I was searching around for videos of kendo and wrote "katana" in the google box. Now, there are good kendo (and naginata) videos out there, especially if you search their names, but 'katana' brought up a couple of.. ..odd ones..

http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...27598&q=katana

"Demonstration of use of a katana swords against four opponents with Katana swords. Includes traditional techniques and aikido oriented use of sword."

So.. ..is it just me or is the footwork wrong, the hands opposite of what they should be, his backside bent and his work generally unrelaxed? I'm only a low-level kendoka, so if this is some form of kenjutsu, iaido or jodo I wouldn't know.

I tried searching for these guys on bullshido.com, but nothing turned up.

Ugh.

It was only 54 seconds, and i couldn't stand to watch any more than half.

That was terrible.

The special promotion cupon on the special page promises two months of self-defense training in karate and aikido for $99.00, if you print out the cupon and bring it along.

I'm sure real Samurai used to do kata like that. They liked to twirl and stuff, right?

Not to mention it looked like he had a lot of blade on blade contact with his imaginary opponents to make it look better.
