I note from your profile it states: Fuzzy has not made any friends yet. What a surprise! We get questions from people all the time, as in your case, it is usually obvious when they are another martial artist who believes only their way is the right way. It seems it's only kendo purists who have a problem with our fencing, some of our subscribers who send positive comments are Japanese kenjutsu exponents. Though we are not interested in their style either. Cobu is not about fencing, as was explained to you, its just a self defence system that uses many ways to teach people about combat with another person, to that end we are also quite respected amongst other practical modern self-protection instructors. Please keep your narrow minded opinions and lack of REAL experience to your own style. My experience in martial arts is very real.
