Why did I start this blog

Recalling that a friend of mine did some japanese sword martial art I decided to find out if it was something for me. Trying to discovery what Iaido training was really about on the web was incredibly difficult and I was convinced that Jodo (which I discovered through inquiries at a local dojo) barely even existed. Equally so there was very little information about starting martial arts let alone the japanese variety known as Budo. So I decided to change this with my blog.

What I want to achieve

I want to give people an insight into what training in Budo is like and what the benefits of doing so are. In addition I want to provide a valuable source of information for those considering starting a journey into Budo or who have just begun.

About me

Born in ‘86 I started my Budo training in Seitei Iaido and Seitei Jodo under the Australian Kendo Renmei in ‘07. Before that I had only been interested in martial arts from watching films by the likes of Jackie Chan and Jet Li. Most of my time was spent playing basketball, reading about psychology and working with software. Later I went to university and got my Bachelor in Software Engineering. Where will my future be? Who knows, but I think my Budo will play a prominent role and I want to share it with you.
