For Friday’s practice, we again introduced new and interested members to the fundamentals of Kendo covering bowing, footwork, and the first strike: men. Additionally, we had another sparring match to serve as a demonstration for those wondering what could be achieved with hard work and consistent practice in Kendo.

We appreciate all those that have expressed interest in our club so far, and we hope to see that interest grow into a sincere commitment not just to our club, but to Kendo in general.

We would also like to give a shoutout to Zenitsu who has taken a moment from his busy schedule fighting in the Infinity Castle to train with us during our practice!
