About This Campaign
#SendRayAway
Ray FLEMING sensei, 80 years old, has been doing Kendo (the Japanese martial art of the sword) for over 40 years, and still continues to train as vigorously as ever up to 3x a week!
Ray sensei first saw kendo during his time in Japan as a Judoka (person who practises Judo, another Japanese martial art similar to that of wrestling). He started his Kendo journey when he came to South Africa, and played an integral part in developing Kendo during those early years by fulling various executive roles on the national Kendo federation, the South African Kendo Federation (SAKF). Furthermore, he had helped establish a number of dojo's within South Africa including the Ken Yu Kai Dojo, Mushin Dojo, San Kawa Dojo and the Ryu Ken Chi Dojo. Furthermore, he has also been a positive influence to many Kendoka not only in South Africa, but also in countries abroad such as Malawi and Mauritius! His contribution has been invaluable to so many people, which is evident in this recent 80th birthday tribute:Read More
