Temat: ISTOTA KENDO

Istota KENDO wg. Sensei MASASHI SHIKAI

"No matter what we do in life, we need to try our best, never give up, and be honest. The etiquette, manners, patience, and discipline are principles and values that can be applied to our lives but that is something that pretty much all martial arts have. One thing that I see that maybe different is this: when we fight in Kendo , once we attack . . . we go through. We keep constant pressure and keep hitting even beyond the point of contact. This action teaches that no matter what, even if we get hit . . . we need to keep going after our goal. Focus on the target and don't let anything stop you...."
