COVID Protocols: Full COVID vaccination is preferred, but not required. If you're sick, please stay home!

​

What would I need to start?

Read with close attention the FAQ section, Protocols and Etiquette before coming in. If you don't have the kyudogi (uniform) you can wear black or navy sports pants, white socks and white t-shirt/club t-shirt.  

Beginners will be taught the kihontai (fundamental form) and shaho-hassetsu (eight stages of shooting) in the first sessions. Some other knowledge about practicing kyudo, including kyudo equipment and dojo protocol will also be covered. Kyudo training requires commitment. As such, the introductory sessions are only meant to provide a general introduction to allow you to decide whether if you want to commit to this practice.

Learning the additional movements (Tai Hai) and perfecting your shooting technique in Kyudo is a journey that will last a lifetime.

​

How much are the classes?

​

• $85 for Beginner's Course (for ~8 weeks of instructions)

• $35 for monthly membership (pre-req: completing Beginner's Course or prior Kyudo experience)

We strongly suggest you look into purchasing a copy of the Kyudo Manual Volume 1: Principles of Shooting (Shaho) Revised Edition. ​
