Designed for safe, contact-based martial arts training, this Kendo bat allows beginners to explore the fundamentals of Kendo without the need for protective gear. The goal of Kendo is to touch your opponent while avoiding being touched — a concept easily practiced with this padded, easy-to-use training stick.
A unique feature of the bat is its handle, split by a central ring that clearly indicates the correct two-handed grip — a key element in Kendo technique.
Our Kendo bats are sold in pairs and come in two sizes:
Junior Kendo Bat (ages 8–12): diameter: 7cm. Length: 66cm. Weight: 330g.
Senior Kendo Bat: diameter: 7cm. Length: 72cm. Weight: 420g.
Martial arts have three dimensions which are combat, technique and self-defense. The purpose of Kendo in schools is to show that the strength ratio that is typical of martial arts can be used to stimulate the capacity for thinking. For this to happen, there must be no winners or losers, but learners.
The aim is to provide a reflection where school kendo is practiced as a game of touches, tricks and interactions. It is about touching the other in the context of adapted confrontations but respecting physical (controlling the touch) and social (respecting the other) equilibrium.
Martial arts are conceived as methods of education, and the physical and sports activities they use remain means of education. In this regard, we recommend that the practice of kendo remains supervised.
The golden rules:
- Do not hurt, do not hurt yourself, do not let hurt;
- the stake of the fight is not worth the other one' s integrity;
- free choice of partner ;
- the strongest one puts himself at the level of the other one to make him progress;
- to know how to interrupt the fight appropriately.
