orignally
taekwondo
hapkido
ninjutsu meditation
kickboxing

then I read the Tao of Jeet Kune Do and that drastically changed my view on the MA

Now 8 yrs later.....
Kendo till the end

3years wado-ryu karate and some jiu jiutsu before but I'm thinking of doing some other martial art next to kendo when I can choose between aikido, iaido or starting with karate again.

It does take alot of time to do something good.

I first would like to achieve a certain level of kendo that I feel confident with it myself.

*insert some stupid "losing of martial arts virginity" phrase here*

Kendo is my first.

Wasn't interessted in martial arts until I realized that we had a kendo club in my hometown. I started to practice as soon as the summer break was over. 4 years later I'm still in to kendo and even live in Japan.

**Hmntezmb** · 11-13-2005, 12:43 PM

1.5 years or so of aikido, a long hiatus from MA then around age 14 I went into kendo.

**Enrobrorb** · 11-13-2005, 09:04 PM

Pure for me.

I never had an interest in martial arts untill I was introduced to kendo.

**goatteatromiag** · 11-13-2005, 09:38 PM

I've always had an interest in martial arts in general, but Kendo is only one I've ever actually studied. And I'm in love. So much so that as I type this, I am wearing the do of the (heavily) used club bogu I was granted just on Friday and I'm thinking I haven't smelled anything this good since my wife. Really.

Originally: Taekwando

But now a very happy convert.

**Bejemoelemymn** · 11-15-2005, 02:48 AM

10+ years JuiJitsu.
Always had kendo in the back of my mind as something to do when I get Older.
Well last year I realized I was old! and sick of the constant injuries after JuiJitsu training. Now after 1 year of kendo I realize that injuries are something to you can live with as long as your motivated enough.

Thank You Kendo for new motivation and different injuries!
