Enter the world of Kendo at DKU, one of the select universities in China that embraces the profound discipline and spirit of this traditional Japanese martial art. Since our inception in 2018, the DKU Kendo Club has been committed to imparting high-caliber Kendo training to enthusiasts and practitioners seeking to master the sport. Our primary objective is to train our club members for excellence, equipping them to undertake the rigorous Kendo Level Examination and to forge a formidable DKU Kendo Team capable of competing in university-level Kendo tournaments.
At the heart of our club is the weekly training regimen, a symbol of our dedication, hosted every weekend in the Sports Complex. These sessions are intricate blends of basic technique drills and spirited sparring, all meticulously performed with the protective gear.
