i certainly wouldn't say no to a private kendo lesson from Ms. Takemi myself... :D

so how strong is the magnet on the blade?? maybe you can use it all as a cool fridge accessory :D

oh, i knew this thread would turn into yet another "i hit the guy on the floor vs. i wait til he/she stands up"... :D



imho i think there is a huge gap between disarming your opponent to...

side effects of the Wine-flu?

not even sure if these even qualify as "kendo humour" for my fb gallery...

asparria, you have a PM (mensaje privado). Saludos.

if you can afford it, a yoroi would be awesome. and some swords in a stand. and maybe the dojo name written in some nice callygraphy or some inspiring shodo jofuku or renochi.

i think in spain...

i've been also told the reason for falling is irrelevant, whether it was accidental or not. the only thing i've heard in shimpan seminars is that if the fall is really espectacular or involves some...

5 tequila shots before keiko! you'll see how relaxed you'll go hehe. and eventually you'll hit one of the two blue shadows moving in front of you :D

i'll only say... you won't be the first or the last witch to be in kendo/bogu... there are a couple in my dojo already.... (:D :D this is the part where i run for cover :D :D )
