Abstract(in English) In teaching motor skills, instructors often provide instructions (or subjective criteria) related to body perception in order to guide desirable body movement. In the present study, we investigated the effect of such subjective criteria on the body movement in practice swing of Kendo (Japanese fencing). Specifically, we measured the movements of a bamboo sword and arms of five participants (including a rank holder and novices) using a motion capture system when they swung the sword according to several different instructions. We found that the motion trajectory of the rank holder showed specific features and that movement trajectories of participants changed dependent on the given instructions.
