Oh man, how many times is this going to happen...

I wonder if there's a record of the number of injuries incurred by noobs studying JSA with real swords - injuries to themselves, to their partners, and any other innocent bystanders..........

I am so glad that I didn't go into kendo with preconceived notions about my abilities to handle a sword. My senseis are both very good instructors and have been very patient towards my learning. I'm not sure they're going to dispair of me, but I sometimes wonder if I'm going to dispair of myself for repeating the same mistakes.........
