MINEHAHA KENDO DOJO
Japanese Sword Art

Minnehaha Kendo Dojo was started in 1995 by Bob Cochran, Sensei.
We are a part of the Midwest Kendo federation and practice traditional Japanese kendo. We often attend tournaments and seminars around the Midwest and will on occasion bring in guest instructors
​

​Kendo is the Japanese martial art of swordsmanship using bamboo swords (shinai) and protective armor (bogu).
At Minnehaha Kendo Dojo, we focus on building strong fundamentals for which all advanced techniques rest on and for which advancement in rank and success in tournaments are essential. We place an emphasis on training hard, training correctly, and having fun all while following traditional Japanese etiquette.
Kendo, like all martial arts, is a great way to build character, discipline, and confidence.
