5-0 out of 5 stars Truly Witty: Tristan Kendo Has Produced a Modern Masterpiece
I was at first intrigued by the title of Tristan Kendo's collection of poetry and this was my initial reason for buying it.Soon, however, I became entranced by his wit and hyper-energetic activity.The poems, initially appearing simplistic, reveal a depth of character now rare in contemporary poetry. Both poignant and inspiring, they are a pleasure to read.This is a brilliant, complex and compelling analysis of emotions and their significance in personal and social life.Kendo is a masterly thinker of immense learning whose convincing argument culminates in the affirmation of the daily reality of the reader.Pick up Tristan Kendo's book-- it will make you laugh and cry all night long.

5-0 out of 5 stars Great for ANY player...
I love this book because you don't just read it once. The first thing I did was look at all the pictures. Next, I read the introduction. Then, I read the teamwork section. Then, I read the conclusion. Then, I tried someof the drills. Then, I showed the plays to my coach. And I still use thisbook, it's not just sitting on my bookshelf. This book will last you a longtime, and is well worth the money. It's great for ANY basketball player,and it's even more ideal if the basketball player is an NBA fan. ... Read more

Product Description
High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Zen Nippon Kendo Renmei Iaido is the iaidō style of the All Japan Kendo Federation. This style of iaido is also often known as Seitei Iaido and Zenkenren Iaido. There are many schools of iaido and many forms of iaido kata. To popularise iaido and to make it easier for kendo practitioners to learn iaido, an expert committee was established by the AJKF to review the situation. The committee subsequently selected the basic techniques from major iaido schools to form the curriculum of Zen Nippon Kendo Renmei Iaido. The AJKF was founded in 1952, immediately following the restoration of Japanese independence and the subsequent lift of the ban on martial arts in Japan. In 1969, the AJKF introduced its seitei curriculum of seven iaido kata. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Fundamental Kendo - condensed version.
I agree that this book is the first of its kind.However, its worth is mostly in its collector's value.There is so much of its contents that is out-of-date, not to mention the errors, that the going price hardly worth it; although, I have to admit that I have yet to see another book on kendo that comes close to quality and practical value of Fundamental Kendo.There is good news, however.The All Japan Kendo Federation has published a condensed version in two soft cover books under the title `Kendo Fundamentals - Condensed Publication'.Volume 1 (58 pages) is subtitled `Kendo Equipment, Courtesies, Basic Movements'.Volume 2 (120 pages) is subtitled `Personal Attack and Defense Skills.Training (Keiko).'Amazon may be able to special order these books, or you can try contacting the All Japan Kendo Federation.

5-0 out of 5 stars Well, THIS is kendo.
I'm lucky. I have one. My kendo master offered me a shinning new copy about two months ago. Beg, borrow or steal it. Sell your car and your house; sell your mother and/or your wife; if your serious about your kendo, I dont know how, but you must get a copy of the book. You won't regret it.

5-0 out of 5 stars One of the best reference books for kendo practitioners.
It is unfortunate that this book is out of print.This was once the required text for the International Summer Kendo Seminar held each year in Saitama, Japan.It is one of the best reference books for kendopractitioners.It contains step-by-step instructions and photographs onbasic kendo techniques and kendo kata.It also covers basic history,philosophy, and tournament rules and regulations in an easy referenceformat.You may hear rumors of an updated version in the works, but Iwouldn't hold my breath.This rumor has been around for as long as thebook has been out of print.Although some of its content is outdated, itis still worth getting a copy, if you can find one.There were versionsprinted in Japanese, English, and French.

Kendo is a physically and mentally challenging activity that combines strong martial arts values with sport-like physical elements. Practitioners of kendo are called kendōka ), meaning "one who practices kendo", or occasionally kenshi ), meaning "swordsman". There are estimates that about six million people world-wide practice kendo, with approximately four million in Japan, one million in Korea, and more in Europe, North America, South America and other countries of Asia. The "Kodansha Meibo" (a register of dan graded members of the All Japan Kendo Federation) shows that as of September 2007, there were 1.48 million registered dan graded kendōka in Japan. According to the survey conducted by the All Japan Kendo Federation, the number of active kendo practitioners in Japan is 477 thousand in which 290 thousand dan holders are included. From these figures, the All Japan Kendo Federation estimates that the number of "kendōka" in Japan is 1.66 million by adding the number of the registered dan holders and the active kendo practitioners without dan grade.

Excerpt:Shint Mus -ry , or Shind Mus -ry ( ? ) is a traditional ( kory ) school of the Japanese martial art of j jutsu , the art of handling the Japanese short staff ( j ). The art was created with the purpose of defeating a swordsman in combat using the j , with an emphasis on proper distance, timing and concentration. Additionally, a variety of other weapons are also taught. The art was founded by the samurai Mus Gonnosuke Katsuyoshi ( , fl. c.1605, dates of birth and death unknown) in the early Edo period (1603 1868) and, according to legend, first put to use in a duel with Miyamoto Musashi ( , 1584 1645). The original art created by Mus Gonnosuke has evolved and been added upon ever since its inception and up to modern times. The art was successfully brought outside of its original domain in Fukuoka and outside of Japan itself in the 19th and 20th century. The spreading of Shint Mus -ry beyond Japan was largely the effort of Takaji Shimizu ( Shimizu Takaji , 1896 1978), considered the 25th headmaster. With the assistance of his own students and the cooperation of the kendo community, Shimizu spread Shint Mus -ry worldwide. Timeline of the Shint Mus -ry Mus Gonnosuke - Founder Main article: Muso Gonnosuke Mus Gonnosuke Katsuyoshi , founder of Shint Mus -ry (Image from the Buko Hyakunin Isshu).
