Kendo

You should, I love my karate lessons (apart from the one where the sensei hit me over the head with a bokuten during our grading ¬¬).

The idea of Kendo's always tempted meh, but I'm not sure if any lessons are held around here
 
Ahh, i'd love to be able to do kendo at some point, but i've never got the time to do so. University takes up all of my time, so whenever i do find something i want to do, it piles up the work i need to do so i can't. I know there is a place in edinburgh that does it though at least if i do eventually find time.
 
If I was was going to do anything nowadays I would probably do Kuydo as it ties in with my archery. Also my back and knees are too messed up to go back into the Judo, Karate and Ju-Jitsu that I did when I was younger. Although I would love to give kendo a go I fear I would not show enough restraint and move away from prescribed techniques.
 
My dad's a 4th dan (that's three up from black belt to most people) at Shotokan Karate, and he teaches it so I used to do a lot of Karate when I was younger. I also did Aikido for a short while aswell.

I havn't done any serious martial arts for years though. I, unfortunately, sort of gave it up.
 
I used to train in Wado-Ryu Karate but stopped when I went off to uni, I tried taking up Kendo but we don't have anywhere local that teaches it :(
