Seminar Prep

My sensei, Don Hebert, and I have been preparing for an intensive seminar this month with Goerge Ledgard sensei in Baltimore this month. As such, we've been wearing armor and working on full contact shinai as it relates to entering & taking the center line. Let me say, right off the bat, that working in kendo armor is hard and going at full speed can only be sustained for so long. In the end though, I think the practice has paid off, as my endurance has increased as has the sharpness of the principals that we are working on.
