    I'm pretty sure it's just an assurance that any blood spilled during practice will be STD free. However, that doesn't keep it from being a strange quality to aikido practice.

    Purchasing Tabi

    I am one of those people who have low ceilings in the house so it's hard to do some Kendo practice inside. I can do the suburi inside, but I guess it would be nice to practice outside. I have...
