How did anderson silva get disqualified when he fought okami?
Kendo is still debated today if it is an effective Art as it relies so heavily on Equipment. Before Revolvers and Lever Action Rifles it was still a very usefull form of offense and defense.Today it is good for Shows, or some self discipline. I would think that Kendo Teachers are all in Japan.

You really should head to www.kendo-world.com and view the forums to locate a dojo in your area. This is the most definitive resource around.
Do you think a 5.5ft guy can beat a 6.4ft guy in a fight?
Also, and this may sound seriously strange, you might want to check into a local chapter of the SCA. This is the "Society of Creative Anachronism" - the guys who wear armor and beat each other up with rattan stick/swords in Renaissance fairs. Believe it or not, I have recieved more actual "sparring" training from the SCA than in Kendo classes. I have learned WAY more about Japanese culture, clothing, etc etc etc than in Kendo, though Kendo training is what sparked my interest.Just a thought...hope it helps...
