Kendo, the Japanese martial art of swordsmanship, is more of a self-discipline rather than a self-defense. Its practices are vigorous and demanding; the art is challenging and fun to learn. If you are a person seeking a "way" to self development, and not merely trophies, Kendo training may be for you.
The Choyokan Kendo Dojo was established in 1979 and is a nonprofit organization registered with the State of Illinois. Founded by Miyazaki Sensei, the Dojo has slowly grown due largely to the efforts of Miyazaki Sensei and a core group of students. The Dojo is now fortunate to have hosted several guest Sensei over the years from Japan and other parts of the world. Kendo practice classes Ravenswood
