This video shows a Batto kata class with an old Japanese 10th degree Batto Master, Tasuburo Tokutomi Sensei. He is about 78 in this video. I ws introduced to him in 1994 and began practice with him on Saturday afternoons and evenings when my ship was in port. He told me his father started him when he was 13. This was the true "Old Master".
