nice vid although we only allow the 40" ones not the spear one, the Tanto, or any of the other ones.

Since apparently I am teaching it this upcoming Master's Camp instead of Iaido which of course I have a background in.... and Kendo which I don't.... This shall be interesting....

I have some drills and things... but it I am sure will be a mess....

Headgear must have face mask for head contact

Forearm fist pads are a plus, however, our newer hand pads and forearm pads ought to be okay.

Also the rules are a few years old... so I am currently verifying their validity...

I do now only have 408 tri-sit-ups (technically if you count 3 as one sit-up that's 136 which makes me feel better.


Also come to find out this summer Derek has taken it upon himself to design the course for me to teach, not so much a guideline, but rather a course....

That went over great right after the hey by the way that thing you planned on doing isn't going to happen, we are changing it with only a couple weeks to give yourself time to learn all about kendo.......and Chanbara.
