Are you converted or pure
 

http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...ies/smiley.gif I am a convert. I practied Judo before but now I am happily converted to Kendo. Thank goodness, I found the light. How about you. Please vote

I'm a pureblood. My blood is indigo. However I chose the wrong on the poll :P

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 http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...es/devious.gif

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* http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...lies/silly.gif

Kendo is my first.

I took 3 years of Tang Soo Do when I was living in Alabama. Now I have fond Kendo once I got to college and I don't have any plans on leaving

kendo is my first love!!!

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.

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

Pure for me.

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

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.

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!http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...es/devious.gif
