The spirit of Japan endures in Samurai. A Samurai is not a swordsman, but one who carries the sword in the heart. Be Samurai. Only then does Japan reveal itself. Walk the path with Kendo Spirit.

◉Why Kendo?

Kendo is not a sport born from modern design.

It is a living tradition shaped by samurai to survive, transformed to preserve Bushido, and passed down through the body, generation after generation.

It is still practiced today because its spirit is still needed.

Bushido lives on, in its purest form, through Kendo.

◉Who this experience is for

This experience is for those who are curious about Japan beyond the surface.

For those who value discipline, respect, and meaning over entertainment.

For those who want to experience the spirit of Bushido through their body, not just hear about it.

You don’t need kendo experience.

You do need an open mind and a willingness to face yourself.

You don’t start by holding a sword. You start by understanding where kendo comes from, and why the spirit of Japan lives within it. Etiquette and Respect Before training, you calm your mind and bow. Not as a formality, but as a way to face others with respect. Ki – Spirit You learn how samurai express their presence and fighting spirit, not through anger, but through focused intent. Tai – Body You practice traditional footwork that keeps the body grounded, balanced, and ready. Ken – Sword Only then do you learn how to hold the sword, how to swing it, and how to move with it. Ki-Ken-Tai-Itchi Spirit, sword, and body come together. This is the foundation of a true samurai strike. Match You put everything into practice in a real kendo match. Those with courage may challenge a veteran kendo instructor and feel the pressure up close. Demonstration Watch an intense match between instructors and witness the power and control of real kendo. Closing Etiquette After training together, everyone bows once more, carrying respect until the very end.

It was one of the best experiences of our trip to Japan. We had the opportunity to meet Daishi and Makoto who taught us Kendo and Samurai philosophy. We learned and practiced a lot. We recommend that anyone who wants to get to know the culture of Japan better take a Kendo lesson with Daishi and Makoto! They were super attentive and even gave us tips on what else to visit in Tokyo. Thank you!
This is the REAL Kendo Experience !!

If you want to experience REAL Kendo . . . and not a tourist-trap imitation . . . THIS IS the Kendo Experience that you want! The experience includes a little history and philosophy lesson. By understanding the cultural background of Kendo, you can embrace and experience the Kendo training - more fully. (as opposed to mindlessly swinging the shinai (Kendo sword). Then, it is time for training of the Mind Body and Spirit . . . the majority of the time. The instructor spoke perfectly fluent English, and the team was very patient and meticulous in their instruction. It is a safe and fun environment to get a great experience. One of the best memories of the Japan visit!

I had a fun time learning the history and teachings of kendo. Getting geared up was a bit difficult but I was helped and had an amazing experience being the only student that day. I had the time of my life playing around with the Shinai (bamboo sword) and getting to do practice matches with the instructor. Of course I was no match against someone with 20 years experience but the point of Kendo or rather any sport is not to win but to grow as a person. I would definitely do this again so I can gain more experience and confidence with my sword technique. Anyone who loves swords and action I can recommend this lesson to you.

This was a really fun thing to do. Takes a little effort as they gear you up in the full outfit so you can have a sparring match but if you don’t mind just a little effort and want to experience a sparring match with bamboo swords then this will be fun while giving you just a little knowledge and insight into the practice.
The best experience ever!

The Kendo experience was one of the best decision for our trip to Japan! The kindness, respect and passion that Daichi and his other instructor exuded was legendary. We simply loved the experience and plan to not only tell our friends about it but go there

Very good kendo introduction in 2 h and in the end you could challenge the sensei with genuine kendo armor. This one was good in many ways for a first-timer. Budo-background helps. This was very well organised and tutored. The sensei was very good at this role.
