Seisuikan Kendo Club Malta

09/07/2025

Last weekend we were honoured to participate in the summer training camp hosted by Nordfyns Kendo Klub "Go shi Kan" 剛志館 and led by Yukio Kato Sensei, alongside national team members and Kendoka from all around the world. It was a privilege to represent Malta and our club, Seisuikan.

We extend our sincere gratitude to Goshikan, and to all the families whose support made this experience possible.

Throughout the camp, we forged strong bonds, exchanged knowledge, and created memories that will stay with us for a lifetime. We learned, we challenged ourselves, and we celebrated together as one united community.

Until we meet, again!

2024 was a year of defining moments for Seisuikan Dojo—a year of growth, resilience, and historic achievements.

Our club embraced a new identity, standing on the foundation built by those who came before us. For their efforts and dedication, we are deeply thankful. With Jonathan Sensei stepping into his role, as the most experienced practitioner, and the watchful guidance of Filippi Sensei and Ito Sensei, our practice reached new heights. This spirit of excellence was showcased at the Wroclaw Cup in Poland, where our Kendoka returned with achievements, character, and invaluable experience.

This year’s crowning moment was undoubtedly our proud representation of Malta at the 19th World Kendo Championship, a historic first for our country. Carrying the Maltese flag and showcasing our abilities on the global stage was both an honor and a defining moment for our community. This incredible milestone was built on the foundation of dedication, passion, and a shared spirit that brought us together. It stands as a reminder of what we can achieve and motivates us to continue striving for excellence in the future.

As we finalize a venue to become our dojo’s permanent home, we invite you to support this exciting next step for Kendo in Malta. Visit the pinned post on our page to learn how you can help us grow. With your support, the journey continues, and the future looks brighter than ever!

🌟 Help Us Build a Legacy for Kendo in Malta 🇲🇹🇯🇵
🎁 Give the gift of hope, strength, and rebuilding, this season.
💖 Click here to help us build a better future for Kendo, and Malta: https://gogetfunding.com/new-dojo-for-maltese-kendo-federation-ngo/

Kendo is more than a martial art—it’s a way to forge strong individuals who contribute to society and the future of our island.

For over 20 years, the practitioners in Malta have trained and thrived despite never having a place to truly call home.

Our club membership can only cover venue rent fees, and so we need to look to community, and friends for financial help and support.

By supporting our fundraiser, you’re not just helping us build a dojo—you’re strengthening society, and future leaders both locally and around the world. Every practitioner carries the values learned in Kendo into their daily lives—at work, in society, and at home.

This is a gift that would keep on giving. We promise you that. 🙏
