mortal kombat theme tune gets me pumped.

Can you lot do them? I can just do a forward flip but I can't do back. I don't have the guts, i'm scared of breaking my neck. Can anyone help me find the courage to try a back flip?

Iaido is very good, I've been doing it for like a year mainly on my own.

Go for it.

Thanks, this is a really great site and I love the rank images.

Hey I just joined and this place seems cool enough to stay for a good while, hows everyone doing?

Well I wouldn't call it much of anything but me and my friend cut down his bokken so it was the size of a wakizashi and the bit of the handle we cut off I drilled a hole at the end of one side and put rope through it. Basiclly it's like a block of wood on rope and you use it to smash cans off a wall from a distance, lol.

If it's a small sword your after rather a Wakizashi or a Tanto but I wouldn't try and fight someone with a Tanto.

My first weapon was a dagger I bought for very cheap but my first MA weapon was a bokken.

https://www.blades-uk.com have a couple of great Paul Chen Tai Chi swords for pretty cheap prices. Look around there or ebay is your next best place.

I have the Sony Ericsson Z600.

It always makes me laugh when he's singing down the phone thing to his girl friend but that kids stood their instead.

I know how you feel, but that didn't stop me, I learnt myself. What I did was buy a cheap white oak Bokken and made up my own katas. I also watched videos online, looked at pictures and tried to copy what was being done in them. Eventually it will pay off and you'll be getting good in no time. If you want a bokken you can find some cheap new ones in some of the ebay shops over at ebay.
