Summaries

Summary Sentence: Come join the kendo club for a sword demonstration by top-tier sensei! After the demonstration, we will open the floor to socialize, discuss Japanese culture, and enjoy food!

Full Summary: No summary paragraph submitted.

We will have several high-ranking sensei perform a kendo demonstration that displays several different types of kendo, including nito-ryu (2-sword style) and chuudan no kamae (essential kendo stance which balances offense and defense perfectly). After the demonstration, we will open the floor to questions, then our members will share something they love about Japan. Attendees must respect the rules of our dojo and remove their shoes during the entirety of the event.

This event has been canceled.
