I take great pride in watching videos such as these and my favorite types are the Kumites. Are American culture is lame and has some of the most dumbest of people out their. to many people listen to that crap called screamo and they actually enjoy it, as well as that crappy rap that's flying around. Your music is more that for the soul and not for cruising at 120 listening to crap rihana thinking your one bad mofo. I think Americans are just at the pit dumbass. china and japan- keep going

[MrLightYagami00]

nice. you now, i was born in America and its cool and all but we don't have the historical background that both the Japanese and Chinese have. As i sit here typing this comment I wish I was born into your culture and not into this country of a bunch of lazy people. All my life I have wanted to be a master swordsmen but, here in Arizona there's none to be found. I would gladly move to japan if it meant learning the skills to become a swordsmen.

Christian Tissier teaches wonderful kenjutsu in the context of aikido. But it is not aiki ken. Patrici Guerri teaches aiki ken.
