WAKABA

At Wakaba, we are keen to encourage everybody to participate in Kendo for fun and enjoyment. It is also an activity that can be practiced by people of diverse ages, genders, and with most physical conditions. This means that kendo can be a life-long pursuit, which can help shape good physical condition, values and attitudes, such as equality, fair play, and general well being... Founded in 1993, Wakaba Kendo Club is the largest children's kendo dojo in London, with about 30 registered students aged between five and eighteen years. In Japanese, Wakaba means ‛new shoots' of a plant or tree and careful cultivation of the young student's development requires dedicated, experienced and qualified teachers. Wakaba is indeed fortunate in having such teachers some of whom have been involved in the club since its creation.
