There is a practice session - No-shiai of 200 primary/secondary school students on a big stage... Harsh practice of female highschools and housewives teams... and Keiko of seven AJKC winners (including Miyasaki Masahiro + Eiga Naoki) as motodachi...

The session of "the beauty of Kata" has Embu of Yagyu Shinkage Ryu Heiho, Nihon Kendo Kata, Iaido, Jodo + Naginata.

The 3rd session is for "International Friendly Matches" - with 9 groups of foreign kendoka from 18 different countries.

We should get the KW team to submit the KW theme music to AJKF! Omigosh! 45 years ago, I remember that song as "Tequila" by The Champs. How things change......although I still like tequila.....and the chords to the song are simple.....

Men!
Kote!
Do!

Ippon!!!!!

How about James Horner? (Braveheart, Lord of the Rings).....but I guess since there is a bit of kendo in Star Wars, AJKF feels John Williams is more appropriate.
