Andre-sensei visited Bacolod Kenshi Shurendan for keiko ✨

Thankful for the connections that Kendo creates! 🌸🐺

🙏🌸 Our club is graced once again by Andre Sensei’s presence. We are always grateful for the guidance and lessons imparted to us during your visits. Arigatou gozaimasu, Sensei!

We would also like to thank Bacolod Tay Tung High School for allowing us to hold this training within their school premises. We truly appreciate your support in helping us continue our practice and growth in kendo. 🙇

Stepping onto a new floor always brings fresh energy! 🌸✨

Today’s keiko took us to Pretty Huge BGC, and trading our usual spot for a world-class multi-sports facility definitely raised the intensity.

Huge thank you to the team at Pretty Huge for having us! We’re leaving this session tired, inspired, and ready for the next one! ✨🔥 #

After keiko activities 😂🌸

19/08/2026

📣 KEIKO CANCELLED: 19 AUGUST 2026 🙇

Please be advised that Kendo practice for today, Wednesday 19 August 2026, is CANCELLED due to the persistent monsoon rains (habagat) enhanced by and poor road safety due to flooding in some areas of Metro Manila.

The safety of our members and their families always comes first. Please stay safe and dry! 🏠🌧️

The only way to get better at Kendo is to practice more! Join our Weekday Classes for experienced Kendoka.

📆 Mondays and Wednesdays, 7:30pm-9:00pm at 4F Dance Studio, Treston International College, BGC.

🙋‍♀️❓Are the weekday classes open to Beginners (without bogu)?
While we don’t discourage beginners from attending our Monday/Wednesday sessions, please keep in mind that the practice is tailored to experienced Kendoka. Without a dedicated sensei for basic training, it may be difficult for less experienced members to get the specific guidance they need in the fast-paced environment of the weekday classes.
