What do I bring/wear?

Just yourself.

Try and wear loose fitting clothes that will not restrict your movement and pants that will not drag on the floor 

Tracksuit bottoms and a T-shirt are perfect. Please be aware that Kendo is practised with bare feet.

You should also bring some water or other suitable drink. Single sex shower facilities are available so soap and towel is handy.

We have an extensive collection of Shinai (training swords) of varying sizes. Spare bokken (hardwood training swords), even a few spare suits of armour. So please do not bring your own weapons.

IMPORTANT : We do not want people to turn up with swords. We use wooden weapons for fencing and these will be supplied for you.
