Kendo World is a combination of three types of media devoted
to the art of Japanese sword fencing (kendo), and the dissemination
of its vast practical, philosophical and historical aspects to the
non-Japanese speaking kendo community.
Kendo World Magazine
is a quarterly print publication packed full of articles on kendo
and related budo arts (iaido, jodo, jukendo, naginata, and koryu
arts). The magazine was founded in 2001 by the editors Alex Bennet
and Hamish Robison. Kendo World Magazine is published in Japan (and
printed in Auckland, New Zealand) by KW Publications LTD., which
has also started publishing additional works on kendo and other
budo arts.
Kendo World
Forums are online forums where the international kendo
community can interact with each other and the Kendo
World Team, a very valuable experience.
Kendo World Online
acts as a web-resource and helps to tie the magazine and the forums
together. The website features articles
from the magazine, event information, links to worldwide kendo federations
and much more.
The articles for Kendo World are written by an international network
of experienced martial artists spread across Japan and the world.
Translations of articles and books published in Japanese, including
our staunch supporter Kendo Jidai magazine, are included in many
of our pages. We also accept submissions
from qualified members of the martial arts community.
The Kendo World Team is constantly trying to improve not only the
quality of the magazine, but the strength of the international kendo
community. We would like to thank you for your interest in Kendo
World, and look forward to seeing you in the forums.
