LinksUseful iaido and kendo links
Be aware that when browsing the net or You Tube for Iaido or Kendo related things, unfortunately the best and most accurate information is in Japanese. Its amazing the difference in results you get if you do a search in Japanese for iaido （居合道） or in English. A good percentage of the information and footage available in English varies between a little mistaken and completely ludicrous. There are however a lot of good English sites on the web, you just need to look around for them. Just remember that anything which looks a little too flashy or exciting, probably isn’t so realistic.
