swiv2d Says:

May 22, 2007 - I remember this, I watched it along time ago. I really wanted to see this again, thanks!

swiv2d Says:

May 22, 2007 - I think all traditional forms of martial arts really has lost it's essence from tradition or just plain ability. Simply cause all these old masters are a rarity nowadays.

ILOVESPEED25 Says:

May 29, 2007 - I have taken part in traditional Hapkido, where almost every part of the class was the same as it has always been. Even some of the exercises that are done are at my former dojang(Korean dojo) are incredibly bad for your body, but are still used. Tradition is still somewhat easy to find, as long as you are taught by someone whos life is martial arts.

Aug 8, 2007 - Take your time and watch this documentary, guys. Very inspiring.

rmarcontell Says:

Sep 15, 2007 - is kendo very expensive? as far as equipment goes?

Thekatube Says:

Oct 6, 2007 - Kendo is a bit more expensive than other martial arts like karate for example. but that depends on how good quality equipment you want to buy. You can easily find equipment in very affordable prices and my opinion is that kendo is worth every penny of your money and every second of your time.

BorincanoBorincano Says:

Nov 24, 2007 - kumdo(Korea) and kendo(Japan) have big differences in the mentality used,the techniques in practice, the system of points and a few little details in the armour,and the pants (the koreans don`t use hakamas,they use something similar but i don`t remember the name of the kumdo pants.)

Mar 1, 2008 - yes it is but worth every penny I went to my kendo lesson yesterday and you will not believe how much of a buzz it gives you.

sparty0307 Says:

Apr 5, 2008 - I can imagine the "buzz" it can give you. I do karate and get quite a buzz myself after a good kumite (sparring) match.
