Hizen Kendo Events Blog. A New Sandan (June 2011). Congratulations to Stewart Daniels who passed his sandan grading in Vancouver. Stewart coaxes his counterpart into cutting kote allowing him to perform nuki-men, even after a long morning travelling on a ferry to get to the dojo. He reports that he is relieved to have the grading behind him and is looking forward to starting the journey as a sandan in pursuit of yondan. Welcome to the Hizen Blog. Arts of the Samurai.

Hizen Kendo Events Blog. KANGEIKO 2012 A NEW START A NEW DOJO. Day One: Paul Gray. Our new dojo has prompted a rethink on the general direction of the club and a renewed determination by our Sensei Jeff Humm to focus on the best traditional kendo practice and to insist on the highest standards of effort and etiquette in the dojo. This chimed nicely with the traditional kangeiko (News Year’s practice) theme of returning to basics. And boy, did we start with basics. Practicing our cuts – both as stat...
