ENGLISH BELOW.
Tijdens het jaarlijkse Japanmarkt-festival in Leiden op 24 mei 2026 was er een overvloed aan Japans cultureel erfgoed te zien, waaronder een scala aan Japanse krijgskunsten in het Rijksmuseum van Oudheden. Daar mocht Kendo Kai Den Haag niet ontbreken met de jaarlijkse iaido- en jododemonstratie.
Onder leiding van Aad v/d Wijngaart Sensei, 7e dan Kyoshi van Kendo Kai Den Haag, werd het publiek geboeid met de uitleg, geschiedenis en toepassing van het Japanse zwaard, en hoe de stok zich daartegen kan verdedigen. Neem zelf een kijkje bij de demonstratie van 2027. Tot dan!

During the annual Japan Market festival in Leiden of may 24th 2026, there was an abundance of Japanese cultural heritage to be seen, including a plethora of Japanese martial arts at the Nationale Museum of Antiquities. It was up to Kendo Kai Den Haag to demonstrate both jodo and iaido at this event, as is tradition.
Under the guidance of Aad v/d Wijngaart Sensei, 7th dan Kyoshi of Kendo Kai Den Haag, the audience was captivated with the history, explanation, and application of the Japanese sword and how a simple staff can defend against it. Have a look for yourself at the next demonstration in 2027. See you then!

Individuals formed teams of three, sometimes from different dojos. Out of the dozens of combatants a total of 8 from Kendo Kai Den Haag participated and of which most won a (gold!) medal.
The winnings are as following:

Jodo team gold medalists

Piotr, Jeppe, Alexandra

Jodo team silver medalists

These amazing results would not have been achieved without the teachings, guidance and support of all Kendo Kai Den Haag sensei.
