Kibo Dojo 15 years – 希望道場の15周年
Kibo Dojo was founded 15 wonderful years ago, and we want to celebrate this anniversary as much as possible—by inviting guests from near and far and hosting various festive events. This page brings together all planned activities and will be kept up to date.
Events
Sanada Kazuaki Sensei
On 2 June 2012, we had our first international visit when Sanada Sensei (7th dan) visited us for the first time. Since then, he has returned on several occasions and has also been very supportive when our members have visited Japan.
Sanada Sensei is a wholehearted kendo enthusiast who always shares his experience generously with anyone who seeks guidance.
Plan
Sanada Sensei will be with us from 29 May to 3 June. In addition to participating in our regular training sessions, we will also hold a weekend training camp at Gärdeshallen on 30–31 May. Naturally, there will also be social activities outside of kendo.
More detailed information will follow.
