Question 1

Doesn't kendo cost a lot of money for armor and such?

Accepted Answer

Nowadays, I don't think it's that different compared to other sports. 
In kendo, in addition to protective gear (gloves, men, do, tare, tare name), kendo uniforms, hakama, bamboo swords, and tsuba are the minimum required for training. However, in this regard, uniforms, spikes, gloves, bats, rackets, balls, etc., in other sports, are surprisingly expensive if you think about them in detail. And I don't think there is a big difference in total cost. 
Currently, if you buy a complete set of armor and other items, it costs around 40,000 yen or more online." A bamboo sword, which is a consumable item, costs about 1,000 yen.

In addition, when purchasing, if you come to the practice and consult with us specifically, I think you can purchase a good one at a relatively low price.

Please feel free to contact us.

Question 2

I'm a complete beginner, but isn't it too late to become an adult? Do you want to improve? Isn't it hard to practice?

Accepted Answer

No matter when you start kendo, it's never too late. Also, you can continue to use it as you age. You can continue to practice in your own way and improve.

At Kenshinkai, we actively take promotion and dan examinations and encourage improvement. In addition, we also practice for those who want to participate in the game and play an active role.

Because we practice and teach according to the person, by all means, please take a look at the practice or experience it yourself.

Question 3

When can we visit? Do I have to contact you in advance?

You are welcome to come and observe the practice at any time during the practice day. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask anyone who is coming to practice.

In addition, there is no need to contact us in advance when coming for a tour. It is fine if you come suddenly. Of course, you can contact us in advance from our website or FB message.
