Kendo is a competitive sport by nature. This means that you will almost always need an opponent in order to practice kendo. It is not impossible to practice kendo outside of the dojo or by yourself, but it is extremely difficult. Especially considering the fact that unless you know what you are doing, odds are, you will do something wrong to mess up your form that will take you a long time to un-learn. The information presented in this website cannot replace the hours spent at the dojo under a qualified instructor. However, much of the information presented here might not be available at the dojo due to time and resource constraints in a group teaching environment. Additionally, there is an aspect to learning kendo that is done by mentally processing the information absorbed during the practice. The purpose of this website is to present the information that would, ideally, be learned at the dojo or from a practice session. These information are solely for the purpose of preparation or reflection before and after a practice session in a dojo. With that said, there are also plenty of information here that would save you from having a bad experience in a dojo during your practice. For instance, when a group of beginners began their first class, they do not always know how to sit properly, how to speak to the senseis properly, how to bow in and bow out, etc.. The scenarios presented in this website may not reflect what happens at every dojo. However, it follows the general flow of many dojos including most of those that I have attended.
