Kendo is the sport of Japanese fencing, which has evolved from the traditional sword arts to its current form. The Kendoka practices with a bamboo sword called a shinai, the goal of practice being to score strikes in designated areas on the opponent while representing all proper key elements. The Cambridge Team is dedicated to learning and propagating this martial art in our city and to act as representatives of Cambridge at Kendo competitions and functions. Regular weekly classes in Kendo are held at the Centre with other practices and events including exchanges with other Kendo dojos, regular local and national competitions and demonstrations.
