KENZAN Dojo, was born as a no-profit sportive club, at Gallarate in 1987. The founder members practiced Kendo and Kyudo (Japanese art of archery).
The first trainings were held in a dojo from where one could see a beautiful sight of Mount Rosa (the second highest mountain of the Alps); from there the idea to unite to spirit of the sword, "Ken", and that of the mountain, "Zan", which you see in the kanji on side.
From a group of brave volunteers, KENZAN Club evolved in a constant point of reference to Italian practitioners, thanks also to the collaboration of prestigious Sensei of several Japanese universities.
