Welcome to the weirdness that is kendo-world.

Remember the toughest part of Kendo is just walking through the front door of your dojo...........mostly :)

[miss kitty]

thanks for the welcome
i must admit the toughest part so far was putting my shinai back together after sanding and oiling it for the first time lol..

Hey, hello there!

I hope you'll enjoy screaming and hitting each other over the head.

Hey Absentee, totally agree on the "weirdness"-part :)

O yeah, welcome to the forum...

Hello and welcome!
Hope you have some interesting stuff to share with the rest of us kendo related or not...

Cheers!

[Maku-san]

Aloha & welcome, Miz Kitty! :D

I've been in kendo since this past February. I enjoy it a lot! :) Part of the reason, too, is Kendo World... cuz I get to meet great, knowledgeable, and down-right funny folks from the world over!

I'm also in Iaijutsu (going on 4 weeks now). Now, that's a toughie! :eek:

[Exia00]

[Lady_Kitsune]

Hello Kitty,
Hello Exia,

Welcome both to the madhouse that is kendo world, hope you enjoy it and do not hesitate when you want to ask something.

Hope you are having fun on Kendo and hope to know about you and the training in the future (the best part of kendo)

[miss kitty]

thanks for the welcomes
hi exia im glad im not the only newbie.

[imouto]

Hi Exia and miss kitty!

Another newbie here too.

[miss kitty]

Yay for the newbies:smiley:

[ne0r]

Wow, all that newbies^^

Hi Exia, hi imouto and (haha) hi miss kitty, again XD

I'll hope you'll also experience another great facet of kendo: Drinkendo, that's the after-keiko beer. Though the beer is not necessary, it's also a lot of fun just playing around and having fun with dojomates XD

[imouto]

Drinkendo? Yes, I believe I am yet to be introduced to this practice.

Something tells me I may be a natural in this particular exercise.

[Super Kodachi2]

Welcome to the Forum and I hope you enjoy Kendo. What dojo are you training at?

if your in England why not visit the London Cup?

We have a ladies individual event, you'd be welcome to come and watch or even compete if you wanted to. We have people from Mu Kyu to 5th dan in the ladies event.

Heres the website www.londoncup.co.uk


Welcome to Kendo and I hope you enjoy your study!
