and welcomes to the forum 8)
im glad you took the time to get involved, and We'll chat again soon....youl probably see my replys or posts on the sword forums also as im an Iaito practitioner as well as a ju-jitsuka.....(funny old word)
at present i am most happy doing sword kata... The only problem is... you dont need agreat deal of space to practice ju-jitsu....where as Iaido is a diffrent matter...altogether (i live in a flat)...not the ideal environment for practice LOL

I'll probably end up chopping up furnature...or MUCH more importantly damaging my sword....
.still i manage to get some practice outside at night in my back garden
Its obviouse to me that you guys know what you are talking about, and Banzie i have wanted to do Aikido for a long time but unfortunately there are no classes in my area of Kent....i have practiced iki-jutsu (which i think Is similar...but closer to Ju-jitsu) but any art that involves using your apponents wheight and speed against him im all for as effective combat teqnique
