SOUTHAMPTON KENDO CLUB

Southampton Kendo Club was officially founded in October 2007 by Phil McLaughlin (5th Dan), Jarrett Lawley (2nd Dan) and Daniel Rowan (Ikkyu) from the ashes of the Southampton University Club. Our inaugural training session took place on the 2nd October 2007 with a visit from Malcolm Goodwin Sensei... We are a member of The British Kendo Association (BKA) which is our national governing body. They provide gradings, instructor training and insurance for all affiliated clubs. All club instructors are fully qualified and insured through the BKA... This is a culture we promote in the club, and all our coaches and volunteers have completed diversity and inclusivity training. We always tailor the sessions to the abilities of those present, aiming to push each individual to achieve their personal best.
