Kendo

WHAT IS KENDO?

Kendo is the Japanese "way of the sword". We are a student sports society, but our practice sessions are also open to non-students. We welcome all levels, from total beginner to experienced.

Our coaches are very experienced and have practiced their art in Japan & Korea, our main coach is a 5th Dan. And other visiting coaches that are of similar senior level.

If you wish to practice kendo at the University of Essex, or even just watch a session, get in touch with us.
