The purpose of this study is to clarify the sword techniques in Gorinnosho written by Musashi Miyamoto. In this study we compared Modern Kendo with Gorinnosho in fundamental movements. They are posture, metuke (a shrewd iudge of the opponent's trick and weak point), grip, foot work, kamae (offensive and defensive posture) and swing. we summarized as follows: (1) posture, kamae and swing Musashi puts more emphasis on the result of fight than the manner or the style, which means that he does not wish to be restrained by the manner on the style too much. The style and the manner are the most important things in Modern Kendo. (2) metuke Musashi is metuke seeing through the opponent's trick is a little narrow compared with the metuke of Modern Kendo. (3) grip We can find some differences between the hitting techniques. (4) foot work Musashi always moves based on his foot work. But in Modern Kendo there are four kinds of foot work techniques according to the condition of the game.
