Jōdan no Kamae, the iconic high stance of Kendo, embodies offensive spirit, determination, and self-mastery. Yet, practicing it remains demanding, sometimes marginal, and often lacking accessible resources.This website was born from a simple realization: many Jōdan practitioners are looking for guidance, shared experiences, and learning materials… often on their own.

 Our goal is to change that.
Here, you’ll find a dedicated space for understanding, learning, and exchanging around Jōdan: technical articles, videos, interviews, gear tips, personal insights, and more. But above all, this site aims to become a rallying point for everyone practicing (or wanting to practice) Jōdan—regardless of level.Whether you’re a curious beginner, an experienced kendōka, or a passionate teacher: welcome to the path of Jōdan.
