Calling all Kendoka!

I jst started this recently and seriously hooked into it. Although am practicing both Kendo and Fencing, there seems to be no clash.

Well, currently, theres not much to talk abt, apart from the fact that my fav. forward attack is Kote-Men and also retreat Kote-Men... to be able to do that in a match must be awesome.

And oh yea, the last KWC, Korea won their "Kumdo" lol... Japan learnt their lesson finally...

Nice, I've been interested into getting into kendo/fencing for quite some time now.

Fencing's pretty easy to get in to, but hard to stick with. I fence foil and saber, and am starting kendo. And i kinda wanted a longer shinai, cause the regulation 39 size is a bit short: anything longer is illegal...

Am in with the British Kendo Association. Our coach happens to be the British National Champion as well lol...

Fencing is easy to get into but hard to stick with, kendo is hard to get into and hard to stick with lol.. very discipline
