The Philosophy of Kendo

“Through the rigorous practice of Kendo, inner strength and character are developed. Such is the true path of Kendo.”

Also through the practice of Kendo, mental readiness is established. “Kendo training is to be taken very seriously and done properly. Mind and body are cultivated through vigorous training. This will in turn bring vitality to the mind and spirit. The uniqueness of Kendo teaches us respect, discipline and faith. In order to accomplish this, we must always give our all until our powers are exhausted. In an even broader sense, one must learn through the practice of Kendo to love our country, but also to promote peace and harmony on earth.”

Message of Greeting

Tsutomu Nakagawa, Consul General

Consulate General of Japan in Detroit

On behalf of the Consulate General of Japan in

Detroit, I would like to welcome all of the kendo

participants and their supporters to the 21st Annual

Detroit Open Kendo Tournament.

We would like to also welcome two kendo masters this year, Kendo Kyoshi

8-Dan, Yoji Ishida and Kendo Kyoshi 7-Dan Mariko Ishida. I hope that all of

the kendo practitioners here can learn from their experience.

On this occasion, we wish to thank Kendo Hanshi 8-Dan, Yoshiteru Tagawa,

for his more than 40-year contribution to both the national and local kendo

community. Tagawa-sensei’s love and respect for kendo has been shared

with several generations of students. Since opening the Detroit Kendo Dojo

in 1996, Tagawa-sensei has taught and demonstrated kendo around the state.

His instruction and overall passion have helped expand regional interest in

kendo.

The moral lessons and spiritual strengthening that are developed through the

practice of kendo cannot be overstated. I’m sure that all of today’s

competitors have worked hard to prepare for this tournament and have

respect for the philosophy of kendo. I hope that this event will encourage

audience members to take up the practice of kendo and expand the bonds of

friendship between Japan and the United States.

The Ten Virtues of Kendo By: Sasaburo Takano Sensei

1) A healthy body is a must. You must maintain good health and vitality in every part of your body 2) Develop a strong spirit. Your skill and spirit must be in perfect harmony. This will enable you

to adapt and to cope with even the harshest of environments. 3) Training is critical. Your mind, spirit, hands and feet are to combine to work as one. Practice

diligently to attain this. 4) Experiment and use your mind. Doing this will bring you closer to enlightenment as well as

improve your skill and techniques. 5) Fundamental Training. Practicing basic techniques must be done properly. Posture, stance, grip,

line of sight, footwork, attacking are critical. If you do not take these seriously, your skills will not evolve.

6) Always train with a focused spirit. Your spirit controls your body. Whether it is during practice or tournaments, always maintain a focused spirit and put forth your best effort.

7) Train with passion from beginning to end. You will encounter many hardships and suffering. Kendo is a lifelong commitment. If you train without putting forth your best effort, you will not reap all of the benefits of Kendo.

8) Do not become conceited or overconfident. Whether it is in your Kendo, your education, or even in your career, arrogance is the root of all failure. This kind of attitude is the greatest detriment to your training.

9) Maintain purity in your soul. Anger, deception, selfishness are enemies to your training. The path of Kendo is to train seriously in order to build character.

10) Live the way you train. Do not separate what you learned in Kendo from your everyday life. It is unfortunate if this happens. The keeping the path of Kendo and the path of life as one, you will benefit greatly.
