It is a plan to enjoy Kendo experience casually. Begin with bow and end with bow. Kendo is rooted in Japan as a martial art that not only competes for winning and losing, but also grows “mind, skill, and body” through respect for the other party and the dojo and self-development attitude. In this plan, all the tools are prepared at Rental so that anyone can feel free to experience. Feel free to join us as souvenirs are also included.
Both venues are located in the center of Hiroshima City, so you can feel free to experience them during sightseeing. An English interpreter will also be provided, so please ask more and more what you are interested in. Wed / Fri (19: 30-21: 00) Hiroshima City Kokutaiji Junior High School Gymnasium Sat (17: 00-19: 00) Hiroshima Fukuromachi Elementary School Gymnasium
After using the Kendo towel for the experience, you will be asked to take it home as a souvenir. In Kendo, before wearing a face, a special towel called a face towel is wrapped around the head. In addition to fixing the surface and absorbing sweat, it also has the meaning of showing one's strong will to practice. Tenugui dyed with various Japanese patterns and kanji can also be enjoyed as Japanese art.
At the time of the experience, you can purchase a new bamboo sword (with a brim) for 2,400 yen / piece. Please purchase it to commemorate your experience. Bamboo swords are literally a substitute for Japanese swords made of bamboo. Bamboo split into four pieces is bundled, and the grip is covered with cowhide, which is finished by the old-fashioned method. It weighs 370g and is 115cm long, so it's light and reasonably long, so it's very easy to carry around. Please let us know in advance if you wish to purchase.
