What is kendo?

Focused, explosive and for everyone

Kendo was developed in the 17th century to train body and mind in times of peace as well. You practise with the shinai, a bamboo sword, and work on your fitness, posture, concentration and self-discipline.

With some 5 million practitioners, kendo is the largest martial art in Japan. You can practise it at any age, recreationally or competitively.
