Word of advice for Brunei Kendo

"Waza must be practised until they become a part of you, and you can react immediately and instinctual without thinking towards anything that is going to or open up to you in Kendo"
This is Ki Ken Tai Ichi & Mushin.

Words for Kenshis

For Students: "Kendo can be an Educational pathway from where you are to an University or a Higher Institution, as long as you never give up and always have full concentration and a calm heart to achieved in your school life. Remember we all are a student in life, everyday is new for us to learn."

For UBDian: " Kendo is a culture which you can learn and share at the same time. Being where you all are now proof that you have gone a long way, but it is never the end yet. There is always something to learn as long as your heart is open. Always be patient"

For Every Kenshis: David Chan Sensei once said, Rome is not build in a day, and Itsu Demo Ki Ken Tai Ichi.
