• At the FIK Shinpan Seminar held in Burnaby, Canada on January 25-26, 2020, the All Japan Kendo Federation new regulations (effective April 2019) for shinai and dogu were announced. These new rules are proposed to FIK (International Kendo Federation), with the plan to make them effective by the time of the World Kendo Championships in Paris, France in 2021. Attached is a copy of the new rules, as well as my summary.
