Kendo is an old martial art that reflects the spirit of the samurai. Unlike other martial arts that focus on specific aspects of samurai swordsmanship, kendo tends to be highly competitive. In practice, this means that kendo practitioners often engage in one-on-one fights. This naturally leads to a stronger focus on techniques that are effective in actual combat.
