there are no club to my knowledge in Antwerp... sorry
the nearest one might be in Breda, whith the Netherlands Federation www.naginata.nl

But the Kenbukan, is giving courses on Sunday and my club on Friday, which may give you a chance to practice during the week.

By the way the Belgian championship is held on the 6th of December from 14 to 17 pm at the Centre Sportif de la Foret de Soignes, which is a sport center right at the entrance of the motorway E411. The nearest metro station is Herman Debroux.
