Where the Saskatoon Kendo Club Practices and How to Get in Touch

Updated

The Saskatoon Kendo Club practices at the YMCA in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada, and the site directs inquiries to a contact named Neil. If you are looking for the training location or a way to ask about joining, those are the two details the club's homepage provides. The same page also notes that the club holds an annual seminar every February.

Practice Location

  • City: Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada
  • Facility: YMCA
  • Club size: about 50 members

The homepage states the club practices at the YMCA in Saskatoon but does not list a street address, a practice schedule, or specific training days. For those details, you would need to contact the club directly.

Contacting the Club

The site's stated route for more information is to contact Neil. The homepage does not publish an email address, phone number, or contact form in the available excerpt, so the practical next step is to look for contact details on the site itself — for example, a contact page or a link attached to Neil's name.

When you reach out, it helps to ask about the things the homepage leaves open:

  • Practice days and times
  • Whether beginners can start at any time or join a specific intake
  • What to bring or wear for a first session
  • Any fees or membership requirements

Club Background

A few facts from the homepage are useful if you are deciding whether to inquire:

Detail Information
Founded 1981
Founder / instructor Ken Miyaoka (Miyaoka-sensei)
Instructor experience Over 50 years
Instructor rank Nanadan (7th degree)
Members who reached 1st degree or higher Dozens since founding
Annual seminar Every February

The club has been running since 1981 and is led by an instructor with more than 50 years of experience, which may matter if you are choosing between clubs and want a long-established program.

What to Do Next

  1. Go to the club's website and find the contact information for Neil.
  2. Send a message stating you are interested in kendo and asking about practice times, beginner eligibility, and fees.
  3. If you want to observe first, ask whether visitors can watch a practice at the YMCA before committing.

The homepage does not state pricing, membership costs, or a drop-in policy, so treat those as open questions to confirm with the club rather than assumptions.
