Kendo at UGA

On Thursday the 25th, we will be having an info-session and meeting in the lobby of Ramsey at 5:30PM. I would like for all returning students as well as new students interested in the club to attend, as we will discuss scheduling and other challenges relevant to all members. Hope to see you there! -Yuki

Tonight, Kendo at UGA will be doing a demonstration for the University of North Georgia international showcase. There will be no practice today. We will resume our normal schedule on Monday. -Yuki

We are changing Monday's practice time to 6:30-8PM, starting today, March 31. The location will still be Studio B. Stay tuned for any possible last-minute changes to location. -Yuki

Hello fellow Kendoka. Because Studio D is reserved tonight, we will be practicing in Raquetball Court 6. Sorry for any inconveniences. - Elvis

Practice tonight will be held in a different room from our normal schedule. Look for us in a racquet-ball court downstairs. -Yuki

Thanks to everyone who helped at today's winter activity fair! I would like to remind everyone that practice is at Ramsey every Monday, 7:30-9:00pm in Studio B and Thursday, 7:30-9:00pm in Studio D. Occasionally there will be a changes in the schedule, so please check the Facebook page before coming to class. Please wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothes to practice! Hope to see everyone at practice tomorrow! -Dru

I would like for everyone in gi to look into buying bogu soon. Below are a few recommended sites with some great sales going on. I don't consider any of the sets on these sites to be "too cheap," but I ask that you consider going for the best one within your budget (e.g. go for the 4mm instead of the 6mm, if you can afford it). Feel free to ask questions or consult me before a purchase. -Yuki http://www.ninecirclesusa.com///Ready_Made_Bougu_Sets.aspx... http://www.alljapanbudogu.com/kendo-bogu/ https://www.tozandoshop.com/kendo-equipment-bogu-s/432.htm

Due to an emergency, I will not be able to attend class tonight. Students are more than welcome to meet and practice at the allotted time. Sorry for the late notice, and we will resume with our regular schedule on Thursday the 23rd. -Yuki

For students that are still in town, I will be in Ramsey tomorrow for an informal kendo workout session. That's Thursday 12/12 from 5~6:30PM, Studio B. Join me for enough suburi, footwork, and kiai to get us through the break! -Yuki Desouza

Welcome back from Thanksgiving break! We are continuing with our normal schedule this week. Come out to take a break from studying, we will also discuss practice arrangements for next week (our last week of the semester) and hear ideas for any potential wrap up activities. -Yuki Desouza

Now that we're all set for gi, here's something we need to start looking into:
