Great kendo experience! We learned the basics, the different postures and the first movements, with very good explanations. It was really interesting, fun and super immersive. We loved the experience, I recommend 100%! 🥋✨

The master Hayashi is very didactic to teach you the basics of Kendo. You will explore the protocol, the footwork, the swing, how to hit and how to fight during a match. It is definetely a great experience. Go for it :-)
My son and grandson raved about the experience. Then my grandson was able to get a connection to purchase his much anticipated Gatana. They both would highly recommend this activity.
Well organized, fun for kids and adults. The instructor is a 7th dan kendo máster. You go from 0 to kendo strikes in a short time!
Our guide and instructor helpfully met us at the station. He has 30 year experience in Kendo. For us, two adults with no martial arts experience and our teenage son who is a black belt in TaeKwonDo the class was pitch perfect. We learnt the basic Kendo etiquette, steps, strikes and fights all in full kendo uniform. Thank you - would definitely recommend!
it was a very interesting and fun experience. they were very good teachers and were very informative on kendo.
Our instructor was professional, thoughtful and patient with our family. He answered all of our questions and we had a chance to spar with each other for awhile. I highly recommend the experience!!
We had a wonderful Kendo experience at Seido-Kan. Felt very authentic and our instructor shared much of his talent and passion for Kendo. An experience and memories for a lifetime. Thank you!
Excellent fun for the whole family! The teenagers have thoroughly enjoyed it. The instructor was very knowledgeable, explained well the exercises as well as cultural background. Highly recommended if you want to experience something different than visiting the temples. The meeting point was not 100% clear to us, it may be worth mentioning that you meet the instructor outside of the train station.
