Registrations are now live for the 2026 Big Chill!

The Big Chill is Australia's southernmost winter kendo event and it will be led this year by Damian Carmody-Stephens (7th Dan kyoshi). Damian Sensei has a strong background in high performance kendo, having represented Australian and coached both the Australian and Singaporean national teams.

The weekend's schedule will include mawarigeiko on Friday night, a seminar on Saturday, and on Sunday we'll cap the weekend off with a sunrise suburi and polar plunge session on the beach, followed by the chance to win the fabled Golden Rosella at the Southern Showdown kachinuki taikai.

This event is open to anyone who is a current member of the Australian Kendo Federation (or any equivalent associations elsewhere in the world).

Up for a challenge? Register now and tell your friends (especially the cool ones).

See you when the snow falls 🔥❄️🔥
