I'm starting a beginners kendo class tonight and would love any advice or pointers people might have.

Tape up your left foot tomorrow morning.

Also, I have the same question, except for judo. What should I expect? How much should my joints hurt the next day?

Also, just to check, glasses are a bad idea with judo, right? Like I shouldn't be wearing them?

What the hell is Shuai Chiao? We have a club on campus, and I'm all over new experiences and what not. I've never seen or heard of it before. After some googling, I see that it's like Chinese wrestling? Is this correct??

Is it normal for a judo instructor not teaching you to break fall before being thrown? Because that happened to me at my last judo class. Is this standard?

I told the guy and he said that in Judo "we learn by doing." And then a black belt yelled at me for landing wrong.

After quitting for 6 months because of too much school stress, I'm going back to kendo. Any tips for someone whose knees hurt a lot when sitting seiza? We had to sit like that for 15 minutes at a time, and I couldn't do it.

Yes. The fact that they're an actual group of dudes who take "Dog names" once they join makes it ever better.

I read on Bullshido that if you train tae kwon do you will blow your knees out. How true is this

I'm starting back up in judo after a few years of being away, get hype

For fun, I signed up for the taekwondo club at my university, and it's WTF certified. Are any of you familiar taekwondo and the WTF style? What is a normal class like?
