Step onto the floor at DHMDK and you will quickly feel what makes the club special.
People train hard, respect one another and support each other’s progress.
Based at the Auburn Youth Centre in Lidcombe, DHMDK Kendo Club is led by Master Dwight Park and built on more than 30 years of Australian Kendo heritage. The club carries forward traditional Kendo values while offering a supportive environment for beginners, experienced practitioners, and everyone in between.
Whether you are completely new to Kendo or returning with experience, you will find a place to learn, challenge yourself, and grow alongside others who are committed to the same path.
