Are you interested in Iaido? Find out more about iaido with Tsubaki Tsubaki Kendo Club is for boys and girls aged 5 years up to 17 years, and adults up to any age – male or female – who want to learn a traditional Japanese art. Experienced or beginners are welcome, and everyone practices together. More advanced students help with the instruction of new people under senior instruction in a friendly atmosphere. We run a beginners 6 week course when numbers allow, which is an introduction to kendo. This covers how to hold a training sword (shinai); footwork; posture; correct striking; and shouting (kiai). An important part of kendo is learning the etiquette; respect for others, how to behave and the do's and don'ts in a traditional budo dojo. If you want to try, even if you are learning another budo – karate, judo, aikido or any other – just drop us a message at the email address below and we can get you started.
