[QUOTE="ShttTalkExpress, post: 2016202, member: 728482"] It seems like some martial arts, like kendo, which uses swords, aren't realistic for learning how to defend yourself. Maybe once it was, when things were handled with swords, but I mean now, why are they still taught? Is it just for tradition like im assuming it is, or are they really operating under the premise that they are teaching you how to realistically defend yourself? I'm not trying to put any styles down, I'm just curious. [/QUOTE]
