Koryu rather than kendo, but I remember my teacher getting me into the jodan position and saying, "This is called raito (lightning sword)." Serious martial art, yes, 450 years of history, yes, meant for the improvement of oneself and contributing to society, I understood all that. Still, all I could think was, "This is so awesome!"
