About the Yale Kendo Club

The Yale Kendo Club has existed at Yale as a club sport for over a decade.

It is undergraduate-run and primarily focused on Yale students,

but the club has also been fortunate to have many devoted outside

members.

Koushinkan, which is also the name of our annual kendo tournament,

is a reflection of Yale's motto "Lux et Veritas" (light and truth).

For those who are interested in joining the club or have any other

questions, please read our FAQ and contact David Kim .

Tuesday: 8:00 - 10:00 PM (5th floor, Room E-F)

Friday: 8:00 - 10:00 PM (5th floor, Room E-F)

All practices are held on the fifth floor of Yale's Payne-Whitney gymnasium.

Koushinkan wishes to give thanks to the following individuals

for their donations of bogu to the dojo. Without their generosity

our dojo could not have developed to the level at which we exist today.

Dan Chapman, Yushinkan

Daniel Zoot, Koushinkan

David Harrison, Boston Kendo Kyokai

Hideo Kobayashi, Kanagawa Keisatsu Tokuren

Kiyohisa Ogo, Kanagawa Keisatsu Tokuren
