Deb, loved your diplomatic comment lol too bad I can`t give ya more rep at this time!!!!
Depends how much time and effort to each dojo, person, puts into it. I had a very solid grounding in
it from Idaho Kendo Kai and Stroud Sensei! However not as much emphasis is put on it here in Japan.
So on a good day I can remeber up to number 5! 6 and 7 need a bit more practice. Haven`t learned the kotachi
forms yet! When I took my Ikkyu here in Japan, did get signaled out as having best kata presentation out of everyone!
Alot of it has to do with getting timing and distance right! Anyways good luck and just keep following up and working with them!
