Holiday Practice

First of all, I want to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving!  Be sure to eat lots of food, then come to practice to lose it all!

Due to the Thanksgiving, the places that we usually practice at are closed, so we will not have any practice on 11/23 and 11/27.  Practices will resume as normal until 12/25 due to it being Christmas Day. 

In the meantime, NHK World did a special on the recent All Japan Kendo Championships and they are streaming it for free until December 5th.  Enjoy!

NEW PRACTICE LOCATION!!!!!

I was able to get in contact with the people at the Martial Arts America place earlier today to talk about practicing at their location on Sundays.  Starting this Sunday, the new address for Sunday practices is:




7714 Montgomery Rd
Cincinnati, OH 45236

The dojo is located next to Sherwin Williams and in the shopping center where you see a Fifth Third bank in the front.

No Sunday Practice Until Further Notice

Our usual Sunday practice location in Newtown recently closed shop so, for the time being, there will be no practices on Sunday.  I am currently searching for a new place for us to practice, so hopefully we can start back up very soon.

Practice for Next Year's AUSKF Nationals

This is just a short reminder that, instead of having our normal Kendo and Iaido practice in Newtown this Sunday, we will be joining up with the AUSKF squad tryouts/joint practice at the College Hill Rec Center.  Practice starts at 10 AM and ends at 2 PM.

No Iaido Sunday (6/23)

Because I will be out of town this weekend, there will be no Iaido this coming Sunday, June 23rd.  I gave the key to Mark, so Kendo will go on as planned @ 9:30 AM.  If you have any questions, please let me know.

Special Kid's Practice (5/8/16)

To prepare for the AUSKF Jr. Nationals Kendo Tournament in July, there will be a special practice for the kids in Columbus this coming Sunday.  While the practice is geared towards the kids, there will be opportunities for the adults to get some practice time in as well.  There might be a dinner afterwards, but details haven't been given on that.

Ohio Sports Plus: 10 AM - 2 PM
4140 Tuller Rd # 118, Dublin, OH 43017

No Practice on 4/3

Due to most of the members being in Cleveland for the Cleveland Kendo Tournament and promotion exam and/or being unavailable to go to practice on 4/3, there will be no practice this coming Sunday.

See you guys Wednesday!

Practice Schedule For The Next Two Sundays (1/10 & 1/17)

Hey guys, I will be out of town for the next two weekends, so I won't be at practice. I plan on giving the dojang keys to Mark so Kendo will still go on as scheduled. As for Iaido, since I won't be there to open up or lead for that portion of the class, there won't be Sunday Iaido.

Wednesday classes will go on as normal.
