★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 515 reviews · from $131Our pick

Try beginner Kendo in Osaka with real armor, an English lesson in a traditional dojo, and digital photos and videos included.

“Woww.... what a great experience. If there wher 10 stars I would give it. I came with my daughter 12y. We arrived to a cool authentic dojo. Everything was shiny clean. We learned a little about KenDo history and then move to practice. Every thing was adapted to the level with a friendly but very professional attitude. We started slowly and then moved to dry practice and with full body armor. We learned technics and try actual sparing. Toshi san and Kumiko were great and professional. We enjoyed so much. Thanks for a life experience.”
