Using chains to train with is never a good idea. There are the health and safety concerns, legal concerns, life and death concerns. It shouldn't matter if "everyone is careful", or "no-one is swinging it wildly", accidents happen - easily with a heavy metal chain.
This may well be the last post of the blog since there isnt much point going to classes where your safety is put in danger and no regard for it is taken. I'm sure that in feudal Japan training with a sharp sword was a great idea, but then someone invented Kendo with its pads and wooden swords - for a good reason?
Most martial arts are very carefully regulated and have insurance and make sure that the student has insurance. For a good reason?
How does using a chain help one train anyway? Good for dodging chains, poor for replicating roundhouse kicks as kicks behave differently to chains.
