Kendo Warm-Up Exercises
This page looks at how to do Kendo warm-up exercises. Watch this Japanese instructor lead his class so you can learn new stretches and warm-up routines.
Martial arts instructors use warm-up routines in order to loosen muscles and boost heart rates. This helps to prepare martial arts students for the more vigorous martial arts training that follows the warm-up session and hopefully reduces potential injuries that might come from tight muscles and tendons.
All stretches and exercises should be supervised by a trained martial arts instructor in order to prevent injuries and to ensure the proper technique is utilized. For additional stretches and exercises, please visit the main Martial Arts Warm-Up Exercises and Stretching sections.
