I have decided to take up a weapons martial art, for a couple of reasons, and I am determining what sort of style would suit me best. I want to both improve my discipline, and learn how to defend myself with a sword. I am 6 feet 4 inches, and very slender, so my reach is great, but I wont have the power of someone larger than me. I am willing to commit a long time to learn an art, so that's not a problem. I was just wondering what kind of sword and technique combo might fit me well. Also, I do have a background in karate, and I want to integrate hand to hand arts with my sword usage. Do you guys have any ideas?
What type of sword martial art is right for me?
