Kendo is practiced daily throughout Japan by millions of people. Kendo is a combative sword art accomplished with a bamboo (shinai) sword. Kendo teaches you "how to" hone your mind and body together creating confidence and a stronger demeanor. Shihan Dana Abbott's kendo program will teach you how to employ simple instruction techniques in your kendo classes.
Shihan Dana Abbott's kendo instructors' program not only focuses on the combative strikes, blocks and evasions practiced for years in traditional kendo, but the program also teaches the traditional Zen Nihon Kendo Renmei Kata, the Zen Nihon Kendo/Iaido Renmei kata and includes instruction on refereeing a kendo match for those who are interested. Even experienced instructors will benefit from Samurai Sports kendo instructors' program.
