How to Join Ko En Kendo Kai
The best way to start kendo with our club is to join in our next beginners’ course. These are held a few times a year and are designed to get you up to speed and ready to join in with regular training sessions. The beginner’s course includes 8 weeks of club membership, which means 32 hours of training. It’s designed to take you from a complete beginner to joining in with regular training with the rest of the team.
Entry on the course costs £50. That comes to about £1.60 per hour if you attend every session, which is pretty good value! We’ll also provide you with a shinai (practice sword) included in that cost. Note that you will also need to get a temporary BKA membership for £10 so you’re insured to train. You don’t need to sort that until after you’ve signed up, just letting you know so it’s not a surprise!
Our next beginners’ course will begin on Thursday 12th June 2025, so sign up now to join!
The registration form is here. Once you’ve filled it in and sent the sign-up fee to us, we’ll buy your equipment and get your place on the course confirmed.
