdan-no-kamae is one of the five stances in kendo: ''jōdan'', ''chūdan'', ''gedan'', ''hassō'' and ''waki''. This is the most basic stance in kendo which balances attack and defence. If correctly assumed, the trunk (''do'') and right wrist (''migi-kote'') are hidden from the opponent. The throat is visible, but the extended tip of the sword threatens a thrusting enemy with a likely counter-thrust. The head (''men'') is the only clearly open target, but this too is easily defended. If the ''kamae'' is not broken, the user can step into striking distance of the opponent whilst maintaining good defence. A beginner learns this stance first in order to learn the correct striking distance, ''issoku-itto-no-maai''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Chūdan-no-kamae」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
