Tips for Traveling to Japan for Kendo

[@Kendotips]

What would you like for me to share from Japan? In the meantime if you want to watch a video to improve your kendo check this one out: kzbin.info/www/bejne/kHjXfJWLrbmFrcU

This video is a gem ! Thanks Jose for the tips - have a greeeeeeat time in Japan ! Please bring back and let us know on training routines you pick up there( especially suitable for older kendokas). Obviously, more specifics on dojos that we could visit , would be a plus, as a kendo trip in Japan is a lifetime dream for most of us! :-)

Thank you for your support, hopefully I can bring you many cool things from Japan from a Kendo Perspective.

This is the best guide for Kendo practice in Japan, that I've seen so far! I have never had the JR pass though... Did you ever consider renting a car? If you can please try out one of the many ferry connections they have in Japan. It's an awesome experience.

Any information you can share about finding dojos that are welcome to visiting kendoka (not beginners) would be helpful. Thanks!

[@Kendotips]

I am working on that, but if you do come while I am still here let me know

Do you speak Japanese? Could you share what is the experience like for someone that does not speak Japanese, when traveling to Japan for Kendo?

JR-Pass only makes sense if you visit many different areas that are far away from each other. If you stay in one area, don’t buy it, it’s waste of money.

100% agree
