Kendo for Self Defense ? This time around I've decided to raise what seems to be a touchy subject for many within the Kendo community . That is, the validity or practicality of Kendo in a self defense scenario and whether or not it should be "marketed" to beginners as being of particular practicle use from the persepctive of modern urban self defense. I have my views on the subject which I substantiate in the video, but I'm curious to know, what do you think ? Are you a Kendo or Iaido coach or student and do you beleive you are better equiped to deal with a violent assailant in an urban situation within the law that applies to your territory ? Shout out to Robb at Mcdojo Life, The footage of the BJJ coach defending his students from the armed "trouble maker" was from his channel. Please consider visiting his channel which tackles ethics in the martial arts community : null You can watch the entire video where the senior one of the dojo members at that BJJ dojo breaks down exactly what went down in that situation : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YV89vgQuDlo Let me know in the comments and please keep it respectful.
