SNG Kendo Excursion

hello folks, once again it is time to resume saber training. details will be posted in the other Lightsaber Workshop thread.

wat i wanna ask here is, as part of an, uh, enrichment program for the lightsaber workshop, i am thinking of organizing a little excursion, to an actual training session of kendo.

no no, i'm not asking u to participate in the actual, training, that'll be nuts, and they'll prolly have my head for even suggesting any of that. but just to come to a dojo, to observe and visually absorb a training session. i've spoken with mr producer and hopefully he and the animators could come down and take a look at the kind of actions they'll be animating and rotorscoping.

now, the usual dojo i used to go was at Changi Jap Sch, and training was every wed evenings(7.30pm to 9pm) and sunday mornings(9am to 10.30am i think) but i've spoken to mr producer and a few others, and doesnt sound feasiable. that aside, if enuf ppl are interested, there are other venues, namely NYP and NUS as those are the onli educational institutions with a Kendo club. TP used to have one, but they've closed down for sometime already i think.

once i get a gd response, i will contact the appropriate bodies to arrange a session for us to attend.

oh and who noes, attending this and the regular lightsaber workshop may even help in getting a part in the fanfilm(no promises tho)

SO who's interested? XD

 

i posted the msg late last nite, forgot to add one more thing.

this is also to build awareness on this sport/art, for those who are interested, gives them a feel of wat to expect if they ever wanted to take up kendo.

 

Whatever master hakama advises, his followers will...well..erm...FOLLOW!! duh

 

gd gd... one response so far.. how bout the others? =\

 

Well like I said, I'll go if I can make it and it doesn't clash with anything else I have on... Heh actually that doesn't sound very promising but... just let me know when and where and what time.

 

Not sure if i can make it too...

 

Can make it if it's at NYP.

 

anyway the training day/times that i've mentioned for the one at the changi jap sch, is limited to that place onli. nyp, nus all have their own days and timeslots. i guess i'll start sourcing
