Definitely a worthwhile training course. With time, and practice it makes an excellent supplement for those who like myself find a traditional dojo either prohibitively expensive or distant for their needs. I would recommend additional training materials, perhaps even taking the time to attend an introductory course if available, but these bite-sized lessons are simple and easy to grasp even as a beginner. Be prepared to check yourself against the video, and rewatch several times over if you're a perfectionist like me. I'm curious about the aversion of the instructor to metal training swords (the Iaito or Mogito) but, I imagine it would be a liability issue. In sum, excellent material thus far.
