Hi Kyle san,
Do you have any plan to have Rokudan Premium Shamisen Courses in Bachido website in the near future? If not I will buy the book but I prefer online learning materials. Just because I like paper less life:) and no plan to make Shamisen by myself:)
Cheers
Atsuko
Congrats to be a member of Bachido, Atsuko-san!
Kyle-san, we’ve finally got our shamisen company here in New Zealand, yey!
Yes, rokudan is a MUST piece to learn if you want to know the basic jongara sequence. Having online course will benefit lots of people on Bachido!
Anyway, good luck!

Yes. I agree. I think Kyle has already done a great job with video instructions for Roku Dan. He just has not linked to Bachido yet. But if you go to you tube you can “Already” find some really good Roku Dan examples from Kyle Abbott .
I think there are even more Roku Dan examples from Kyle but I’ll just put these two links for now. Just go to YT to find more. Additionally I have also created three videos of Tsugaru Shamisen instruction (For this Bachido website) that all have to do with Bachizuke of Roku Dan.
You can search right here on the BACHIDO forum for the topics of Roku Dan instruction to find all the videos from the past that have been created here or you can go again to You Tube and type in a search for Kevin Kmetz Roku Dan bachizuke Tsugaru Shamisen lesson.
Thank you and good luck!
Hi Atsuko san! Welcome to the Bachido forum!
Ah, actually yes I do! I already filmed everything, I just need to edit it all together. It’s been on hold as all six parts will take a long time to turn into a premium course. But it will be done! 
In the meantime, thanks to Kevin for providing my earlier rokudan videos! They’re a bit outdated, but you should find then quite useful. As well as some videos Kevin has made on the subject.
I’m glad the NZ contingent of Bachido is growing! 
Hi Kevin and Kyle,
Thank you very much for the link to Kyle’s you-tube as well as Kevin’s video. They are awesome!!
I am looking forward to the online Rokudan premium courses. Sorry if I learn quick from the videos and don’t need the premium courses when they are ready:))

No worries, Atsuko! I can’t blame you for learning quickly.
