How to get to Homerton College (CB2 2PH)

Kendo is very hard, not so much physically as in terms of spirit and dedication, but also extremely rewarding. If you are intrigued, we hope you will join us on the Open Day to find out more about this fascinating aspect of Japanese culture.

At the Open Day, you will see all the weapons and equipment used in kendo, both shinai-based free sparring and formal kata practice. You may just watch or even try your hand at it after the demonstration. If you wish to try kendo, please come in loose sport clothes and clip your toenails since practice is done in barefoot. We will lend you all the necessary equipment for the day. You may leave early if you wish, but the Open Day tends to be very popular so please arrive punctually.
