I haven't heard of a formal Taoist temple that dares to let students practice cohabitation with real swords and spears.
This kind of thing happened in the early years when the kendo hall was generally not very formal. Now there will never be any serious kendo hall for students to live together again.
Then analyze kendo and iaido for LZ.
The main feature of kendo is to wear protective gear and fight with bamboo knives, which is quite antagonistic. Relatively speaking, the requirements for people's physical quality and physical strength are also stronger. The most important thing is that I often wear my skin when I first practice, which hurts a little. Just stick to it slowly. Others say that kendo exercises will grow muscles, which is sheer nonsense.
First, practicing kendo won't lose weight, and second, kendo won't turn you into a muscle. So what is the function of kendo? It is a state of balance, and the human body is adjusted in this state. In other words, overweight people will become thinner, and thin people will gain weight, but they will eventually stay at a relatively healthy value. In other words, the role of kendo is to enhance the overall quality of the human body and have a healthy body.
Iaido's main feature is his powerful martial arts performance. No antagonism, beautiful, standardized and fashionable movements. People who practice iaido for a long time will be very energetic and have outstanding temperament. In addition, iaido will not cause any sports injury to the body except for a lot of movements in the front seat, which is why it is more suitable for girls to practice. However, it should be understood that it is difficult to get started with iaido, which requires a certain sports foundation, preferably a kendo foundation.
It is suggested that LZ practice kendo for a while, and it is not too late to try to live together after the quality of kendo is improved.
It's not too late for p.s. to start practicing at 26. After all, the purpose of our practice is to keep fit, which doesn't mean we are the best in the world or anything. . . It's okay to be a little late. We have been practicing since we were in our forties. You are not late at all.
P.s.p.s. is responsible for what you say. Don't comment on what you haven't practiced and mislead new people.
