We we're the only people... - We we're the only people present for our class, so we had 2 hours of private instruction by the most amazing and enthousiastic sensei. Lots of fun but be prepared to sweat!

Kendo class - history, culture and work out! - The experience was great! I learnt about Japanese History and Culture at the same time as learning the basic kendo movements. The instructor modified the class for my abilities and we finished with full sparring which was really fun! The level of English was great and the team were able to answer all of my questions. We had a lot of fun and I would definitely recommend it as a great cultural experience - and a good work out!

Awesome experience for my pre teen & teenage sons - I booked this class for my ywo sons 15 & 12 they both loved the class. My 15yo is experienced in other martial arts but my 12yo is quite gentle so I worried one will be bored and the other overwhelmed. Our sensai was fantastic he was kind and reassuring to my 12yo and he really challenged my 15yo. I loved how they both got an insight into Japanese tradition.

Fun - This was a lot of fun. It was hot in August and if i did it again id probably pick cooler weather, but it was still worth doing. Our instructor spoke excellent English and made the experience worthwhile. It was easy to get to by train.

Kendo experience with friends - Overall satisfied. Instructor gave a lot of freedom to spar each other and the training equipment was complete. However, the actual active time we got for sparring and technique drilling did not take up the entire 2 hours we booked and was closer to an hour so the instructor could have been more clear about the time of our experience.
