Demura is an exercise technique developed by Japanese martial artist Masaaki Hatsumi. It is a form of exercise which uses movements from martial arts and traditional Japanese weapons to build strength, balance, and coordination. Demura focuses on small, precise movements that are designed to improve the body’s natural alignment and posture. The exercises are performed in a slow and controlled manner, emphasizing proper form over speed or power. Demura can be used for both physical conditioning as well as martial arts training, making it an effective tool for both fitness enthusiasts and martial artists alike.
