I was lucky as in my country kendo is not such a rare sport as in Western ones.

I started Kendo in the university club.
Not as a club member but they had a kendo class for non kendo club members for a month during summer vacation, kind of introductory keno class.

And there I became to get a crush on the instructor (senior student) because of his coolness when practicing and teaching kendo.
( I agree that people who practice Kendo long time have such coolness but I doubt if I have grown such things in myself...)

Kendo was really beautiful and attractive sport that I had ever experienced.
I really loved the feeling in my bare feet in the dojo wooden floor, hearing my yelling reverberating, even loved the smell of dojo, you knoe the sweated bogu smell.
