The Kendo Club

Club Description

Our organization is dedicated to teaching and facilitating the practice of the sport Kendo. This includes weekly meetings where our instructors teach the sport to other students in a safe environment. Our organization also holds multiple events each year, many of which host other similar CIOs' participation, to facilitate not only learning the cultural elements intertwined with the sport Kendo, but also to allow our members to make connections with other like minded-students with similar interests. Currently, our regular meetings are multiple a week at the multipurpose rooms in various UVA recreation centers. We do not charge any mandatory fees or dues to participate in our regular meetings, meaning that joining the club is free for all UVA students. One of the goals of this organization is to prepare those interested so that by the end of the academic year, they will be able to attend regional Kendo tournaments and events with our experienced club officers.
