The All Japan Kendo Federation is currently planning to hold the 118th Kyoto Enbu Taikai in May 2022. The taikai has been cancelled for the previous two years. 

If you haven’t done so already, any individuals of 6th dan and above planning to participate, you are asked to contact internationalaffairs@britishkendoassociation.com as soon as possible. Detailed information will be available from the AJKF the week commencing 14th February. 

Please note that travel restrictions to Japan are still in place, and there is a chance that the Kyoto Taikai could be again cancelled. So please note, that the BKA is not responsible for event cancellation or any issues arising from it – health or otherwise – that may occur. Please check the Government’s travel advice websites for restrictions and guidelines should you wish to travel.

If you have any questions, please contact DIA.
