Photo courtesy of A. Melton Over the last few weeks we've had a few fun events at our dojo. We hosted a shinpan seminar a few weeks ago, headed by Yotsuuye Sensei of Bellevue, and shared our dojo with a lot of visitors and kendo friends from the Seattle area. It was a wonderful event and we all learned a lot, plus it's always good to cross swords with my friends that I don't get to see that often. We've also welcome a couple of new members that came to us from Hawaii and Pennsylvania/Maryland/California, and each of them bring their own unique spirit and take on kendo, which is always appreciated. This week we are hosting a visitor from Northern Virginia Kendokai and had a great practice with him last night, and are looking forward to another practice on Wednesday before he heads home. That's one of the joys of kendo for me: making new friends and seeing new connections being made between our dojo and the rest of the kendo world. Even while watch...
