Stefan Kirschnick german student

Stefan Kirschnick, a german student living in Ingolstadt is also practicing Kendo at Kyumeikan.
I have met him on the weekend. He is currently working in an internship at Mitsubishi Fuso in Tokyo. He started Kendo 2 months ago at Kyumeikan.
He told me that his Kendo experience so far has been amazing and that he is enjoying it a lot. Even though it brings a lot of hardship , especially at the beginning, he told me that the very challenge of Kendo is to overcome these and improve oneself continously.
He also appreciates the friendship and helpfulness of all the members of Kyumeikan dojo , which is something very special.
Because there are also some foreigners practicing kendo in the dojo, it is even easier with their help to improve at the beginning.
Stefan wants to continue Kendo until June and will take his 1kyu exam in May.
Lets hope that he will make it!
