Welcome

The Mississauga Kendo Club is a collection of individuals from many diverse backgrounds who are dedicated to the practice of Kendo, the "Way of the Sword".  Kendo aims to improve mind and body through the practice of the Katana, the Japanese sword, and is among the oldest and most traditional of the Japanese martial arts.

The club's membership includes men and women ranging in age from pre-teens to fifties, with a wide range of experience.

The Mississauga Kendo Club is a proud member of the Canadian Kendo Federation.

 

 

CKF On-Line Registration

A reminder to all MKC members that the CKF requires all kendoka to register online. Registration is mandatory for all kendoka: Unless you are registered and keep your CKF dues up to date, you will not be allowed to participate in any CKF-sanctioned tournaments or gradings. Please check out the CKF web-site for more information and to register.

 

Check us out on Facebook

The MKC does have a Facebook group, and we encourage all to visit us there! As is often the case, facebook gets updated by members with pictures etc. much more readily than an "official" website :)
