Kendo Fun Facts

Kendo practitioners wear protective gear called bogu, which includes a helmet (men), a chest protector (do), gloves (kote), and a waist protector (tare), all designed to mimic ancient samurai armor.
Kendo matches are typically won by scoring points known as ippon, which is awarded for a clean, decisive strike to specific target areas on the opponent's body, emphasizing precision and control over brute strength.
