Bokken Rotation Registration

Posted on March 19, 2026

We're excited to offer you a great new weapons seminar and rotation coming up in April.  In a few weeks, you'll have an opportunity to learn Bokken (sword) beginning with a seminar on April 7, followed by an 8-week class rotation. We'll be covering weapon safety and handling and learning skills that will allow us to build combos and a form. This is a popular weapon, and lots of fun to work with, so be sure to save your spot. This rotation is open to students ages 8 and up with a GOLD belt or higher.

Bokkens are available in foam or wood. Foam weapons are recommended for students under age 12 and those who have no prior weapon-handling experience. For this group, wooden bokkens would require instructor approval.
