Kendo
Kendo, or "the way of the sword", is the martial art of Japanese fencing. Kendo has its roots in the traditional Japanese swordsmanship techniques of the samurai.
Kendo is practiced using bamboo swords called shinai. Extensive body armor (bogu) is worn to protect specified target areas on the head and body. Students may also use bokken or bokuto (wooden swords) when practicing forms and other skills.
Fire and Water students who wish to pursue Kendo should purchase their own shinai, but armor is available for both youth and adult participants.
