Gi & Hakama Fund

Being able to afford a Kendo gi and hakama can be an obstacle to new students committing to Zen training. This is true for local students, as well as live-ins flying into Hawaii from far away. That's why we are excited to have started a collection of gi and hakama to loan to new students until they can afford to buy their own.

Rather than go to just a few generous individuals to supply the range of sizes needed, our goal is widespread dojo participation. That's why we're asking as many dojo members as possible to pitch in just $20.
