When

We train once a week on Fridays and occasional Wednesdays for 2 hours from 18:00 to 20:00.

Where

Oppsal Arena, Veltandsveien 49, Oslo.

Attire

As per tradition we where a top known as a keikogi, a belt known as an obi which supports the sword and a split skirt called a hakama. It is not necessary to have these items of clothing to start training but will be later on.

Equipement

We use two types of sword,s however, you will be provided with one to borrow to get you started until you know what to invest in later.

For iaijutsu we use an iaito which is simply an unsharpened replica of the real deal though quite authentic in it’s own right. They come in various sizes and weights and have endless possibilities for customization. The sword was the soul of the samurai so personalisation comes naturally.

For kenjutsu we use a wooden sword called a bokken or bokuto. These too come in many types of wood depending on personal preference.
