Chiba promoted a more spiritually minded art of sword fighting. This style used a straight [[bokken]] in kumitachi style training, which is considered the ancestor of the [[shinai]] used in modern [[Kendo]]. Followers of this style held competitions in which the bokken was used against a person armed with a [[naginata]].
