It amazes me that people think behavior in kendo is so much above other sports/arts. At a recent tournament I saw coaching from the sideline in english, japanese and korean. Certainly there was some celebrating as well. And the coaching was done by sensei who know it is against the rules.

You stay in kendo long enough and you will see the good, the bad and the ugly. Am I a saint, not by a long shot. At one time or another I have been guilty of behavior that should have been better. That's why I keep going, to try and better myself. Some day it will happen.
