No, if you watched it and understood, that will suffice.
Now the lunge. The lunge is, in effect, a moving stab. Though you can remain static or be moving during a stab, a lunge always takes some kind of forward motion, most often a step forward which you lean into, and thrust your blade forward with one or two-hands, though for most power, two.
Again, this is a relatively simple move, and the variation of this move that I'm teaching you is not exactly like it's fencing counterpart (though it is extremely similar), therefore a video may not be appropriate, though if you want, go to youtube and search Fencing Lunge for a technique often used in fencing.
*Taking a katana, I place my right hand beneath the tsuba of the weapon.
I have myself angled slightly so that my left shoulder is behind my right shoulder. I then take a step forward, with my left foot, and then quickly take another step forward with my right foot, thrusting my arm forward as I lean into the step, causing my blade to go quickly in front of my body. Then, from the position, I push with my legs to quickly right myself.*
Actually, in retrospect, knowing how the fencers do it is appropriate. The real method is much more effective, as the placement of the leg allows you to push off and send yourself backward so that you don't get struck.
Note: In the video, she is doing a fencing strike, which means she is standing in a position you're most likely not going to take in battle. In the RP, you're more likely to be standing as I described, and lean forward into the strike.
I take my wooden sword and go to a tree over there.. i place my right hand beneath the tsuba of my wooden sword.. so i have myself angled alittle so that my left shoulder is behind of my right shoulder then i take a step forward with my left foot after that i quickly take another step forward with my right foot..thrusting my arm forward as i lean into step so that my sword go quickly infront of my body and from this position i push my leg to quickly right myself
hope this is fine <_<
one question : what that meaning of '' i push my leg to quickly right myself '' hehe <_<

Eh, yeah, that works. The concept of the move is simple.
And sorry about that - must be a regional thing or something; think about it like a bowling pin - if it tilts to the side, it's at an angle, but once it spins around and stands straight up again, it has righted itself.
o_o Now, would you mind telling me what all we've covered?
oops i forgotten to add in that
yeap we did gymnastics stuff and dodging in 1st page o.o
but if there's still other kind of dodging we can still do that

as i pick up my wooden sword from the ground before i start standing up[as in i bend down so my face would also look down] then in a swift moment i quickly rush at you and also now my face is also faced up[ looking at you] before i reach you[maybe like 30steps away] i quickly take a kunai attracted with smokebomb and threw it at you and before it reach you it will blow up so you couldn't see me then now i quickly run to my right side[ i was in the center running toward you at first] trying to stab you with my wooden sword

*When you throw the smoke bomb, I simply jump backwards. Since you attack my right, and I jumped back, out of the smoke cloud, your attack would miss.*
Please, no ninja tools or anything like that - only use your sword. Try again.
I start rushing toward you in a great speed.. suddenly i jump up in the sky..as you would look up(you will see the sun and because of the brightness you will close your eye or look away) since you look away/close your eye i simply slash down and slashing your head..my sword is just made out of wooden so it won't kill lol o.o
hope you don't kill me too LOL

It's a wooden sword - we couldn't kill each other unless we REALLY tried.
*As you jump up, and try to block my vision with the sun, I simply jump to my left - since you can alter your position in the air, you would come straight down like you intended, but you would miss me.
But, as you start to fall, because I change my position, you are no longer right infront of the sun, and as you fall, I wait until you're close to the ground and rush at you, slashing with a horizontal strike from my left to right.*
While i was falling[i do keep my eye on you] so as i see you about to do a horizontal strike i quickly hold my sword up in a line to block your attack while i successfully block your attack then i simply do a vertical slash on you.

*As you block my slash, but before you actually preform the vertical slash, I cut back across - but as you lift your sword I change the angle of my slash into an arc, so that while your blade is lifted my blade hits it and knocks your blade to your right as you bring the blade down, causing it to miss me. With this movement, I grab your wrist with my left hand, causing you to keep your blade down, and in the same movement cut my blade upwards like I'm doing an uppercut, and rest the edge of the bokken against your throat.*
As so i missed i quickly do a quick roll on the ground so that i will be few steps away from you as soon as i done that i quickly stand back up after i got up back i quickly make a jump and doing a slash cross to you.
