Greetings all,
I have a question I was hoping one of you might be able to help me with. While I've been interested in the sword arts ever since i was 10 or so, I moved around a lot when i was younger and never took the time or chance to find a good dojo where I could discern whether or not it was an art for me.
In any case, now that I've returned to my home country and am set to live here for a while I've started looking into training possibilities for kenjutsu. I found a contact a year ago, but it seemed a little fraudulent, so I decided not to pursue it.
Now I've come across kendo kai higashi, a kendo/jodo/iaido/kenjutsu dojo in a school gym.
On the one hand they say they've been around for 15 years, so my guess is that they're probably on the level or they wouldn't have been around for so long.
On the other hand, the prices on the website are still in dutch guilders (which we stopped using 2 years ago) and there don't seem to be any qualifications listed whatsoever. I think their kendo seems legitimate, but I'm uncertain about their jodo and katori shinten ryu.
So, to cut a long story short, if any dutchies out there, or other who perhap have connections in dutch koryu bujutsu, could help me in establishing their legitimacy, I'd be most grateful.
thanks in advance,
