We are pleased to announce the Philippine delegation set to compete at the prestigious 19th World Kendo Championships (WKC) happening in Milan, Italy this 4-7 July 2024.

Last week (Mar 14 to 17), the UKFP was very lucky to have hosted two visitors from Japan, Kamei Toru Sensei (8Dan Hanshi) and Sanada Kazuaki Sensei (7Dan). They were originally here just for a vacation, but on the request of one of our locally based sensei they graciously agreed to have keiko with us and conduct a seminar.

We will be welcoming many guests from outside of Metro Manila during the 5th PNKT next month. To help you find a place to stay during the event, we are suggesting the following nearby hotels and lodging options:

It is our pleasure to announce that we will be holding the 5th Philippine National Kendo Tournament (PNKT) in October this year.

The UKFP will be holding a series of Gasshuku (Training Camps) in order to help prepare the Philippine Kendo Team Training Pool to participate in the World Kendo Championships next year in Milan, Italy. While the main focus of these Gasshuku will be the Training Pool members, any and all kendoka who want to improve their shiai/competition skills are invited to attend these camps.

The 1st Mindanao Regional Kendo Shinsa (official Kendo grading) happened last Sunday, April 2, 2023! First of all we would like to congratulate all those who earned their kyu and dan grades!

The UKFP BOT has made updates on the health and safety guidelines in response to the current COVID-19 situation. These guidelines are based on the current recommendations put out by various Philippine government agencies, and also based on the experience of practicing kendo over the past year (when practices officially opened).
