Shinkendo
Shinkendo is a Japanese martial art that is based around the katana, the traditional Japanese sword. Our Shinkendo classes emphasize foot work and movement, and introduce sword techniques with the bokken, a wooden sword that represents a katana. Along with teaching some basic concepts involving movement, defense, and strategy, for our advanced students we offer tatami cutting exercises with a live blade. Check out our Shinkendo lineage page, and you can learn more about our training, and about our Shinkendo Grandmaster, Obata Toshishiro Kaiso!
