So, I got a sword erection? Your training is strange.
What can i say? xD let start then
In essence, Kenjutsu is the same as taijutsu. I dont need to explain what this is
Here you will simply practice maneuvers with me, all martial arts a mixture of Skill and Power. Like in taijutsu for example, there is Gentle fist and Strong fist. Gentle Fist has references from Ba'gua while Strong Fist has references from 8 chakras (Real life examples). Kenjutsu is mostly based around skill. Its about Stance, range and precision. Lets start with something basic
-Grabs a sword and performs a barrage over a practice dummy-

(Ken Rendan no Jutsu) - Sword Barrage Technique
Rank: C
Type: Offensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 10
Damage points: 25
Description: With this technique, the user will make a sequence of slashes with their sword and finishes with a powerful final slash dealing liberal damage to their enemy.

Note that chakra involved, so its not purely a performance of body. Use of chakra here is to boost your reflexes and speed temporarily to quickly slash through the opponents similar to how body flicker technique works. Your turn

Channeling chakra into my feet and arms I begin to perform a sequence of slashes with my sword, aiming to hit the dummy in numerous places. By channeling chakra into my feet I am able to improve my footwork and bounce around my target very quickly, much like how a boxer must remain on their toes at all times in order to increase their chances of counter attacking should the opponent make a move. By channeling chakra through my arms I am able to speed my arm movements as well as giving myself a slight strength boost, adding to the overall power and swiftness of my blows, by keeping the blows quick and sharp I am able to increase the unpredictability and keep my attack difficult to counter.

(sorry, that wasn't great.)

Asuma's technique from game, although not mentioned in the techniques its obvious since its asume's technique, it uses the same method as Flying swallow, are you familiar with it?

Asuma's Signature technique is Flying Swallow, it is used in combination with his two Chakra Blades (Made of a metal that easily absorbs chakra to aid the user). This technique in my opinion laid the foundation of the ability we classify as "chakra flow". The user flows an immense amound of Chakra within his weapon, so much that it becomes visible to naked eye, flowing through the weapon the chakra acquires the form of the weapon itself extending its reach. As asume explains, within the blade he has two portions of chakra that rub against each other which in turn forms a buzzsaw like effect. The weapon this ability is used on gains an incredible boost enough to slice straight through iron (And not just the blade, the intangible chakra extension is lethal as well). The technique was also shown to be usable on projectiles like thrown kunai where it pierced straight through a rock, combined with Wind nature the technique is easily good enough to cut steel.
------
I cannot find the written template of the technique, it used to be there. But anyway this is the foundation for many kenjutsu its best that you know this

Coooooly, it's all fairly easily understood which is nice ^_^

I begin with a quick right handed jab to my opponents nose, the jab is followed by a left hook. As my left hook connects I continue the swing in my left arm, bringing it down to my right hip, the hip upon which my sword lay still, resting silently in its sheath. As my left arm swings down to grab the blade I bring my right hand up with an uppercut to my opponents jaw, this buying me enough time to draw my sword back across my body with my left hand. As well as this the uppercut stretches my opponents body and leaves the stomach open to the first sword swing, slicing his stomach from left to right. This motion of slashing across the body would leave my blade pointed in the same direction as my body, with my opponents stomach wounded the natural reaction of the human body would be to bend over to the front, bringing the head and body down to stomach level in order to prevent further damage. It is this reaction that I would take advantage of next. Bringing my blade wielding left arm back across my body I drive the sword tip first through my opponents temple.

A few punches followed by two sword slashes. I know it's not the same as Asuma's cross cut. But I like my version better.

( Enjin Ranbu ) - Circular Wild Dance
Rank: C
Type: Attack
Range: Short
Chakra cost: N/A
Damage points: 25
Description: The user spins with his tantō, hitting the target several times.

( Rakkasui ) - Falling Water
Rank: C
Type: Offensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: N/A
Damage points: 25
Description: The user will drop down upon the opponent from mid air pointing their sword downwards and drilling it down into the opponent.

No chakra cost, so they are basic maneuvers. There is nothing to teach, you just have to perfect your these moves, the timing and force exerted. Practice them both

As I draw my blade I kick off of my right leg, pushing off the ground with great force as I rise up onto the toes of my left foot. This action sends my body into a spin, by keeping my arms and legs compact I am able to keep my body fairly streamlined, increasing the spin speed and thus increasing the strength of strike as I allow my blade to poke out on my right hand side making sure that the blade is cutting through the wind and building no resistance as I turn. I hold the blade at around neck height, aiming for a deadly blow should it connect.

Using an earth technique in order to create a pillar beneath my feet I am shot into the sky with enough force that I am sent up and left above my oppponents head as I make my descent. Whilst in the air I position my sword so that the point of the blade faces the ground. With bent elbows I hold the blade in both hands, driving down as I reach my opponent, generating maximum force in the strike. As well as the force from my arms I make sure to keep my whole body above the sword, using my body weight to add to the power in the stab.
