I was given a DVD of a similar idea devised by an 8th Dan Iai exponent from Japan (I forget his name). It is a Samurai workout performed in hakama and keikogi and holding a two foot staff. Music plays, they perform aerobic exercises with increasingly complex moves-its actually pretty cool and I would definitely attend a class like this-if only for the potential of seeing a lycra hakama-clad young lady going through the motions!
