5. HONESTY:
Fukasa-Ryu Samurai Sword Training is unique because it does not squeeze money from students with pay-for tournaments, expensive training equipment, and hidden costs. The focus is not on trophies and earning a rainbow of belts but on traditional training. After initial costs (uniform, belt, weapons) costs are minimal but the rewards are great.
