IKSU kendo

Fight together, defeat yourself!

Kendo, the Japanese martial art where you spar with a shinai (bamboo sword). A sport for the mind, heart, and body.

Kendo has its origins in the training of the Japanese samurai. Not only their techniques but also much of the ancient code of honor and etiquette has been preserved into modern times. In today’s training, however, we have replaced the samurai’s katana with the more forgiving shinai, a bamboo sword that allows us to train with full force without injuring our training partners. Today, kendo is a technical sport with no weight classes, where both girls and boys, as well as juniors, train and compete together.
