Fudokan "Kendo and Iaido in the Nation's Capital"

Fudokan  "Kendo and Iaido in the Nation's Capital" Kendo is the art of Japanese swordsmanship. Fudokan, led by Rod Faghani Sensei, is an AUSKF & GNEUSK

Fudokan has a very deep meaning, based on Fudoshin -- immovable mind. Fudokan represents “the house of immovable minds.” An immovable mind is one the most important lessons of any martial art and, in fact, of life. Our immovable minds are not distracted by the acts of others that prevent us from concentrating on our goals. Fudokan dojo is built on the commitments of:

*Integrity
*Quality
*Commun

Fudkokan is a Shidogakuin Member Dojo, and Shidogakuin is led by Shozo Kato, kendo 8th dan Kyoshi and iaido 7th dan Kyoshi.
