In kendo martial art, the word "feint" does not fully correspond to the essence of the action. Beginners sometimes call it such a deceitful move, when the enemy demonstrates the intention to take one step, and makes another. In using the feints, a fighter can gain victory over the opponent, but not spiritual experience and strength.

This subtlety, like any other aspect of martial art, consists of external manifestations and internal motives. To learn the external, watch the older fighters, copy their actions.

The internal component is the goal of your fight. You must crush the enemy. The goal is achieved in three stages. First, kill the enemy’s sword. Make sure that in a direct attack the weapon is not in front of you (then you will inevitably be killed), but in any other place or position. Force your opponent to steal weapons by force or cunning.
3
Kill (neutralize) enemy equipment. Avoid being hit by an attacking opponent to confuse him.
4
Kill the enemy’s will. Unlike the first two stages, the result will not be outwardly visible, but it is the will that determines the winner. Remember: surrendered means defeated. You can give the impression of a stronger and stronger fighter, move more agile, have a stronger own will.
