Kendo

I went to watch Kansai Gaidai's Kendo Club practice a few times this semester. The club members were welcoming to me. Sometimes after practice, another foreign student would show me the basic movements for about an hour. My arms would be sore the following day, so I have lots of respect for the members because they can endure it.

Club dedication is very serious and expected of every member. They show their dedication by being there for practice and staying after to do laundry. Sempai and Kouhai are also use within the Kendo Club to show respect towards their seniors.
